Jeff's Tribute Bass

[foth]

Hey, will there be a pic of this bass together with Justin's Further?

Why is this bass for sale at Bass Central for $9999 delivered?

It was the wrong neck shape for Flax.

There was a miscomminication about the string spacing. This bass got the regular comfort taper.

[davr35]

Flax sent me a nice e-mail about why it's up for sale.. now if I only had $9999 to spare

[foth]

There's nothing like a series, Jeff.  The notes just punch into you, even at low volumes.  Good choice!

As Homer Simpson might say:
 
mmmmmmmmm, burl.....
 
Nice choice.  Can't wait to see it.

hard choices for which on top- we still be going with bookmatch to center and p/u covers and continuous backs. photos in the wood bank are more detailed

I KNOW I have a strange way to look at things but am I Seeing a face with eyes closed in the left piece? Radiant light is coming from behind is head.
The Radiant ...seems like a name for this project?!

Flax,
 Both pieces are beatiful, but #6 looks like the face of a cat to me. I think it would make a perfect front, but even moreso given this bass being dedicated to scooter. This will be another bass that all in the group will be eager to watch the progress of.
 
Best Wishes, Pete

Jeff.
I'd go with pete on this one - no 6 would make a perfect front for your scooter tribute. Can't wait to see the finished piece.

happy new year, woods!
 
looks like another classic already.

Jeff- The above photos of your cat freaked me out a litle. I have a 17-year-old tortoise shell cat named Louie, who looks ALOT like Scooter. I've been dreading losing Louie for awhile now, as she's getting to be pretty old. Needless to say, I can relate to your loss, as well as your wish to dedicate an instrument to Scooter.
 
By the way, I also want to ask you a question about Dire Wolf. Are you completely happy with the sound and feel of the B string with a 32 scale? I'm thinking about a shorter-scale Alembic 5-string myself...
 
Happy New Year to all!
