My Willow
Here's my SB 200, 3/4 Willow, purchased from and set up by Jeff B in 2006:
Height (bottom to button): 43 ½” UB: 20” Cb: 14 1/8” LB:25 3/8" String length: 41 1/8" Spruce top Willow back and ribs The varnish doesn't look quite this yellow under netural light . . . |

couple more pics
here are a couple more . . . I'm curious to find out what type of wood the tailpiece is.
The last pic is hard to see - it's of the x-bracing joint. |

Wood..
The wood and varnish on your Bass looks beautiful, especially the Willow.

I've got a Willow on trial from Nick Lloyd and from the look of the tailpiece on mine, I assumed it was ebony.
Something else I noticed is the string length is also about 41 1/8. They advertise the bass as having a 41 1/2 string length. 3/8" seems to be a fair amount off from the spec. |

Huh - I wasn't aware of their advertised string length. I always thought 41-41-1/2 was sort of a standard for these smaller basses. Maybe you should ask John Sprague (at TB)

Hey Gents,
I just checked our site, and indeed it says 41 1/2, but we are now making that bass at 41 1/4. The stock tailpiece for that model is rosewood, and Stan yours does look like rosewood after a closer look in photoshop (pic's a bit dark). |

Thanks, John!
Yeah, I believe it is rosewood.I'm very happy with this bass, by the way. Although it seems to be going through puberty at the moment. Can't wait for spring to start!
