Looks great!! Much more professional looking than my attempt!! My only criticism is that it’s a shame about the bass it’s fitted to!!........😜

Yes please I’ll have them, how much for postage?

If you want a Union Jack I wouldn’t try and spray it I would get a skin it would make your life a lot easier.........😀

Logo now done just need to fix it on..........😀

A fella I used to work for was a stickler for planning the job to the minutest detail before you start, the amount of times he quoted the 6 P’s at me (Perfect Planning Prevents P iss Poor Performance Blah Blah Blah!!).............😀

I don’t think anyone would believe that haven’t you seen my other builds!!!.........🤣

Thanks @Andyjr1515 I was starting to think ‘yeah I think they are right it is way too big!!’ But then as it progressed I thought it’s kinda got the look of a vintage tube amp about it, which to be perfectly honest was more luck than judgement??............😳

Maybe a long shot but is this still available?

Looks lovely mate!!..........👍

I was going for the vintage look on this one, the cab will match it but the cab will be just rectangular and the front of it will be replaceable so I can make it look a bit more modern if I do a different style head............😀

It’s almost done just need to put my logo on it and wire in the jack socket on the back I don’t think it’s come out too bad for s first attempt...........😀

I like that one!.........😀

The lower horn and the bridge end is quite angular then the top horn is curved I would probably try and make it a bit more angular so it ties in with the rest but don’t get me wrong it does look good the way it is.............👍

Don’t go give me ideas!!

Done a bit more yesterday......... Just need to cut the bottom and cover with some black faux leather I’ve found at work............😀

Here’s the original body back on I’m thinking of removing the block as I don’t think they go too well with the body or I might change them to white instead............😀 i weighed the bass before I changed the body and it weighed 5.4kg and now with the original body back on it weighs 3.6kg...............👍

It’s really not that big it’s only 300mm wide x 150mm high it would look a bit pathetic of it was only just bigger than the control plate as that is 210mm wide x 45mm high

@Soledad is a great guy he gave me a set of strings for free, posted them for free and I received them in 3 days from first message Thanks again

I managed to skive off work a bit this afternoon so I made a start on the head casing I was going to do it rounded on the top edges but after looking at it I’ve decided not to and I’m going to mitre the corners instead I think I’m going to do the face in Beige speaker cloth and Black carpet on the outside to match the cab............😀

Because that’s far too easy!!............😜 My plan is to buy an Amp head at some point so if I build the 2 x 10 cab now I’ll have it ready.............

This going to be running along side a 2 x 10 bass cab build aswell so unfortunately till the cab is done I can’t test it? But if it works I might do it with a more powerful combo............🤔

I’ve seen on YouTube a few videos saying you can make a nice sounding head out of a crappy 10w practice amp so I thought I’d give it a go So far I’ve dismantled my bb blaster 10w practice amp and will start making the new case for it................🤞

I got my kids to watch ‘The Never-ending Story’ the other week they didn’t appreciate that it was a classic!! Kids of today!!.............🙄

Bit of an update on this project the body is too heavy and a bit uncomfortable for me to play so I’ve decided to refinish the original body in satin black and add a pickguard to make a look a bit different i still need to strip off the veneer and either colour match the headstock or leave it Maple I’ll decided once the veneer is off.........😀

The speakers are nothing special they are Pyle 10” subwoofer the 8ohm SVC version is £25 and the 4ohm DVC is £29..........😀
