bASS p***

Forgot about the Bass Forum on UU. I've posted this in other threads.

Toby Chennell of Jazz Box Ukes built this for me. Hand carved Spruce arch top with Maple b/s. He starts out with a 3/4" thick block of wood and carves out the archtop and back

Also one of his smaller standup basses. Made in England

Hey, that Chennell Uke looks beautiful but also very heavy on the neck. Does this beauty suffer from heavy neck diving ?

Here are my two basses. A Sandberg and quite an old Schecter. Both are awesome instruments and a joy to play.

Since my last post on this thread about 3 years ago, I've accumulated more basses. here's my entire collection.

Mike,

If you ever get tired of your 24” Hadean modifid body and paint please let me know. That’s a particular beauty in my eyes.
 
Second from the top on the left of the solid bodies, the one with the added pick guard and Pahoehoe strings. I don’t really need another but boy is that a beauty. Great design on your part, but then it is a beauty pageant, a surfeit of delights.

No neck diving Ukador. The tuners look rather large on it and I feel the headstock is a bit short but other than that, works great. It was the second bass Toby built. I originally was going to be the baritone I ordered but he found more suitable wood for the bari and turned the first one into a bass. I bought the bass because he gave me a great price on it. Glad I did.

The true bass nut here is Kohanmike of course.
