Well, I have finally bitten the bullet and decided to have Tony finish some of my basses. I just had a daughter and don't want to be spraying in a makeshift spray booth anymore! Anyway, Tony's work is beyond superb and I wanted to show you my most recent update from him. There is an macacauba bolt -on double, and a flamed redwood on white walnut singlecut (this bass weighs next to nothing) Thanks Stephen |

i really like the body style of that top one. and the neck joint is very interesting as well, how exactly is that all joined together? |

Shad, It is pretty easy. If you look on my blog - back a couple of posts, you should be able to find enough pictures of how to do it. It is essentially a 4 in tenon and mortise into a body - then carved to my liking, using an alternate decorative wood to create the visual effects in the geometry of the carve. Nothing really special. Stephen |

The strips of wood in the neck shown are Wamara rosewood, or that is one of the ways it is marketed. Stephen |

Wamara? Never heard... Is it one of the 400 awesome Guyana woods? lol Anyways, the 3 tones or brown with the creamy color of the neck... Beautiful. |

Those things sure look comfy. Awesome designs! The finish on those also made me start craving fresh candy... -Ray H. |
