Title: Shoji's Vermilion Short Scale Custom
Post by: mica on July 07, 2011, 08:25:42 PM

Here's a few images I collected of your bass under construction.   Body halves on the shelf awaiting other parts:

  Everything ready for carving:

  Side of body with a little more sanding done to show those fantastic thick accent laminates:

  I thought I had some more pictures, but I couldn't find them on my first look through my collection. If I find them, I will post them here.

That look beautiful already. Loving those thick maple laminates. Has Pierreyves started a new standard?

 As you know, I got the email that you want the battery compartment recessed. But we're still on hold until we hear from you about any other changes.

I should probably learn to mind my own business, but whatever has happened is certainly between Alembic and Shoji; not for public consumption on the internet. I wouldn't want MY personal details that I've shared in private conversations posted in a blog for everyone to see.
