Fingerboard

I've finished all the staining, Frank pinstriped, and now I'm glueing the fingerboard back down to the neck. A little more touch up to the finish around the neck, and it'll be ready for re-assembly.

Headstock

It had been dropped at one time and the spiral head peace broke off. Here, I've just carved down the jagged piece and made a new spiral.

Bare Naked Bass

I've stripped off all the old finish and sanded away all the dents and scratches. Now it's ready for some new finish.
