Red Gum Eucalyptus & Walnut SF3 Singlecut Bass


Posted on September 22, 2005 by Scott French

"This bass was pretty important in the evolution of my designs as it was the first neck to utilize the overlapping headcap with individual string guides. From here I moved onto a differnt design using solid metal rivets instead of delrin rods, but this was still an important step. Some really nice local woods again here."
