FlyStraight99 Posted Monday at 19:07 Posted Monday at 19:07 SD quarter pounders PJ pickups, multitonal gotoh bridge, Schaller tuning heads, a matte black s/plate … and black volume / tone knobs what do you guys think? Enough mods for grunge/rock/punk covers? 😁 12 Quote
HeadlessBassist Posted Monday at 19:23 Posted Monday at 19:23 Looks just right to me. How does it sound..? Quote

paul_5 Posted Monday at 21:26 Posted Monday at 21:26 Still got more strings than knobs, not excessive at all! Quote
ead Posted Monday at 22:10 Posted Monday at 22:10 A bit more Pink Floyd than punk maybe? Just my view comparing the bass to the Roger Water sig. bass. Quote
KiOgon Posted Monday at 22:13 Posted Monday at 22:13 What?! no ki_ogon wiring loom? Can't be right 😂 2 Quote

Norris Posted Monday at 22:29 Posted Monday at 22:29 You can't go wrong with a set of SDQPs. Everything else is for the eyes, those are for the ears. They transformed my Squier P-bass Special, which is still my favourite 4-string Quote
Bassassin Posted yesterday at 00:31 Posted yesterday at 00:31 Just get a set of cream covers on those SDs (to match the fretboard) & that'll be sorted. 👍 2 Quote

Beedster Posted yesterday at 09:13 Posted yesterday at 09:13 Easy @FlyStraight99, modding quickly becomes addictive! Nice work 👍 Quote
neepheid Posted yesterday at 09:38 Posted yesterday at 09:38 (edited) Overkill? Pfft, have you started modding this bass yet? Edited yesterday at 09:39 by neepheid Quote

sprocketflup Posted 42 minutes ago Posted 42 minutes ago A new neck and a replacement body and you'll be about there Quote
Happy Jack Posted 40 minutes ago Posted 40 minutes ago Those fanned frets don't look awfully fanned to me, and you clearly gave up on the torzal twist ... Quote
