brensabre79 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Haha, it almost is Maple fretboards for me all the way! And a black scratchplate. - wait! How much!? Whats the number for Warmoth again...? " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musicman20 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Well that was quite fun. I'm quite tempted to use it for any possibly custom build....maybe even Sandberg could make what I'm looking for... Do you have to register to get the image?

tommorichards Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I notice a lot of people here are choosing bound necks. Why doesnt the current bass market reflect that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brensabre79 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I much prefer bound necks, unfortunately it means you have to spend lots of money on a bass these days. I don't know why Fender stopped doing them on the Jazz to be honest, I think they look like something is missing. And they never did on the Precision unless it had a Jazz neck on there. Unless you fork out for the very very top end model you just get dots. Very disappointing. I find white binding really helps with first note location when on a dark stage, and it makes re-fretting a whole lot easier not having to colour match 30 year old nitro after sanding!

Jacqueslemac Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 (edited) Hmm, why does no-one take horizontal photos of surfboards? Not the colours I will be choosing when I eventually spray mine, but similar (think white instead of grey, cream instead of red and an ochre in the middle): Edited September 6, 2012 by Jacqueslemac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Pretty sure Harley Benton did a version of the Natural Squier VM for about £110 until very recently... vanished now though so they must be either discontinued or sold out. Be fantastic if it was an option on Mex Fenders again... that and those Jazz bass bodies where you can remove the scratchplate without exposing the routing, jaco style. Real shame that's mostly only on the expensive models these days too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomWIC Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 This is the bass I'll be building soon, the body will be coming off an Encore Blaster of the same colour, the rest of the bits I'll be sourcing from here if possible. Haven't decided on the pickups I'll be using yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
