Electric Upright Bass

Swamp ash body with bookmatched flame maple top. The neck is birdseye maple with a 1/4" walnut center stripe. Fingerboard and tailpiece are Macassar ebony. Finish is general Finishes Arm-R-Seal (the same stuff David Marks uses). The design is meant to capture the flavor of an upright bass, but more compact. The neck can actually be removed. The bass is almost completed, but needs a little electronics and setup work.

I've had to work with swamp ash before... no fun at all.
