Tele bass headstock, reverse right-handed (why the heck not, keepin' it funky y'all)
Padouk neck / Goncalo Alves fretboard (an ~individual choice~ board)
Abalone inlay, SS 6615 frets
24 fret extension (mostly because I like abalone inlay)
black TUSQ nut
Here's a teaser:
Here's a link to an imgur album of photos of the bass neck:

The first few are brighter in the day on a dry neck, the next few are later in the (more overcast) day with a few aggressive coats of lemon oil.
It's going on an SX swamp ash J-bass body I'm currently re-finishing with some Behlen master gel.
Other stats of interest:
Lollipop key Ultralites
Nordstrand NJ4SV neck
Delano Delano Xtender 4 D/HE-M2 - 4 String Splitcoil Humbucker (gonna have to rout that out spayshul)
electronics: not sure yet, but probably series / parallel for each individual pickup (?), along with series / parallel for the sum of the pickups as well as in-phase, out-of-phase, using two DPDT pots and a switch most likely, and a Stellar Tonestyler (I LIKE OPTIONS OK)
Will post pics as progress occurs...
