Thanks, guys!

It's a big week. I'm a U.S. patent holder.

Congratulations! No more "patent pending"

Thanks, guys...this feels almost surreal. :)

Related, here's an 8-String build by Mac Ritchey using my bridge. I think it turned out spectacularly.

Owner #2 of the GT40 Ridler wanted another bass with the same neck. Initially, it was to be a Ridler, but he ultimately chose a single-pickup Chromasonic for variety. Lotus livery with plastic binding on the front and Rootbeer Sunburst on the back. I think I've cracked the code.

I'm with you. Over the years I have become increasingly attracted to 30" and 32" basses.

Builds with 32" scale conversion necks have become my nearly-exclusive focus. I can't seem to keep the necks in stock.

Speaking of builds, the last step in the my process is taking photos for the website and social media.

That color stripe one has potential for custom orders in different color combos.

Exactly...my painter Moe Roberts is the former painter for Dean's Tampa custom shop and splits his time 50/50 between guitars and motorcycle parts. This is his jam. :)
