Ok, not as diddy as a marleaux or as diddly as an ashbory, but pretty diddley compared with the basses I've been building recently
Sounds brilliant too.
I’m so bored I might as well be listening to Pink Floyd
Time will tell!

I'm pleased with the shape, the feel and the weight. I'll see how it hangs on the strap (this particular one is primarily designed for sofa noodling), but if it's OK (and it feels it so far), I'm very tempted to build a 6-string electric version of the same thing...
Next tasks are a couple of swifts on the headplate and a couple of small mahogany wings on the headstock
I have to say, I'm pleased with the look of this so far. I think I will definitely do another one sometime as a standard 6-stringer.
Much of the speed is down to the relatively small number of snags and boo-boos. It's not the sign of a new trend but more probably that, statistically, at least ONE of my builds had to be major-stupid-mistake free!
It's taking a lot of willpower to not PM @Andyjr1515 and get him to build me a Thunderbird-a-like...
