  1. great!
  2. awesome journey, thanks for sharing!
  3. love each and every of them, well well done!!
  4. Is shipping to the Republic of Ireland possible for you?
  5. 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
  6. 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!
  7. 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!
  8. not sure ... at the beginning I wanted a very minimal design with just one knob for the volume, but now I got to two (V+T), and I would like to have the full power of the 4 in series if you know what I mean?
  9. thanks! appreciated the clarification on the head and the offer!! thanks! 🙂
  10. now, as usual, the first OSB floor picture of the bass, which is almost finished. I miss the strings and the machine heads that are arriving soon. Control plate modified to shar edges rather than rounded, plus installation of the pickup. I wanted to place a chrome ring around the pickup, but saince I am satisfied with the routing, this time, I think I leave it as it is.
  11. wonderful bass and project, this one.
  12. Yeah. Exactly. I wanted to put the jack on the side, but I "engineered" (hahahahah, big word for me) a P51 style plate to host 3 holes and modified it to suit the shape of the bass. I'll show yousss soon!
  13. I like this one more, thanks!
