Rick Turner tells a story (and he tells it better than me) of the worlds first CF necked bass.

which he made.

and it was used on Fleetwood Mac's "the chain"

it was a prototype to test the theory, but never meant to be a long term thing.

it was made with 1 hour epoxy

John McVie Loved it and took it on the road.

where, somewhere like Arizona or Nevada it was sitting in it's case in direct sunlight.

and the epoxy softened and the bass disintegrated in its case.

Rick certainly learned from that, I hope other builders did too!
