    Road Warrior Double Neck (Inspired by Mad Max Fury Road Flamethrower)

    Thanks! We went with two pickups per side instead of three each to leave more room for the theme aspects that we will be adding related to the flamethrower, etc. Most of my personal basses have three pickups with four to six separately operable coils when doing coil splits. Truthfully the...

    Ptcoustic Bass

    Thanks for all the nice comments!! Here are a few more pictures with the rosewood/abalone hole/rosette combination. It was a very nice unexpected bonus that the T body shape actually fit my Fender case which is form fit to accept J and P basses. I rarely use the hard case but love tweed so I...

    Road Warrior Double Neck (Inspired by Mad Max Fury Road Flamethrower)

    Wood parts for our next charity project. Double-neck guitar/bass inspired by the Mad Max Fury Road flamethrower doubleneck. It won't be a replica. We want to make it our own interpretation. Body and neck weigh 10 lbs. Add the guitar/bass parts and it's 15 lbs. When finished it will probably be...

    Best Wood for Time Travel is Alder

    Alder clearly works the best in our experience but be careful or you might turn to ash.

    Time Machine Theme Iceman

    My son and I just finished this three year project. When the bass is sold we are donating the proceeds to charity. Most likely will go to the Michael J. Fox Parkinson's Foundation. Look up Doner Designs on Facebook for more pictures and info.

    JazzMan Bass Build

    Just finished up a bass we call the JazzMan. It's named after the pickup that Nordstrand custom made to our specs (two differently wound noiseless J pickups under a MM cover). We will try to get some recordings done soon. Body is chambered swamp ash with a unique quilt maple top. Finish is dark...

    GAS Alert!!!!

    The closest thing I ever did to an impulse buy was to order an all ebony fretless neck.  There were several in the showcase but only one that was uniformly (almost) brownish black which is increasingly hard to find.  It's an investment (ha ha).  :-) Right now its sitting in a case but is loaded...
