None, even though the body appears to be a hollow-body, it is chambered and heavy enough to prevent neck dive.

I just noticed you mention DIY in your title... did you make this yourself? Did it come as a kit? |

No, and I don´t have the means to make some at the moment. The finishing touch, the truss rod cover is done and in place.  And a few more shots.

love those fanned frets, and the carving job where the neck meets the body |

Your DIYs are crazy good. I've always been curious about fanned fretboards. Anyone played one? Are they difficult to get used to? |

The only thing I see wrong with this bass is..... it's not mine!  Again, a stellar job of designing and building a beautiful bass! Any chance of some sound clips of your basses? Would love to hear how they sound...
