Custom body build

[AggieTreed]

So after building a bass through Warmoth I decided to take the plunge and build my own custom body. I am scrapping my old Ibanez 7 string body and building a custom one. Here is what I have after a days work. http://www.flickr.com/photos/aggietreed/6814533120/in/photostream

Haha no I'll be rounding the edges a bit with the router. Right now it's just in the first stages

After a day of routing, rasping, carving, and sanding here is what turned up!

Oh man that would be! I'm using my current Ibanez neck for it though

 

[AggieTreed]

And now for a little stain....

Is that Red Oak?

 

[AggieTreed]

Nope it's alder. It's got a golden oak stain on it though.

 

[AggieTreed]

Ok, I masked off some of the body and did some painting today.
