A pillow and a baseball bat to take to the courier if the Perspex bass (first pic) arrives scratched?
-
Woof. That’s lush!
-
Still own four though!😂😂
-
This^^. I love tinkering, but my bitsa bass isn’t as good as my JV. I only started it because a mate gave be a Squire with a duff neck. £200 later and it’s pretty good, but I doubt I’d get that back if I sold it. I know this is basschat heresy, but you only really need one bass! (Ducks for cover).

You beat me to it 🤣🤣
-
I’m loving all the planning visualisations here - looks ace!
-
I’d be interested next pay day!
-
Got the black plate yet?
-
What, no pics?
-
I won a really nice mic in a competition once - super duper valve jobbie. Sold it, regret selling it. If I won one of these basses, I’d like to think I’ve learned my lesson and keep it forever (unless I didn’t gel with it).

I’ve read wax potting the pickup helps with microphonic shizz. No idea why, or if it’s true, but maybe someone with some actual knowledge might chime in with more detail. In anticipation of that, do you have a picture of the back of the pickup?
-
Ooh, black plate. If only HB would do a Jag bass.

Apparently they use a laser these days - quick AF and back to normal in a day or two. I had the old fashioned “pull the strings out and tie them in a knot” with about 5 people watching. Weird, but sooo worth the security of not having to find a bigger house/sleepless nights/etc.

People are quick to criticise - always the way unfortunately. Keep up the good work!

My new bass close to be finished..Guess the make

It’s a cool shape, and I do like something different, but with no hardware it looks like it was left too close to a radiator, or in a car on a sunny day! -
That’s actually not bad a bad looking job! 😂😂
-
Finished! A Guitar Bouzouki - (no basses were harmed in the...)

This is next-level stuff - love the craftsmanship that goes in to these, Andy! You going to borrow it back for the SW bash? -
Is it just me or is there more sustain with your bridge as opposed to a standard one?
-
I had one exactly the same! Swapped it with @yorks5stringer at a bass bash a couple of years ago.
-
That one on reverb is beautiful. Apart from the headstock. You could row a boat with that monstrosity!
-
The middle two are tone ports.
-
That does look cool. I’ll see if I can get Mrs Turgh on board with the telly box later. ”Just trimming back the overhang” they said;
-
I felled over a wall the other day. Made a right mess of my legs. Mrs Turgh found it hilarious though.
-
Turns out the trees had a protection order on them, so the chainsaw men cut them all down illegally. Can’t use that stuff now - bad mojo!

I like the black pearl. Like black, only softer transition to the wood grain.
