Kinda NBD - NS Design Radius

[r16ktx]

I have a fretted Radius bass and an Ibanez SRF700 fretless. While the Ibanez is a great guitar it didn't come up to the quality and balance of the Radius.

So looking at my third guitar; a WAV Radius that i bought to 'trial' the Radius bass as I could not get one 2nd hand (i.e. cheap enough) when it struck me - defret the WAV!

Here are the before and after shots (well I didn't have a before so that one is from a shop site)

Before;

After;

     New Macassar Ebony fretboard with fret markers in the same manner as the Ibanez and glow in the dark side dot markers.

      Aluminium nut.

      All controls removed (leaving the piezo pickup).

      And refinished in a satin black (as in not matte or gloss).

As I can just about manage string changes all work was done by Nathan at the Brighton Guitar Workshop

I had a Bolin NS bass and the piezo pickup was just sublime. I still miss it

Over time I've ended up with three basses with N+B+P, N+B+P, P-Bassish+P (this one) And I only use the piezo on all of them because the regular pups sound so muffled in comparision

That's really great!
