  1. yes agree, great squared
  2. very nice bass you have there, the mohogany wood looks really nice and perfect!
  3. this is really nice ... may I ask ... what is the concept behind the not straight/slanted pickups?
  4. very nice finish ... I got more or less a similar effect, using the raw linseed oil from liberon I found on sale in the hardware shop close by
  5. Hello again fellow bass players, I was out for a while, doing all sort of things except working of course. I have not done many recently, cause I focused on trying and sell some, but lately I got some parts left to produce a low cost as following: Maple neck. 21 Frets Maple Fretboard with black rectangle inlay. Gloss effect on the front and sanded in the back to provide a wood effect. 34" scale. BODY: Light Paulownia Wood, 42mm Thick Maple Wood Tele Style Dome Knobs Brand new pots and hardware all around. Brand new Precision Alnico 5 4-String Precision Bass Pickup High Output (resistance 11.5K) Brand new Adagio professional strings I just wanterd to share it with you and say hi again! What colour would you suggest for the body? I wanted to finish it with pure wood oil only, but not sure now.
  6. great!
  7. awesome journey, thanks for sharing!
  8. love each and every of them, well well done!!
  9. Is shipping to the Republic of Ireland possible for you?
  10. Hi everyone. Kindly asking if anyone has the 1:1 pdf design/pic of the for the wal pro bass head as seen below ? I have a neck that I would like to turn into this. Thanks mrbacco
  11. Hey. Wanna share with you my last creation. Pure assembly with a few components found on the second hand market.0 A bit of wood work for sanding the body and the neck, a bit of work in the neck pocket (was a mm larger than the neck so I used a maple veneer on the internal sides of the neck poscket to fill the gap). Plus some oiling of the neck and the body after finishing the sanding. - cedar body (or at least I think it is since is soft and light) - maple + maple neck - added stickers on the inlays to conceal the original black dots - no brands P bass pickups + rosswell jazz bridge pickup (thanks to @orangepeelneil) - cream control knobs (thanks to @orangepeelneil, again!) - adagio string - musiclily tuners and bridge Notes: Nice low action throughout the whole fretboard A bit of neck dive there, unfortunately ... how to fix it? Thanks for lookin!
  12. Yeah ... The warman drivetrain is a beast. I have in the second P51 style bass I assembled and it sounds a lot nicer compared to the green one, which is, as you correctly stated, less powerful. But good enough for the money and for this project. I remember this baby bass, and at the time I said ... This is LOVELY! It stuck in my head probably when I was building this one. Love the color of yours too!
