That’s probably something you’d be best to discuss with Mark. I’ve added on some nice parts to the spec on mine, between the electronics and top. i was only quoted a ( very fair ) price after I’d been and spoken with him and discussed every tiny detail. He’ll quote you a price range if you contact him, and this is pretty much right st the top of that, and then a bit, taking the electronics into account, but I’d still encourage you to get in touch with him as you’re unlikely to be shocked with how high it is.

He surely is. He has a great, patient approach to the process. A very neat and methodical worker.

Thanks to @kodiakblair for putting me in touch with the builder, this is currently underway. Herrick pickups Lusithand preamp. My drawings provided to the builder for templating. Inspired by a well known bass, but with one or two intentional deviations, in the interests of not being an exact clone.

It's still here. Does anyone have an interesting trade ? -
Mickey, I'll apologise publicly here, in addition to the one I've just PMd you too. Sorry for this oversight.
-
No love for the 41 year old Ibanez ?
-
I'm open to trades on this.

My difficulty with these two is. the singlecut is a one of one that was built by a very respected builder. This chance will never come again. The other bass was bought for the biggest gigging year of my life. A year like that won’t come around again and this is the bass in all the photos. Ok, decision made. They’re going nowhere, I need to use them more.

Shhhh…. Don't tell everyone about the USA SUBs… 😎
-
Fair point.
-
These two are deep into coffee table territory.
-
How long do you let them hang about before you eventually cut them loose ? I know such talk might be heresy, but these two beauties haven’t got the nod since I stumbled on an old USA Musicman SUB 5 string.

Hopefully, they'll find this 🙂

41 year old Ibanez RB924 CS (Cherry Sunburst) From my favourite era of Ibanez shapes, this has tow passive pickups, master volume, pan, passive tone and three way switch which I seem to recall does parallel / series and some other option. It makes a difference !! Pickups look like soap bars, but are double J and P when you look at the pole pieces. The sound confirms this. Super skinny neck which is very easy to play. Condition is very decent for the age, it's not pristine, but marks are confined to the rear. For sale as something else has drawn my eye. Will ship anywhere in the UK and happy to work out your choice of shipping service. More photos to follow shortly as soon as my drive behaves.
