Sorry about the delays for those following this thread, fulltime work really does leave a lack of spare time so I have just been a lurker for a while and not really had time to post.
So heres a few updates ive received from Alan lately:
The mac ebony fretboard slotted:

Body now looking like a bass, this was in my dreams for a few days

It really is nice to see things coming together! Can't wait to play what will undoubtedly be my dream bass!
Alan really is great for passing on progress reports etc aswell, highly recommended so far!
