Hi......I have been playing bass for at least 20 years and still have limited knowledge of the technical side but i will do my best.
P ups....Overwaters own J style.
John East pre amp i think i have never looked but i will try and find out.
Neck....measures 34'' from bottom to top of headstock.
String spacing...10mm hope that sounds about right.
I jump from 4/5/6 string basses and never really thought about the spacing.
Sorry i should really know more at my age....Cheer Haimesy

Nice bass by the way! I used to own a Fender Classic Custom JB5 in the same lovely colour.[/quote]
Hi ...You might be right i don't know where to measure from just took a punt.

The coulor is moonstone blue courtesy of Peugot i kept seeing the car colour and overwater did me a match.Cheers H

The scale length should be 35" (nut to saddle btw), Hipshot style B bridge and UL machineheads , Kent Armstrong PU's from the picture. The pre doesn't look like one of John's (although I could be wrong)


Great bass :)
