Finish is sanded and polished. Now the fret work. I use the older Stew Mac neck jig. It gives me great results.

Great looking bass! How does it sound? I am working on a Mark Stanley bass style guitar which will be my first bass. Yours is spectacular, I realy like the neck construction details and the pinless bridge.
