Dov65 Posted February 12, 2020 Posted February 12, 2020 Any ideas who could make a string through P bass body with a Music Man pickup route, rear loading (Flea look a like) ? Cheers for any feedback Quote
Muzz Posted February 12, 2020 Posted February 12, 2020 The Warmoth page is always good fun for a play with the configurator...then there are lots of luthiers who could help. I presume you have a neck, as long as it's a standard heel then the Warmoth option is a goer, if not the a luthier will make the body to fit... If you are thinking luthier, Jon Shuker is my favourite, but there are lots and lots of others, too. 2 Quote
uk_lefty Posted February 12, 2020 Posted February 12, 2020 I've seen a Limelight P with an MM pup it's probably still on the gallery page of their website. Looked good. Quote
Dov65 Posted February 12, 2020 Author Posted February 12, 2020 Cheers gents 👍 i've got a jazz bass up for sale which i'll withdraw and part out, i'll keep the neck tho it'll do for this project. Quite fancy a p/j configuration aswell as i've a dimarzio set in cupboard. Contacted a few online companys but not heard back...early days yet...anyway cheers again Quote

fleabag Posted February 13, 2020 Posted February 13, 2020 Blimey, you'd think there were no excellent bass builders on here for the asking Quote
Bassassin Posted February 13, 2020 Posted February 13, 2020 You could look out for one of these: Aria STB-GT from about 12 years or so back. Not string-through but that would be a pretty simple mod. 2 Quote

Picked up a cracking P bass body yesterday so it just needs routing out for a MM pup. I've got a contact back in the Kingdom who hopefully would do it just the matter trying to get hold o him. Working away don't help either not got much time come a long weekend. 1 Quote
fleabag Posted February 14, 2020 Posted February 14, 2020 oooer, that is a rather spiffing looking lump of wood 1 Quote
