Hi Johan, Here's some of the progress on your custom bass: You'll see some smears of silver shielding paint and glue, pencil and chalk marks too - these will all be removed as the bass moves along. |

Now your bass is in the carving department and routed: There's still more carving to complete before it heads into spray. |

BEAUTIFUL! Am I the only one, ---but I just don't like the "stinger" bit in the omega cut. Now a heart shape omega--------that's real class G |

George, You are not the only one who does not like the 'stinger'. Of course if I owned this lovely bass with the coco bolo to to die for, I would learn to love it. |

I am also not a big fan of the "stinger". But other than that it looks like a beautiful bass. |

I have a Mark King Bass right now in the making with the same body design. I'm curious to know how your bass feels with playability, balance and how you like the stinger point. |
