Try as I might, I just can't get on with the slab body.

This is a new Allparts trans butterscotch telecaster bass body, with the neck sourced from a New York luthier who specialises in aged finishing. He applied the logo too and supplied and fitted Gotoh tuners. The pickup is a Bloodstone Handwound Noiseless. All assembly and setup executed by my luthier, who made the natty (removable) thumb rest too! Although I bought the ferrules, the holes are currently capped as I didn't really require string though. It's lightweight and dead cool, currently strung with GHS Precision flats.

Can ship.

Trades maybe!

Nice looking bass..

 

..the thumb rest looks quite cool but is it removable without leaving any marks or holes?? 
 

..and is there something on the neck plate? Looks blurry?

Ha, blur is just the photography, it's a brand new build! The thumbrest is held on with double sided tape. No residue.

Great idea that thumb rest. I sold my Sting precision because I couldn't get on with the rounded edge to the pickup. GLWTS.
