My first post on LeftyBassist.

De afwerking mk3-5.

35 Inch scale with Bartolini X5 pickups and Glockenklang 3 band preamp.

Only missing the truss rod cover, will be made this week.

A few detail shots.

wow very nice, and unique!

any neck dive with the short upper horn?

None, even though the body appears to be a hollow-body, it is chambered and heavy enough to prevent neck dive.

Very nice looking bass! Welcome to the forum....

I just noticed you mention DIY in your title... did you make this yourself? Did it come as a kit?

Build and designed it myself.

Nice job

Indeed! Do you have any sound clips of it?

No, and I don´t have the means to make some at the moment.

The finishing touch, the truss rod cover is done and in place.


And a few more shots.

All I can say is WOW! You have some serious skills, and obviously enough of the right tools/machines to produce this beautiful bass. Very impressive....

Sweet! you got sick skills man

Awesome! and welcome to the board man!

a big +1 on the sick skills!!!! Very very nice indeed

Awesome work that neck looks killer.

very pretty use of the multi woods

The next one is finished.

Beautiful!

love those fanned frets, and the carving job where the neck meets the body

Your DIYs are crazy good.

I've always been curious about fanned fretboards. Anyone played one? Are they difficult to get used to?

The only thing I see wrong with this bass is..... it's not mine! Again, a stellar job of designing and building a beautiful bass! Any chance of some sound clips of your basses? Would love to hear how they sound...
