First custom bass build

I'm building my first bass, ever.
It's a 4 string purple heart - based bass.. with some other woods in there. We haven't 100% decided on the body wood combination but I'm thinking 5-7 piece purple heart / maple / bloodwood sandwich

This bass will be the first instrument to have my individual nut concoction, so there will be plenty of pics. I don't have any yet, but I'll probably take and post a few this weekend... just felt like starting this thread early.

Details (so far):
4 string
5 piece purple heart / maple neck
35" scale
Single cut-away body
Individual Nuts
Monorail Bridges
