Designer quote:

Zodiac Jazz Bass guitar is electric bass guitar. The main element is a fingerboard with 12 signs of the Zodiac made of pearl. This project is designed for musicians who need something special in their future careers. Body, neck, all mechanics are modeled with T-Splines.

Judges quote:

Nicely done. The detail is grand. Wood materials look great. Really like the tuning pegs and strings, although the strings aren’t in the Tsplines model. Some of the deep black flat surfaces seemed to lose depth in some renderings – maybe compensate with more movement in the reflective background.
