  • I made something really cool.

    A couple of days ago, we were working on taking a six string bass apart at our workshop of Knooren handcrafted instruments because it suffered a fatal trussrod break, since the bass had a glued in neck we had no other option but to chop it out with a chisel. I then was told to saw the headstock off so that the ornate fingerboard could be salvaged. So after I went Henry the VIII'th on that neck inspiration stuck and I told my boss: "Say wouldn't it be cool to place that headstock on a sockel like a trophy?"

    And so I did exactly that, it looked really cool but then I had a better idea. I took a flat piece of maple, shaped it into a Ricky headstock, finished it "Jet-glo" put some very old machine heads and a name plate and there it was.




    I now have one of the coolest ornaments ever on my desk. If you look closely you'll see that the name plate actually says "Bickenracker"

    You should mount it on the wall, like a big game trophy!
