I love it...

I ****ing love it.

It has been my favorite bass for some months, one that I will definetely buy (except mine will have 5 strings). The fretboard is birdseye maple right?

Give it to me.... or go to hell =(.

I just recieved the Schecter Custom 5'er for crimmus, and I couldn't be happier. It's a beautiful bass with stupendous tone.

Im confused, is that just a photoshopped mock up of what you want to get done?
Or is it enroute to you?

I like the contrasting darker wood around the body. I think if the fretboard had a binding that color and if there were some way to incorperate that color into the headstock, it might bring it out more.

I'm still so f-ing jealous of you.

Just wait until my equinox bass gets finished...then we'll see who has the better bass.

It's a photoshop mockup - but I think the actual thing will be done fairly soon. :)

Thanks for the comments everyone.


Yep, its just a photoshop :D The finished neck will be expected around late January/Early February :thumb:

What's hapnin' with the headstock? Isn't it going to be a Shuker one?:smash:

Jamie
12-26-2005, 02:28 PM
Yeah, its going to be the shuker one. Thing is, the neck I used on that picture was from an Orange burst Fbass and the headstock was orange, so it looked out of place so I just stuck the shecter one in for purpose of the picture.

It looks really ace.

How much is it going to cost you though? :amaze:

So the head on the actual thing will be something like this:

But not in that colour - that's just the closest I could find. :D

Paul: £250 :)

WM: Yep! Thats the shape

fatbandit
12-26-2005, 03:49 PM
I think that headstock is a bit... Eww...

I thought he'd have more taste than that :/

Second one.

Jamie
12-26-2005, 04:18 PM
Ahhh, good :D


Yeah, I can't believe he's doing it for so cheap! And he said if I was willing to wait a bit longer he'd find me an extremely figured piece of birdseye maple :)
