Guess it's my turn. This is my second build. I had so much fun with the first, and learned so much I just had to give it another go! I started out wanting to do something with organic and real life colors. Larry picked some great woods for me and said it looked like a Desert Sunrise, then my brother sent me of a beautiful picture of a Sunrise in the Arizona desert....and this bass was born. The 36" scale is awesome, it really creates more responsiveness due to tighter string tension (at least that's my opinion) So here it is......
