bassmayhem Posted Saturday at 11:52 Posted Saturday at 11:52 I sold eight basses to finance this one, now in the making. It will be a once-in-a-lifetime build for me by my luthier of choice: Christian Olsson at Unicorn Bass. Here is a close-up of the headstock just to show the incredibly grained 3000 years old redwood face. The body of the bass will have the same top and backside, so it will be just gorgeous. It will be an unlined fretless five string with one pickup in wooden housing. No controls , pots or switches, just plain wood. Except for the bridge and tuning machines. Long wait, but within reach... ❤️ https://www.unicornbass.se/ 13 Quote
White Cloud Posted Saturday at 14:58 Posted Saturday at 14:58 This is going to be an amazing instrument. I greatly admire Unicorn basses. Can't wait to see it. 1 Quote

Maude Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago You think he'd of at least ironed the top and bottom before glueing it up, it's all wrinkled! Seriously though, it looks superb. It still amazes me that a flat slice of tree can have such a 3d effect as this. It looks like a satin sheet. Quote
