Muzz Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) OK, so I've been working on this one on and off for a long time, and it's pretty much finished for now, and I'm really, really happy with how it's turned out - it looks exactly like I wanted it to (was going for the 70s T-Bird/Fenderbird look), and sounds really good too. EPi T-Bird body, naturally reliced (AKA bashed about a bit), fantastic neck pocket done by Steve at PMT in Salford (tight as a tight thing), MM J-neck with shonky 70's Precision decal (still got the Epiphone neck plate proudly on there), Hipshot ultralites with D-Tuner, Hipshot Supertone bridge, Dingwall pickups under the covers, CTS wiring with pull-serial on the tone knob. [url="http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b585/MTM133/photo_zpsebe2a12f.jpg"][/url] I might rewire with a 4-way switch for Neck-Serial-Parallel-Bridge like my Dingwall, and I may even pick up a Warmoth neck when I'm in the States later this year, but that's about it, I think.

ezbass Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Oh yeah, that'll work! Nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jezzaboy Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Looking good Muzz. I have just knocked up one of these myself but it is nowhere near as nice as yours though. It`s still a work in progress Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzz Posted January 22, 2013 Author Share Posted January 22, 2013 Well, this one's been a work in progress (albeit one I've gigged quite a bit in the meantime) for a good while, it was only the flats I put on it recently motivated me to get the thing more or less finished. Black and maple sounds really nice (most of my other basses are this colour combo) - any pics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
