New chapter to the Brooks story

[Basvarken]

A new chapter will soon be added to the Brooks story.

An old college friend of my brother has a passion for woodworking. He has an impressive collection of chisels, planes and other tools. including an Austrian-made Hammer CNC mill.
He approached me for a unique collaboration. I would contribute my knowledge of (bass) guitar building and he would contribute his skills in creating the 3D files for the CNC machine.
And so it was that we started the Brooks Jufferschans Edition in mid-2023. A very accurate remake of the Fenderbird that Peter Cook built for John Entwistle.

A lot of drawing, measuring, calculations, test pieces and consultations in recent months. We selected wood together in the huge storage of the my local wood supplier.
But now the first real results of the milling work are there. And they look fantastic.






Next week I will pick up the parts and start putting together a bass guitar from these "kits".
Hopefully the starting signal for a beautiful (limited) edition of Brooks Bass Guitars!
