Yeah, I saw that and corrected it. I don't want to confuse people and make them think that I'm going to the other side. ;D No "picks" for me.

The neck should be finished within a week. Since I received my ash body on Friday, I went ahead and started gluing and cutting the body wings.

I got the ash from gallerywoods. I've also cut out the top portion as well. I've got everything ready to mate with the neck. It may get shipped tomorrow. ;D :o (crosses fingers) I need to take more pictures.

As I slept last night, I was actually thinking about my next build. For some odd reason all I could see was a 5 string J bass with an amboyna burl top with gold hardware. Guess I need to start looking for the top.

Sorry for the late response, haven't had time to check the forums much lately but I was serious tho doc!  It looks like you're taking your time and trying to build a quality instrument.  If you can do the same thing backwards (well, mirrored) I'd be more than happy to field test the brand.  :)

More than likely, D'Addarios. I've tried plenty of strings, but I always end up playing this brand more than others. All my basses have them. I may give some Smith's a run first though.
