That Sappelle figure looks really nice.


best,

BTW, I'm still dreaming:











:-)

Green with the tuners on backwards! Dreams....they're funny that way.

A droopy headed fretless bass....Mike if I eat ice-cream late at night I have
dreams something like yours LOL.

(all in fun) :)

The tuners aren't backwards.. it's x-ray vision.

this is really impressive.
my apologies,with my thread on samples.
i think i rubbed a few people the wrong way,including you.

anyway,ive had a few failed attempts at creating my own.this is why i can respect this work that much more.
its always the neck where i go wrong.

beautiful spacey.it really is,loved to see it when its done.
peace.

Ah....I thought I had x-ray vision when I got those new Da-Vinci tuners...now I'm convinced.

In case anybody is wondering how I'm going to wire those pups...

Before glueing the top on I routered channels from the bridge>pup>cavity and Npup to cavity.
Knowing the type of pups before glueing the top on is a good thing.

Another set neck issue ....because I wasn't going to use a Humbucker then a tenon
on the neck would have needed to be done before the top was on  and then the top has
to fit around the the neck that's already attached to the body.
 I didn't want to have to deal with all that. It's much easier if there is going to be a Humbucker because the fretboard ends at the pup so the body top is just routered away as it's not seen anyway.
By not using a tenon I could keep the neck off and route the neck pocket with the top on.
Hope that makes sense.

No reason for apology Chuck. I respect others views. What I don't like is communication breakdowns
that happen. It happens and I'm always glad when it's understood. Sometimes it isn't easy seeing
where the other person is coming from.
 
I can sincerely say that I get short and frustrated at myself because of my lack of correctly expressing
my views.
 
I will say...if you and I were standing in a room talking about samples you would know that even if
I didn't agree that I would be listening with respect to your views/thoughts even if I may not agree- because after some thought I may find that I just learned something that makes me re-think.
There is something very important missing for me in this form of communicating- seriously. The face, the body language...etc. the humanity seems dimenished greatly. I hope this helps make up for some
of that.

 Nice work Spacey. I'm sure you will do it right or you won't do it at all.

Awesome!

Thanks Star and Steve.

Man...you know I love that Steve. :)
