Following Ped's suggestion to start our own thread for gear built by BC builders/luthiers, I'll start off with my two builds by Andyjr1515.

The Psilos:

The Silk Bass (who says you can't make a Silk Purse...)

Thanks Andy. 

I have to say I am still delighted with this bass. Very grateful to Andy for agreeing to this project.

Watching the build on here was amazing, as was Andy's communications as we bandied ideas back and forth. 

The tonal variations that can be obtained are awesome. Dimarzzio M1 at neck and a MM clone at bridge (much higher output than MM pup) and some series parallel switching of both.

 It is a delight to play and just feels right in my hands. It has become my go to bass. And is always a conversation piece at gigs.

Lest I forget it (not that you could ever forget such a shape), the Mouradian-esque built for @gelfin  :)

I’m normally a bit more traditional in my bass tastes, but I really like the look of this!

I can’t stop looking at this bass. It really is probably the most lovely thing I’ve seen in years. Absolutely stunning.

Ha ha @Jakester you can definitey come again!  Thanks for that, I'm really glad you like it.  There's a build thread somewhere.....'old up... (albeit I notice some of the pic links are broken....)

It is a beautifully realised piece.
