Episode #16 Finally! The bass is complete and Maddie will be taking it to college with her next week. This video has everything from wet-sanding all the way to attaching the strap locks (wet sanding, polishing, tuner install, fretboard conditioning, bridge mount, electronics, truss rod cover, strap locks). Next video will feature my friend Jim Perrault playing the bass to give some build feedback and demonstrate the playability. Stay tuned!
Please join me in supporting the Crimson School of Luthiery! All donations made in my name will be greatly appreciated. Link to this charity is accessible on my profile page at the Great Guitar Build Off website!
