    JP, this is my favorite instrument to date; it's really light and fits in an electric guitar gig bag (by design). I play it when I'm on rotation to play bass on the worship team which is for the next three weeks! I just finished practicing a little while ago. The body is two pieces glued together; the strap hides the seam, but the woodburning following the grain lines is a hint. It is fir 2 x something; leftovers from my youngest son's Eagle Scout project. Doug

    Do you use a 1x12 or are you laminating.  Looks like one solid piece.  Sorry about all the questions!

    Don't know what it is but the shape of this one really trips my trigger!   I see now that it is fir like I thought.
