It's a Shuker, but not as we know it.

Yeah, we'll go with that. My suggestion was a lot more obscene.

I don't see how being good with watch repairs is obscene..... :)

Tell that to Sylar.


No news for a while. Still waiting :)

I knew the 4 week completion date was a tad optimistic :lol:

I asked Jon for an update on my bass this week and he said that he's finishing off 4 JJ Burnell sig basses at the moment and he will resume work on my bass shortly. Sounds like he's absolutely swamped!

email from Jon:

We're not far off, I'm hoping I'll get most of it together this weekend. All the 'making' is done and its just a case of assembly. I have to spray the headpiece but thats a quick job. If I get it all together this weekend then it should be ready for you in about 10 days from then, just so it has plenty of time to settle down and I can do any necessary adjustments to the setup[/i].

so only 2 weeks to go :)

whens this due to arrive? i'm looking forward to pictures of this, i've been watching this thread closely, its going to be a great looking bass when its done.

[quote name='MacDaddy' post='306721' date='Oct 14 2008, 10:17 PM']only a gap of about 2 1/2 months :rolleyes:

Right, here's the body front and back. As you know from my spec I want as purple as possible without actually being black, and Jon assures me that is the case in normal light.





the only other thing is that there will be 6 bolts in the neck joint.[/quote]

The carve on back looks awesome. This isn't helping me hold back on commissioning a Shuker :)

I'm liking the Ibanez style monkey grip its got. IS it just there for the sake of being there, or will you use it properly? Throwing your bass around, etc.

yep ergonomically designed for comfort :rolleyes: And go for it, if you can think it, Jon can probably make it.

Hell yeah it will be used properly! Aesthetics aside, this bass has been designed to be played.
