It sounds great (I forgot to mention that it is an electric). It has been really stable, I've had it for about 7 years. I butt joined three pieces together for the solid body, planed it, and shaped it with a band saw and router. I used a maple neck and ebony fingerboard, Stratocaster style pickups, a Fishman bridge, and Sperzel tuners. It holds its tune for months. I put a matte finish clear urethane on it and it looks really nice. It has a nice tone that is slightly mellow, perfect for jazz and blues. It's a bit brighter sounding than alder but not quite as bright as maple. I should post a picture of it sometime. I still have some of the wood left that I am going to make a matching bass out of one of these days.
