Great job, I'm jonesing for those clamps!

[Pilgrim]

Y'know what would look cool (but non-Gibby) on that fretboard?

Diagonal/triangular marker inserts like those on the Ricks.

Just a random thought.

Aren't they great?  I plan to have 20 or 25 eventually.  I'm up to 6 so far, but the cost $18 a pop!  They are so perfect for guitar work.

Here's the neck all planed and level.  Turned out nice and my dip is gone!

[drbassman]

You could always leave it just as it is - MO... JO...

You'd love that, wouldn't you?!?  I can't leave things alone, you know that! 

[drbassman]

Balance?  We don't need no stinkin' balance.  You want balance watch FOX.

Well, the mahogany body on this thing weighs a ton, so I may not have much of a neck dive problem when it's all said and done!

[drbassman]

Ah - Here it is. 

If you dress up the board, you might as well dress up the headstock.  If you go basic, pic up a gold Gibson decal which is easy enough to do.  But if you put inlays, then upgrade the face. 

If your veneer face comes out nice, maybe skip the white!

I still think MOP blocks or something similar would be cool.  Here's the MOP logo I have.  Should I use it too and not worry about the gold decal?

[drbassman]

How about this.............



Or this...............

Spoilt for choice Doc     Looking good.

I'm really leaning toward the blocks, they are so Gibson!

Hard to argue that!

Gotta agree on the blocks - No.4 is talking to me, but what would look good on a white bass...?

Those clamps... what are they called...? with your skills, why are you buying them...? or is there something I'm missing...?

I think plain old white MOP will be fine, too.  The clamps are called cam clamps.  They are so easy to use and I love the deep throats on them.  You can reach deep into a body or neck, if need be.  The cork surfaces are great for wood working too.

#7 is growing on me....

[Highlander]

It would depend on the white, I guess...
