The next build….walnut Jazz bass

[Silky999]

So the walnut jazz bass has been started. The knot in the next pocket is a pain but I am going to fill it with black epoxy and make a feature of it. 
 

This one is my own shape with a short top horn and a few mm shorter body length that is less curved across the bottom. 
 

It will be hand oil sanded and I might put a  few coats of gloss nitro clear coat over the oil when it’s cured. I think it might be a stunner!

Thanks folks for the lovely comments. 
 

So I have filled the knot in the neck pocket today with some black Milliout epoxy to make a feature and stabilise it. There was also a slight splinter that came out on the edge of the pocket so sorted that as well
