Project Big Bottom: Finished!!

[dinothespaceman]

I posted this in the "Work in Progress" thread but i thought it should be here as well:  It's a Gecko Medium 5  Koa over Walnut w/ wenge/bubinga neck.  Here are the pics:

Hope you like it as much as I do!  BTW, It plays and sounds as good as it looks  :toothy11:

If it sounds and plays as good as it looks......you're in bass player nirvana  :icon_biggrin:

That is a sick looking bass. Good stuff.
What are the electronics?

The guts of it are Duncan active Basslines w/ 3 band Duncan EQ.  I have it all wired to 18v for more head-room.

Sorry for the delay in answering...  I used 4 coats of tung oil sealer lightly sanding between coats,then 4 coats of polymerized tung oil.  The plan is to put a coat of wax on it , but I 've been playing it so much, I haven't had the time    :guitarplayer2:

Looks great.  What kind of case is that?

Not much of a bass player, but I love the looks of that gecko six... Great wood choices!
