The bass looks stunning! You have done well.

How did you resolve the bridge ground wire problem?

It looks fantastic. Well done.

What was the total cost?

My mother taught me not to ask those kind of questions....only kidding. I've not added it all up, but was best part of £1000-£1100 including materials.

Excellent job! That's a seriously pretty looking bass. How does it perform?

It sounds incredible, and plays well coincidering its not been set up. Once its set up, I reckon it it will sing!

Thanks, warmoth told me it should just be a single hole drilled straight through, but something was blocking it. If I could drill from the cavity end I would've been able to dislodge it, but I ended up having to drill another hole. No biggy i suppose.

It is very nice indeed Like the wood grain and finish - excellent job there A 5 string J/MM is a cool mix to.

No problem, I'd definitely recommend it. The quality if warmoth stuff is second to none. I'm already thinking about my next one. I fully recommend doing it. You could finish one for a little cheaper if you got different hardware etc, I kind went all out/a little over the top with it. Haha I think it's paid off though.

I originally wanted a grain with more of a standard subtle grain, but I'm pleased I got something a little different. I have two Warwickshire with twin jazz pickups and I really like the streamer jazzman, so was kind of inspired by that. It's a great combination.

Yea, its not for everyone generally, but I've always had a bit of a thing with zebra wood. I've also just noticed I wrote Warwickshire instead in warwicks! Haha sorry!
