Bassman Sam Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I really like the idea, wonder how it plays?

TheGreek Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 (edited) I've wondered why somebody hadn't done this before...I've got a spare headless system for just this kind of thing (finding a good bass with a broken headstock) Edited September 21, 2012 by TheGreek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Jack Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Given that the rest of it looks pretty standard, it makes me wonder about neck-soar (that's the opposite of neck-dive). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Well it's solved one of the design issues of the Fender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_5 Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I think the 'cut' for removing the head is slightly too high. Research leads me to believe that it should really have been sawn 17" (or so) closer to the body - roughly the 12th fret should do it.

oldslapper Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 It's pretty much like a Hohner Jack, with a P pup. They're nice little basses, don't see why this shouldn't be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
