Bassassin Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Interesting. Is it a Japanese or Italian copy? The Italian ones seem more common. Jon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt_citizenbass Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 (edited) this certainly looks like an interesting project! i can never decide whether i like grabbers simply cause of this: I LOVE JFK and HATE Mike Dirnt Edited February 2, 2008 by matt_citizenbass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nash Posted February 4, 2008 Author Share Posted February 4, 2008 (edited) i've got the new neck now so i'll post a pick later. im having the neck pocket ajusted this week so ill post a pick of it then when its in one piece. then its off for a respray to white. the neck i got is only a cheap one, 'dr parts' i think is the brand. got it from dangleberry on ebay for £51 delivered, it seems good enough for what im aiming to achieve. edit: matt, you will like my grabber when im done with it.

nash Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 ok update. im still waiting for the neck pocket to be adjusted by the chippie guys who work in the next unit to me in work. and no im not putting a PW neck on it. i aint no teeniebopper. i have a neck obvs and i need to sort out the hardware next. nothing too expensive as this is only going to be a squier grade bass i guess.
