Now to some of the newer stuff...
Here are a couple of shots from the 'white room' (where the guitars get their finish). The first several are of Pelly's 4 string Ziegenfuss signature singlecut. This bass is really going to be stunning in its simplicity. The guitar will have a satin urethane finish, which is just enough to keep it understated but help bring out the marvelous figure in the broad flame maple top and the marbled black walnut back. The body core is African mahogany. The neck is maple and cocobolo. The pickups will be nordstrand dual coils with custom B&W ebony covers, with matching black hardware.
Then, we get into a couple shots of Feldman's OM. This is hawaiian koa with a port ordford cedar (truly a cypress) top. She is bound in flamed honduran mahogany, and will has ebony accents. A great deal of work went into custom inlays on this beauty, so I am pretty excited to unveil it when it is fully done. I imagine Feldman is excited to get this because he has been waiting forever. Literally, forever.
