    Nice Bass... Lookin' different in the Scratchplate, Pickup department... and a nice old style 2 saddle bridge. Had similar with a machine head, one of a cheapy set for a Cruiser by Crafter fix-up. I Removed the bolt holding the gear wheel, and pushed a 'plug' out from the back of the string post with a scribber. Worth a go for a better anchor on the E string... If its a fix, you won't have to list it as an issue? Is that some sort of X in the wood or some sort if shaddow, just under the strings?

    Not wishing to hijack Tjhooker's thread... He will 'prolly arest me! Any builders with a suitable off cut - 108mm (4 1/4") x 40mm (1 1/2") x 8mm (5/16") thick - to fashion a Bartolini-esq soapbar Flat bottom, Radius top edges... to go between the pickups of my Ibby SR600 in Natural or Fretboard hue as per my Avatar pic?

    A nice little earner for builders off cuts? Matching or Contrasting woods... So you would think... eBay for perspex?

    Sounds like a mechanical switch, with a 'break-before-make' switching action, rather than a 'make-before-break' switching action. Rather than a switch switching the circuit electronicaly...

    Nice, loves the Stat' jack... would go Strat' knobs How cool would that look with some individual saddles mimicking the pickups?

    Black, White is too stark and i dont do tort... might be something to do with being colour blind. tort just looks messy to me. Got any clear, or light tint?... 'cos ya got the scratch plate holes... keeps the lines and the vibe... and ya get 30% more wood!

    Status have a pdf about fitting their neck... plus detail on their site about neck pocket size. You then have some dimensions to look for in regard to a body.. then as mentioned, maybe a little fine sanding... Pickups may be slightly different in corner radius from a Seymore Duncan to another brand, bridges may differ in string spacing... What other bits are you looking at?

    A quick google shows similar models with 3x pots What are your pots doing? VVT, VBT? 3 position Switch? If 'blend' it may be an AC taper pot and someone fitted a switch so you can have both pickups at full(ish) output. Easier to just swap the pot for a switch, thinking about it, it's what i could of done on my SR...

    Tort scratch plate? 😉 Awsome...
  19. PaulThePlug
    Nice texture and colour wood, sort of tea colour... For me, the artwork would have to go... sanded and blended in to the forearm contour. Brushed Brass Scratch plate as a sort of nod to the gold hardware... I don't do tort. If the Pickups are lacking... what ever turns up on sale here to keep the cost down. SD Quarter Pounder on here a week or so back, Think there is a Squire P, which might be a bit better if cheap.

    Just not a fan of the Beatles presentation... Some great singwriting and when presented by another band, usually has a good twist to the presentation, more of a feel n vibe. Maybe comes down to the Beatles or Stones? Same with The Who. Just dont get it, but a Big Led Zep fan.

    Most P's and anything with a flat rather than angled back headstock have a string tree for the D and G to keep the strings tight in the nut. Various styles, from the std disc, roller T, or billet hook...
