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.

SJ Jazz Fest

Erik and Pat playing on two of my kits with Jazz Mofia's- Brass, Bows, and Beats at the San Jose Jazz Fest's Repertory Theater.

Pinstriping

Just got some awesome samples back from my buddy Frank. Can't wait to see what this Bass will look like finished...

Finishing

Dieing and finishing the bass, this is only the second coat on the back so far.

now completed, the side rails have been attached. Next will be a layer of finish.

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.

Here, I've sanded most of the finish off.
