Pea Turgh Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 This looks great! Just looking at the way the body and neck cleaned up is so satisfying! What about getting a 3D printed copy of the pickup cover? Or just getting a neck pup that doesn’t match but is roughly the same size? Maybe one of those uk-based pickup makers would love the challenge of making a new one to match the old one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer of the Bass Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 The HiGain or Toaster style pickups here might suit the vibe of the bass quite well. https://retrovibe.co.uk/product-category/parts/pickups/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigwan Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 New pickguard and a set of chinabuckers (https://www.eyguitarmusic.com/Thunderbird-Bass-Pickup-Vintage-Style-for-GibsonChromeNickel_p_2287.html) would be my choice... But routing may be required for that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
