Simple, elegant and nice to look at. Cool.

Welcome and happy NBD Groatsworth. (You probably already know that NBD (New Bass Day) posts are required to carry images of the new acquisition else we send 'round the Spanish Inquisition.)

Welcome James.

I dunno, you know. Lots of folk put their food in fridges with the word SMEG in big letters on the door.

Welcome Aimee.

Ee it's a small world... but I wouldn't like to have to mic it up.

Welcome Kevin.

Welcome Matt. (That sounds a bit like name calling, soz.)

Welcome Thyco.

Welcome Phil.

Mmmm, tactile. That's a nicely shaped headstock too.

Showing us your holiday snaps might be considered self-indulgence. This photo montage however is obligatory. The BC lynch-mob would be after you if you held back. Mighty fine.

Welcome RoK. It would be great to see your progress in the Build Diaries.

Welcome Dave.

(Looks up human anatomy.)

Welcome Ger. Original sinners are always welcome.

At least you try them out and then know better on the next build. They're just flights of fancy until then.

You know how it works. You start with a nice idea for a P bass, it turns into a Trump baby-blimp six-string bass* just once and folk will remember that forever! Heeheehee. I shouldn't extract the urine. Your near spontaneous creativity is what makes your builds exciting. *I know it's really a guitar but I couldn't turn down that image when it popped up in a search. Call it bassist's licence.

Welcome Alguillo.

I have every confidence in you for the final leg Andy. Would a ratcheting Allen driver help? I can probably sort out something from my toolkit for you if it helps with the repetitive assembly/disassembly. PM me with the size if you like and I'll see what I've got.

and Given the way you've brought the grain out in that body, I would hope so. It's lovely.

and of course... anything could happen along the way. Heeheehee

Nice carve.

(Oh crap. Wrong Albert.)
