Looks incredible, as everyone else has said
I want one, I want one....

Please don't go as far as the matching codpiece tho...... :)

Haha no the codpiece probably won't happen. :D

I have been approached by someone interested in the idea of developing a 3D pattern though. So who knows, maybe you can have one. :)

This bass is even more crazy in the wood as it were, how it stays in one piece I have no idea :) I'd be interested in how far the gap between the horn the bridge is attached to and the side of the skull closes when it's strung and tuned though.

Dunno if this has been mentioned but I was reminded of this build when I spotted this bass on eBay:

Time to cash in Rich!

Aye seen it. I like it. They've taken the carving to the next level... but I bet is sounds like crap with the pup way back there. :D
Definitely food for thought though.

The detail work is great but I think the back looks way too plain, looks like he's also used a cheapy neck off a VIntage or Aria or something.Still looks cool though, not sure I'd cough up £1.4k for it mind.

The pickup placement puzzled me too, I quite like a MM about 2cm from the bridge but that looks almost touching. Wouldn't mind hearing it though.

Only just read the thread. Not quite my style, but a very impressive build !

How exactly did you do the bridge earthing with copper tape in the end ? Simply put tape on the rear of the body and then paint over it ?

Cheers man.
It comes out the control cavity (as can be seen in one of the pics) then goes around the inside of the cut out round the horn to the bridge. I left it visible as it looks kinda [s]cool[/s] ... er... bass-nerdy. :D
