JC Basses Black Widow 5

My latest completed bass sound clip. I am spending too much time building and not enough time playing... seems I forgot how. :)

You can find out more information about the bass on my website:

I would love to build a few basses for my collection. I have can do wood work and I love the beauty of would and style of the different designs I see. How do you get started. Should I take a bass that I have and take measurement, The neck and head, how hard are they to build and is it so hard to find detailed info on how to build? I would love to take a class but I don't have the time or money to up root and leave for a few months to go to a school. Any help, thanks

@Roy1271 I would check out Luthier's Corner on TalkBass.com, there is a wealth of knowledge there. Also, StewMac.com has a ton of books and supplies you might need. Good luck!

Playings a bit sloppy, but whatever :P Great right hand technique, good economy of motion.

Wow! That's a stunning bass. I saw a few in-progress pictures o this one but I don't think I even saw it finished. Jared did an amazing job! Oh... great finger funk too!

I always like to check in on whatever is new by JCBasses..and as usual, this bass is almost cooler than the rest (each one getting better as they roll off you`re line)..keep up the craft and the playing ALWAYS, TB
