Gigs? Oh yes, I remember those. After packing up, the last thing I wanted was a post licensing hours, grease fest. I’d drive straight home and maybe munch a few sweets from the car stock (yeah, I know, a post licensing hours, sugar fest) and maybe have a something plain, like a piece of bread, once home, whilst catching up on Basschat as a wind down.

I have found that modifying stock basses helped me define exactly what I want from a bass. My 2 custom builds feature many of the things that I tried out on stock basses earlier (D-Tuners for example) and not the things that didn’t work out as I’d hoped. However, upgrades to stock basses rarely increases the worth of that bass if and when you come to sell it, it is not a sum of its parts, sadly, although they might help sell it to someone who likes the changes. On the whole, I think it’s best to keep the original parts and put them back if you sell it on and sell the modifications separately (or keep them for your next project). It is this way that you might see a ‘sum of its parts’ resale value.

Onwards and upwards!
