Cliff Bordwell ball bass

Originally custom made for Kev Hopper (like my fretless ACG), this is a stunning little bass with 32" scale and ultra slim neck (1.35" nut). Obviously  the design takes inspiration from Carl Thompson. Conveniently the initials are the same as my FaceBook moniker Clarky Bass, in case I forget who I am.

Plays super fast and sounds very gnarly. As does my (pictured) sausage dog Pablo

Thought I'd update this thread with some visible pics as the @Clarky ones appear to have gone.

Interesting to see this was once Kev Hoppers bass, presumably he commissioned it.

I love it, it's a beautifully crafted bass with Nordstrand pups encased in ebony surrounds with matching ramp and knobs and it to my ears, sounds great. One of my mates calls it my Salvador Dali bass  :)
