These are the two basses we finished this week.

The SR has a birdseye maple fretless neck, Audere 4-band preamp
and a Nordstrand double-coil PUP. It sounds gorgeous. The customer
designed the graphics. I also have a black and white control covers
so he can switch them out if he wants.

The SP is similar to another one I built but this has a Nordstrand
double coil PUP and no pre-amp. The sound is very versatile -
not just a thumping P-bass sound, but, dare I say, sounds more
like a Jazz bass.

Both of my customers wanted the Babicz bridge and after installing them
and adjusting them I have to say I like 'em.

This is the whole bass. That neck plays like buttah. The action
is supremely low.

Yowza. I especially like that Tele. Those Babicz bridges are monsters! How are they?

The Babicz bridges are super lightweight, very bright and have MUCH more adjustment than any other bridge I've
used before.
