David-
My bank account wishes you hadn't said that....

I agree on the Orion peghead. The only one I like more on this type of body style is the Elan peghead.

I'll sit on this FTC thread for awhile and see how things shake out.

Here's the first Jarrah Burl bass with a little finish in place:

Still a ways to go - it's quite time consuming for filling the large pores. I know I always say this, but in person, it's a total knockout!

Even from this side of the pond it still looks a total knockout Mica. What sort of tone do you think the mahogany, vermillion, ebony neck will give?

Graeme,

That question was already addressed - check Mica's first post under the first picture of the bass.

Wow, that does look nice! And a love the sound of that name, Jarrah!

Jarrah is a beautiful timber, the burl is even better. My house and most older houses in Western Australia have Jarrah floors. We have some really nice figured hard woods in this part of the world. A mate of mine who is a local luthier put me onto this mob down in Denmark (West Aus) who he buys timber off, check it out...

That is an absolutely spectacular bass. Pictures don't do it justice. And then there's the sound!
