My custom-made bass from start to finish

[Lord Larehip]

Instead of a scroll, I wanted a knight's helmet. I sent Dan some images and he carved this image and asked me if he should add in a grille. I said yes.


Grille added.


Neck glued to body, fingerboard (ebony) glued to neck. The straps and clamps simply hold the pieces together until the glue dries.


Purfling added to the back. Purfling is done to the front and back. It is both decorative and protects the edges of the instrument.

Next, we will see the finished product.
