It's going to be called "pub bass". I reckon that single cut would be a little bit too boutique to fit the requirements...

More photos would be cool though.[/quote] Ah yes you mean this one - yes the top on that was certainly instrumental in my choice of top wood. I'd already decided on a very light dotless fingerboard It's not obvious but the body is subtly different as a result of the 21 frets vs 24, which means teh distance between the bridge and the end of the neck is longer, therefor ethe body is longer from strap lock to heel .. It's also wider across the base as it has more forearm wood as I like the "width" you get in a P bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to save up I didn't start the build diary until a long way into the build time That was fine by me.

Well done![/quote] Thanks BeLow, I think so too It's a tad difficult to be objective, of course, but I think both my bass babies are beautiful. What was a real surprise is how great the headstock looks. As Rich said it's almost worth the price alone ... Jon's new chrome signature is a very nice touch too.
