I have a 6 string Sc on its way also - in design at the moment) He works for Overwater and it was his first Jazz build - start to finish (he actually worked on the Copper Jazz also). As it was a custom job I was around a lot to see how things were going and lend a hand as and when. Here he is sanding a Perception . . .

RichBowman Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Hey Stu, Your basses are flipping gorgeous! Wow! I wondered what had happened to the fretless build - It looks stunning - really beautiful! So - pray tell about this Single cut in the pipelines......Is it going to be another Overwater themed one? Unless I've been blind, would that be the first they've made? Cheers, Rich P.S.

EdwardHimself Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 (edited) if only the fretless had frets, actually that's pretty much the only reason you still have it and i'm not noodling on it right now at my house Edited July 11, 2007 by EdwardHimself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
