If it had a brand it would be 4000 bucks easy
Absolutely beautiful. Great workmanship.
Beautiful instrument. Love the purple 💜
The bass looks really good I really like the finish
Now that is a beautiful bass.
Wow!! Absolutely gorgeous!
nice job
What an amazingly beautiful bass! I really like the colors and how you left the worm wholes in the neck/headstock. :D
Totally inspiring and beautiful. A positive part of my day, cup of good coffee and watching this video!
It would have been nice to hear the instrument at the end of the video. Great job!

I am a 54 years old disable fireman who is being forced to give up volunteering after 17 year. I know absolutely nothing about base guitars but I want to learn to play one do you think your guitars are a bit too much for me or should II start with something a bit cheaper and easier, but your guitars are magnificent
👏👏👏👏👏
What a beautiful instrument! I love the color. I am curious, is it multiscale! To my old eyes I thought maybe there was a bit of a slant to the frets, but that may have been positioning for the video. Very ergonomic design, very elegant. This bass I'd love to play! Great job.

Just my opinion, but. . . I think the background music used in this video should be dumped and ten minutes of slappin' bass from this very instrument dubbed in.
I hate cnc , by hand no cnc

You're so right, there's no human input in computer design.... Just like using power steering in your car is cheating to make turns, or taking pics with your phone is cheating cause there's no film. All major guitar manufacturing has been using CNC for decades, bunch o' cheaters! @@jellopuddinpops9421

@@jellopuddinpops9421 it may feel like cheating but it isn't. In order to get there he invested money into those tools with hard work, and that hard work is put smartly into cnc that saves time and effort for future builds.
