All
I've long had serious, untreatable GAS for a Jaguar bodied bass (probably passive with two Jazz pups) in surf green. To my eyes this would combine Fender's best looking bass body with their coolest colour. The thing is though, it's a decidedly rare combination, so, excluding the idea of ordering, say, a Peterbuilt custom bass from scratch (which I'd love to do but can't afford right now), any suggestions for the most cost effective route to satisfy the GAS. I'm perfectly capable with a soldering iron and screwdriver so a self-build bitsa bass is feasible. Only thing I can't do is spray paint (which unfortunately is always the expensive bit).
Thinking caps on guys please...
