  1. Thank you for your incredibly kind words. I'm not a pro by any means, just a casual player with more basses than I could ever need. I appreciate it mate! Thanks for that - There are bass videos which I keep open and watch constantly so it's so cool to actually have one of those myself! Cheers
  2. Just got this bass shipped back from thailand where I had to leave it unfinished, undead and in limbo. Just taking it for a test drive
  3. NICE white SUB. You don't see many of those. I'm always on the lookout for one. Is it active or passive?
  4. Just saw this! I love your slanty bitsa. Yes I restored a Boxer PJ535, however I moved from Thailand to Australia before I managed to figure out the electronics properly. I was attempting a vol/vol/tbx with 3 way pickup selector (as original), but with an added series/parallel switch. I couldn't get it working properly before I left the country so it is sitting in my apartment waiting for me to finish the job. I will share videos as soon as I'm back and able to get it up and running. Good luck with the project - these basses are wonderful and should be preserved
  5. Quick update - After trying to replace the truss rod and breaking the fingerboard, we're back with a new fingerboard and a truss rod with a wheel.
  6. New tuners. Accidentally ordered a 2+2 configuration so only 2 are in at the moment.
  7. Dilemma of the day: knobs. I'm having knobs custom made - I'm planning on purple metallic knobs to compliment the orange. Now, should I go the whole hog and do my pickup covers in the same purple? A full matching set! Knobs are going to be 3D printed by my friend and look like this:
  8. It's so close to Torino Red in photos but it's really orange in person I swear!
  9. Would be! I just didn't want to disturb that nice gold logo so ended up leaving the front of the headstock as is.
  10. Sorry for the lack of updates! The neck has been stripped and refinished - we left the headstock original and just retouched it, but the back has been refinished entirely to a kind of black burst. I'm really vibing it at the moment.
