paul_5 Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 everything pre-drilled and solderless? it's hardly "expressing yourself by building your own bass" is it, a bit like the Wright brothers playing with Airfix kits. It looks like all you're doing is building someone else's bass.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure you'll find some parts of the kit that need "upgrading"... hope the wallet's up to the bashing!

Getting used to the techniques and technical requirements before introducing self-expression is key to learning successfully (a bit like playing).
