Tomomi's Short Scale Coco Bolo Series
« on: January 13, 2010, 07:22:20 PM »
All the parts are starting to come together for your short scale bass. Here's the body core glued up:

 (the Coco Bolo for the top and back is stacked up under the core)  The fingerboard with the abalone inlays, side LEDs and front Laser LEDs:

  And of course the neck:

  I will resize the images of the body woods I previously emailed and post them here shortly to complete the build record.
