It is finished. I might sell it in the future. It's VERY heavy and sound great! Very stingray like. - Musicman bridge from 1987 - Status neck, with musicman logo > brand new - Basslines pickup - Custom pre-amp - Custom neckplate - Schaller tuners

Update of the neck And I decided to matte out th ebass. The see through finish showed too much of the black grounding in my opinion. And to be honest the "frosted" matte look, looks classier and less as a gimmick. Hope you all like the progress.

Never saw that before

That looks incredible!

Yes, I've held several acrylic basses and I'm ok with it 🙂 Same here, I'm always attracted to see through things in general. I remember having a see through gameboy when I was a kid and loved it as well. I'll post more when I get them 🙂 Eventually a professional photographer will take pics of it.

Ow they are polished, it's fully polished actually but I'll post more pictures when the luthier sends them 🙂

The "Acrylic stingray" is almost ready: The story behind this is quite simple. I'm an enormous stingray fan (we all are I guess) and already own two of them. But I also love the EGC acrylic line, and love how all those clear guitars look. They're something else, art pieces almost. I played a Dan Armstrong a few times and loved the weight and clear (pun intended) sound. Sure it's heavy, but I can manage it. So I thought to combine the look of the original stingray with a Dan Armstrong/EGC. I ordered a custom made acrylic block from a Dutch Laboratory, I got the seymour duncan humbucker for free (when the store owner heard about the project), I found a stingray special bridge online, ordered a Status graphite stingray neck and had a custom preamp made (that was also free). There was a test run done with a cnc in wood and this week the acrylic was made. Sorry for the bad pic, they're screengrabs of videos. The body still needs some polishing but after that it's PERFECT. The specs are exactly the same as an original stingray body. I can't wait for this to be finished but I'm still looking for an official six bolt neckplate though ... Made by Dimitri Derwael of elinore guitars. (I know that some people will call this a gimmick. I don't want this to be a gimmick, I want this to be a bass with good materials and an unique look. I've researched this for 2 years (what plexi to use, etc.) and the fact that companies like EGC charges 3000 euro's for basses like this says something right? Hopefully some of you think it's nice

thank you! 😀
