Here are the new ones I have recently been working on.
The first is a Bubinga / Maple / Bubinga Body
It has a center stripe consisting of Flamed Maple, Cherry strips, and hard maple center.
Next is a Bass guitar. This one is a maple center, with a thin wenge top. It is going to get some serious carves, exposing a lot of maple.

I need your help. I can't possibly make all the mistakes myself!

That bubinga is very heavy and dense. That body has been chambered to relieve the weight.
It will get some carving also.
Thanks for looking Bryan.

Yes - looking forward to seeing those progress.
I'm really interested in seeing the carve on that bass. I seriously thought of trying something like that on my current build, but decided to play it safe and just do a carve on the solid walnut edge.
