BassTool

Sorry to add this after your hard work, but for info, 36 years ago I defretted a neck and used a darkish woodfiller rather than wooden inserts. Finished the rosewood board with a darker stain and waxed after fine sanding. I was never bothered about changing neck profile etc as the neck was perfectly playable whilst fretted. It's never let me down since. Audiences may disagree mind, as my band mates always referred to it as my Tuneless bass.... 😖

Great job I'd be well chuffed with that

I'm wondering if it ran back into the jungle....

Great frog story! 😂🤣 Bostick was a pain, all that string coming off the tube, kids these days are missing out sitting in front of screens instead of blowing up kitchens and chopping up frogs IMO Anyhow, back to the Camphor Burl, did it get filled? 🤭

Ahhhh, the good old days pre H&S For those not of a certain age ( I'm guessing you and I are similar SpondonBassed ) I think he may be referring to this 70's toy... https://www.pinterest.com/pin/292311832051583702/ Not wanting to hijack the thread, but I also remember almost blowing up my mates kitchen with his Chemistry 6 set.... 🤣 The joys of two 9 year olds and a methylated spirits burner.. 😲

How much???????! Crazy. 😲

Brilliant! 😎

Brilliant, that's him! The Greek, I need to know what you've been drinking!

Nice one! Looks great 😎

Or the short eared rabbit/squirrel face at the top? 😄

Anyone else see the angry ape in this? It stares at me every time, legs apart and arms by sides..... Or should I see my optician? 😂

WOW! Missed this somehow, stunning Andy!

Bought a bass from Graham, great comms, quick transaction, speedy delivery and well wrapped guitar. Buy/sell with confidence 😎

I was at my daughters house the other day and asked her for a newspaper. ' Blimey get with the times Dad' she said as she passed me her iPad thing..... .....I'll tell you what, that bluebottle didn't know what the **** had hit it

WTF?! I never thought I'd see the day these two influences of mine would collide/collude.... Got to say, its not pretty...

Nice job that! Not really any drawbacks I can think of, I'm sure more knowledgeable folks will chip in, but I'd say go for it

That looks great!

.....and....back on topic That looks absolutely amazing. Well done that man, stunning work

Headless If only to see the perplexed look on the average punters face when you step onstage with it

Great work and pics, I'd like to hear them too

Just caught up with this build diary, superb workmanship

Agreed... ....and then he teases us that it looks lush without any photographic evidence
