Hey guys, Just thought I'd share the newest thing to leave my workshop. What you guys think? I might have to get around to making a thread of my builds for you guys

looks very cool indeed I like the finish, what kind of wood is the body?

Its Victorian mountain as. Its also one of the oldest trees in the world. Its quite abundant here in Australia and its quite the sustainable wood. I plan on using it as a stable for alot of my builds. Very stable and very uniformed. The grain is pretty much always dead straight so its the truest quatersawn down the whole body.

That's beautiful.
And being a Fender guy I dig that it's sort of 'Jazz Master' shaped.

I like it, it will age nicely

Very interesting build! How does it sound?
I like the jack/knobs plate, it reminds me of a telecaster guitar. I must say that I would be missing a pickguard on a bass like this, it just looks "naked" this way

Yeah I made that custom plate to give it that tele edge which is a style the customer also liked. From the feedback the customer gave me its very clear and very punchy and is over the moon with it
