Is this the bass you were posting about building a couple months ago? It looks great!
Hi there! Yes I posted some pictures of paint repair. I finished painting it back in the end of June. I then took a vacation through a huge hunk of July and got back to it in August.
I wound up putting a fender vmod pick up in because I found them prewired to a wiring harness. My soldering isn’t great though I might give it a try one day. I really like their sound. It’s pure Pbass tone to me. From what I read some don’t care for the different magnets across to the two halves of the pick up.
It has Hipshot at the top and bottom. HB7s up top mainly because I thought that fender necks came predrilled to accept fender MIM tuners which HB7s can drop in for. Would have gone for their ultralites if I knew better. I am pretty pumped to have the lollipop keys on there. The bridge is a kickass bridge.
@[email protected] is the one behind it, I just crossposted it here! I might tell them about this thread though
