Update on the PLM-4 30" scale bass

This weekend I got the neck shape cut out and headstock along with the f-board cut to their basic shape. This bass I am building as a one off so it is taking me a little longer because I am not using any templates on this one. I may decied to make some just incase I want to offer this model in the future.

I hope to get the f-baord on this week and radiused. along with the back of the neck profiled. I have deceided to do a transparent blue finish on the body and maybe on the headstock. Not sure on the headstock yet because the f-board and headplate match with the grain pattern. It should look nice when complete. I am also thinking of adding a pickgaurd to it made from Ambrosia maple along with purpleheart f-board binding. It should look pretty cool when complete. Also check out my facebook page, look for Meyers Guitars. I will post a link once I learn more about this facebook stuff.

Play On!
