+1, looking forward to seeing how this one turns out

custom build, in honour of my new shuker, however i do have 2 warwicks also

ah...this one caught my eye as well, lovely instrument indeed...my GAS has been quashed for the moment, but i've a funny feeling my next bass could be shuker NT

[quote name='Tinman' post='1530' date='May 18 2007, 04:10 PM']I'll be watching this with the utmost interest. Looks like it's going to be amazing.[/quote]

me to, theres nothing like a good build thread!

[quote name='Tinman' post='1317' date='May 18 2007, 12:04 PM']I get the feeling that you're absolutely right.
Sorry Bassmonster, I did mean to say in my previous post that your Bass is stunning, it's just that succumbing to GAS has left me quite lightheaded[/quote]

Hey Tinman

what model you going for?


thanks to everyone for the comments, btw just got an email from Jon, he's thinking of adding it to his homepage, and it will be in the gallery, i think he's quite pleased how it turned out.

i love the slab look of the body, and the neck scoop

love the finish on the carvin

i've always found fender jazz basses odd looking, with the exception of the two models above, think its the block inlays and the maple boards which appeal..nice basses btw.

lovely bass, i have to agree my jazzman has never let me down either, warwick have their critics, but i love em!

was it just the machine heads you changed on doodle?, how cool are those gunmetal ones though!

Its does look nice, looking forward to seeing how it turns out

been after one for a while....but no more spending for me..at least for a while

i love the look of these, shame cort don't do a lefty version
