Looked very nice indeed.[/quote] awesome! 5th and 6th wow, they must be as good as I'm anticipating mine being! Alan did me this pic just so I could see how it's gonna look in terms of layout, these aren't the pickups or ramp going into the bass, its just for representation. also shows the neck glued in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eude[/quote] Haa, I keep having a peak at the pictures of your finn s/c and that's not helping me much either! Very excited. Just started reading up on the pre-amp and its suddenly occured to me just how many sounds I should be able to get out of it, especially with the coil switching in both magnetic pups, and then there's the piezo also! Hours of fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richardcoughlan Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 some photos just came through: Most of the wood work is done. Fret work and final sanding is being done tomorrow, then the first coat of oil. Pickups also arrive tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eude Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Stop it! Stop it! Stop it! Glad you're digging my Finn mate, it's my main squeeze, pretty much only put it down when I'm sleeping, at work or driving. You're going to love yer ACG After last weekend I've come up with the spec for my next couple... Eude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Is it really wrong to have a "wife and mistress"? It's very much the done thing and a sign of success in many European countries.. Honestly though, I get to spend a lot of time with the bass at the mo as my girl lives in London, but, all things going well, she'll be moving up here soon, so I'm getting as much bass time in while I can, I guess buying a decent headphone amp would fix things though Eude Edited April 28, 2010 by eude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
