Davebassics Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I've been restoring my jazz bass over the past months and been blogging as I go. I'm glad to say, I'm almost done. Got a slight issue with the electronics but that will get sorted out after my holidays! You can check out the progress at my blog [url="http://allthatjazzbass.blogspot.co.uk/"]All That Jazz Bass[/url] New Specs:[list] [*]Vintage White [*]Sadowsky Preamp [*]Dimarzio Ultra Jazz Pickups [*]Precision Neck [*]Badass II Bridge [/list] I've attached the before and after photos! I've got 30 minutes left of my degree this morning then I'm straight off to sunny gran canaria for a holiday! See you all in a week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davebassics Posted June 3, 2012 Author Share Posted June 3, 2012 [quote name='yepmop' timestamp='1338207833' post='1670763'] Yeah good read, especially as i'm doing something similar, how long did it take to strip the original paint off? [/quote] It took about 2 full days. If I could offer some advice it would be take your time around the edges. Looking back at my project, the outer edges could be a lot smoother. Not bad though. I'm going to tackle the electronics issues this week. Potentially get it looked at professionally if I still can't sort it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
