Angel Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Is there a resource anywhere for bass plans - postscript pdf rather than image files? I'm looking to make a bass at some point. I'm sure that I had a site bookmarked with a lot of fender stuff, but I can't seem to find it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itu Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 (edited) F-word stuff? Isn't that done too many times already? I am after something else but it is true that there are few good fenderish instruments, like Limelight and Sadowsky. But to do another one, I think there is space for something completely different made in the best possible taste (like Kenny Everett). I have three custom made basses. All were sketched with pen and paper. I love the results. Edited May 13, 2019 by itu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel Posted May 13, 2019 Author Share Posted May 13, 2019 I'm (probably) not going to make a Fender copy, but I've made 5 guitars and I like to start with a pdf plan that I can then edit to get it the way I want. It can look radically different but still have the basic geometry of a bass that one likes. Having said that, nothing wrong with making a Fender-like, or any other copy if that is what one wants to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
