Update on LOHUI recent project

Long time since the last update
I got to finish these three projects before i take a break till March.
1. Ken's curbow
Ken bought this curbow from ebay - but it came in a mess
No pots, no guts, silly glued fret, and a hanging loose strap lock holder...

Curbow is a piece of artwork truely

Steinberger, curbow, phil kubicki, dingwall, kensmith.. they are all nobel prize winning inventor in the bass history! respect.

2. Wai's sadowsky metro
New friend Mr.Wai came all the way from Tuenmun
In fact Lo hui has spent most of this childhood in YuenLong where is just 15 mins away from TuenMun before he move to the HK side.
Anyway, Wai purchased the VTC control from sadowsky directly and LOHUI will do the installation as well as setup the bass for him
The previous setup was.....

3. Eunice's big jazz mod project
This active female bassist got her 10 yrs old Japan jazz bass through a trade. A bass with some nice mod such as sadowsky pup. However, she want to give the bass some real personal touch of her own - a new neck transplant.
LOHUI will install the aftermarket maple neck with nice block inlay for her..- big work
the neck was longer than the original becoz of the extra fret, so we have to cut it short and leaving a overhang of the last fret. Also, the headstock is too short for the tranditional tuners, so we have to custom reshape the tuner mounting plate to fit it in...

Do you repair bass? I have a cheap Takamine acoustic bass which I tthink the neck is a bit wrapped. The action is high on the higher frets but it's ok on the lower frets. It makes playing this bass a hard job. Thanks
