  1. Awesome!! Not much else I can say! πŸ‘πŸ»
  2. That is what I want to put on this one but funds are a bit low at present will probably get some down the road so its going to be rounds on for the time being πŸ‘πŸ»
  3. Thanks, I was thinking about a matching headstock but I'm not sure as yet? πŸ€”
  4. What's happened to Christine I haven't seen her on here for a while?
  5. The body and top cap is all rough cut All ready to glue up! I think I need some more clamps tho
  6. Finally got round to starting this couple of changes tho.......... Its going to be a corvette shape and I'm using a old Ibby 5 string neck that I'm going to cut and splice some timber on the sides of the headstock so I can reshape it to more like a Warwick style Had a little play with the grain filling and I think it will look good in the end? The Sapele blank is gluing up now so I'll rough cut the shape tomorrow then hopefully get the cap glued on aswell πŸ‘πŸ»
  7. Almost finished! I think I'm going to keep the pickguard on πŸ‘πŸ»
  8. Thanks it came out ok for a rattlecan πŸ‘πŸ»
  9. I'm still on the fence to whether I like it or not with the pickguard on? I'm gonna wait till its all back together before I decide to keep it! πŸ‘πŸ»
  10. After seeing @Peter Popovic refinish his lefty version of this bass it inspired me to refinish the lifeless flat finish on mine but I went down a slightly different route and went for a solid colour, I really liked the colour of the telecision bass build so I went for that colour again Before........ After......... I made a quick pickguard for it to see how it will look and painted it black if I decide to keep it I'll make one out of black plastic instead?
  11. I must be getting a bit more reserved in my old age or it could be that the bold colour schemes I did looked a badgers derrière so time to tone it down a bit 😁
  12. I decided in the end to paint the body an Olympic White-ish colour I think its come out ok? I'm think black hardware will look good? πŸ‘πŸ»

  14. Don't worry mate we'll just do a swap πŸ‘πŸ»

  16. Hi If there are any budding guitar builders that have any use for it, I have a guitar kit building and setup book it focuses on doing a 6 string electric but obviously the skills will be universal πŸ‘πŸ»
  17. Cheers mate I'll pm you my address
  18. Yes please mate I'll have them how much do you want for them? πŸ‘πŸ»
  19. If I was making the body out of a nice bit of Ash etc then that would be an option but its made out of a old scaffold board so I've had to do a lot of filling so its going to have to be a solid colour and I've got some satin White at work πŸ‘πŸ»
  20. I'm really struggling to find the right butterscotch colour thats not nitro so i think its going to end up being white instead
  21. That looks great! Its inspired me to refinish my Warwick copy which has the same flat finish and I'm thinking of changing the pickups to a double coil Jazz style so its a bit like a $$
  22. Thanks mate will do πŸ‘πŸ»
  23. Hi Jon Can I have it please I'll make a donation to the RBL later on tonight if that's OK How much do you want for postage?
  24. Hi have you still got the pickguard available or have you put it up for sale instead?
