Finally got my bass up and running! It’s been tucked away for at least 5 years. One of the pickups wasn’t working, but I managed to source one of the last custom-made Aria replacement pickups made by the legendary Rautia pickups in Sweden. He has since retired. This is a humbucker pup fitted into a custom housing that bus a copy of the original. The original singie pups were cast into the housing with resin so can’t be rewound. (So wish I’d bought a second one - the sound quality is unbelievable!)
1980 Aria Thorsound TSB400.
Beast!

Absolutely stunning vintage Yamaha G255. I had no plans to ever sell this, but an accomplished local player I know reached out to me, and I decided this wonderful machine deserved his level of musicianship!

These are high end Aria’s from the 70’s made in Japan - I’ve only seen ever seen 2. This one is off to a special young man who is a student of mine.

Processing some fresh Impala for drum skins... nasty difficult work!
it’s always out in the cold winter wind because of the hunting season...
These are lovely fresh unsalted skins - Impala is my favourite too!

Been a busy day! Organized one of our members a great lathe setup, and turned two yellowood food bowls. These are for our home use - this has been on my bucket list for awhile now. Mineral oil and beeswax. Not perfect by any means, but they will be used every day, and will age with us.

Starting to make progress on the turning front. Completed rough-turning of three large bowls today. Two Yellowood and one Oak. These are turned from still-wet wood and are coated with sealant and left to dry for a few months. Once dry they will be final
turned and finished.
