Be keen to hear how this beast sounds... post a link next time you record something with it [/quote] Thanks Paul! I'll record something with it when it's done, may do a comparison with my '83 USA Jazz too, just out of interest Quote

Billy Apple Posted October 10, 2013 Posted October 10, 2013 [quote name='The Bass Doc' timestamp='1381400778' post='2238448'] Nigel should have great 'pride' in the project but I wonder if it will ever be his 'mane' bass. # You can't hide your lion eyes.....# [/quote] I've had to paws for thought at the grandness of all this. The Docs skill meant Nige did not have to hunt outside the family to get results. I'm sure others will pounce to get one similar. Quote

xilddx Posted October 27, 2013 Author Posted October 27, 2013 Some better pics. I went with a Hipshot A Bridge, it's what I really wanted. I love the Hipshot lollies! La Bella Black Nylon Tapewound strings. I think the frets need levelling which I'll do later. I'm really pleased with it, looks just like I imagined it would Quote
tommorichards Posted October 27, 2013 Posted October 27, 2013 did you clearcoat the scratchplate after spraying? Or is there no chance of the paint flaking off. Quote
KiOgon Posted October 27, 2013 Posted October 27, 2013 That's a great looking bass Nige - must be unique! Good job - you & uncle H. Quote
Billy Apple Posted October 27, 2013 Posted October 27, 2013 What an Iconic Basschat Bass. Won at the Bash. Made by the company that put the electric bass on the map. Modded by a member. With help from other Members. In tribute to a great Artist. Sometimes it doesn't get much better than to be around this kind of stuff. Quote
