The upper horn looks far more Manne-like than Rick-like, to me, anyway. Very nice, Jake.

I just read on the Motorhead forum that the middle pickup on Lemmy's LK is "not wired up as its not used". So that saves you some trouble.

Maybe move this to the Others forum if being in the Basses forum is a stretch. I like the look, and how the upper bout and headstock both "hook".

3 HB-1's are enough Rick content for me.

I have never seen Manne Guitars before, cool stuff! I like the whiskey barrel bass.
If no one is opposed, I wouldn't mind keeping you all updated here. I always appreciate input and I am sure I will have many questions along the way.

I have a neck I had built about 4 years ago sitting around and some wing wood, all waiting to be turned into something one of these days. That's why I'm interested in seeing how your through-neck turns out. I want to see how the routing and wiring holes, especially, go for you.
