Chienmortbb Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 (edited) You have inspired me Andy. I am only doing a out build but I might post it on here. Or I might send it to you for finishing! I found out that the bridge you used is a Sung Il BB404. Unfortunately Axesrus are discontinuing Wilkinson and Sung il and only have the chrome ones left in stock. One more question which Di Marzio PUPs did you use? Edited February 2, 2016 by Chienmortbb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andyjr1515 Posted February 2, 2016 Author Share Posted February 2, 2016 Hi, Chienmortbb Didn't realise Axesrus were dropping some of those. Great shame! I'll get the model number of the DiMarzio PJ set for you in the morning . Pleased you're doing a build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andyjr1515 Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 Hi Chienmortbb They are DiMarzio model P+J DP126. Just over £100 for the set which is not bad against many. It is the EQ, though that really makes the difference. That's a Seymour Duncan STC-2P. Very intuitive to use and superb range of tones able to be extracted from either the DiMarzios in Kert's bass, or the SD Jazz pickups I have in my Bubinga fretless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keefbaker Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Looks incredible. I have to ask though, has anyone done the Red Dwarf, "Your guitar is made from camphor wood?" joke yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazed Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Fantastic! Dangerously inspiring. I've got a saw and chisels somewhere. Must find wood!

Andyjr1515 Posted May 5, 2016 Author Share Posted May 5, 2016 Thanks, Kert I'm delighted you're pleased with it. It was a very satisfying and enjoyable build. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 It looks even better than I remember it and the flat tone with both pickups on is dreamy. Such a nice bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuNkShUi Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 That's pretty much how I run it! A tad panned to the rear, and the VLE on my MarkBass amp boosted a touch, which is basically bass and treble boost. Yeh I love it Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gelfin Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Saw and played this at the Cardiff Bass BAsh today. Have to say it is awesome. In feel, playability and sound. I think I want one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
