Old_Ben Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) A friend gave me the shell of a squire p-bass affinity. [attachment=166730:20140712_112210.jpg] [attachment=166731:20140712_112007.jpg] Nothing overly complex needed in my view, new scratch place, (found in a dark recess of gumtree), pick ups (courtesy of Thunderbird) and some strings (happened to have some d'addario flex steels knocking about). Gave it a good dusting and a wipe down and applied a coat of guitar wax. Not looking to shabby if I say so my self. [attachment=166735:20140714_135325.jpg] [attachment=166736:20140714_135336.jpg] Now I'm just waiting for some screws for the scratch plate to arrive from ebay, and do a basic set up on it, (although having stuck on the strings I found the intonation pretty spot on, only really going out around the 17th fret) will adjust the string and pickup height for a good full sound and it'll be all done, and I'll record some clips and pop em up on here!

Old_Ben Posted July 15, 2014 Author Share Posted July 15, 2014 So I didn't get round to setting it up properly yet, but did get round to playing it via Reaper and my usb input: https://soundcloud.com/ben-webb-15/p-bass-take-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
