Yup, the builder has a great setup and obviously knows what he's doing down to a T, I'm sure you'll have a fab bass

Bonjour Tom! I do love it when someone is showing off his new bass being built and then the luthier joins the forum as well.

I love the thin black lines on the neck. Beautiful work.

Do you make your own preamps also !

Christ! That's a skilled craftsman at work. Fascinating to see how that has been done. Hat's off. [size=4] [/size]

[ezbass]

The confidence in one's own abilities to wield a chisel like that is amazing; I wish I had those woodworking chops. Thanks for posting that.

[DolganoFF]

Young but talented

[sprocket123]

Outstanding craftsmanship.....and a very tidy workshop. Respect!

[JazzRay]

Veery veeery nice, you're an inspiration

[Pasco Jacorius]

I can't wait to have this beauty in my hands !

[Pasco Jacorius]

Not that I want to enhance your GAS but , here I am again with some pics of the making of the backplate and electronic compartment ,( no screws , just little magnets to maintain the whole thing), and also , you can see the beginning of the belly contour. Enjoy !

Loving the detail touches to this Bass, very thoughtful and beautifully executed. Not sure about the long term security of magnets to hold the back plate on. Interesting tho'

[Pasco Jacorius]

These are neodydium , heavily charged , don't worry for that !
