The knobs are critical to the sound too ??? Whodathunkit! 😂


They are if you find it hard to figure out where knobs with minimal markings are turned to!! Lol. 
 

My original plan was to use numbered Luminlay knobs, they make perfect ones for this bass. But since they are out of production, I had to go custom…and @Chopthebassknew a fella…

Don't forget to copper shield the pickups cavities and star ground them too otherwise the shielding is totally useless...

Yup, that’s the plan. I’m still waiting for the pickups and once I know the fit nicely I’ll do the copper. I run a ground from each pickup cavity, and bridge, and then ground everything to cavity shielding. It’s the only way to do it effectively.

As Andy said, top class job and great attention to detail.

 

PS. Interested to see where the ash(?) backed body in one of your pics is going. Is it another build going on at the same time? (Sorry if I've missed where you've mentioned that one at some point.)
