  1. That's a very good point, I was thinking, since I have room in the bottom of the bass body, to move the neck a bit lower so the pickup and the bridge in order to have more body wood for the neck?
  2. I might have to cut some extra wood from the sides, I guess the body is still too chubby on the sides!
  3. I found the gentleman and the topic on the bass body I mentioned above, here it is ...
  4. Hello again and again, from your favourite (hahahaha) OSB_floor_mrbacco maniac fellow 🙂 I have another project in mind. I have basically sold all the other basses I made/assembled (except for the red and the carbon looking which is still on adverts.ie) so I was thinking of something a bit different this time. A custom bass with sharp edges like the one in the pictures. Pine wood, with a small back layer of MDF ( the upper half of the back of the body). Attached a semi glossy pre-pre-loved neck 34 inches scale with 21 frets (if I remember correctly) which is maple + maple. I might add a quad could humbucker green pickup that I found very cheap on ebay and I might paint it green too, not sure yet. The half of the body has a layer of veneer that was applied before, and I thought to make it a bit more aggressive by sanding it and giving some personality, I kinda like the result, but I am not sure how it fits with the overall idea, I'll have to brainstorm a bit more. I know it is not an original idea, a lot of basses like this have been made, there was a nice person here, from Ireland too, if I am not wrong, who had one, and that where the idea come from. I don't remeber the brand now. .. apology Hardware wise I was thinking chrome all around, and contols cavity on the back (if I succeed this time). I might try the aerodyne style jack , but I cannot guarnatee anything to myslef now ... haha ... Also, I will upload some more picture in the future with the OSB floor for sure, thanks.
