Stub Mandrel Posted July 6, 2020 Author Posted July 6, 2020 I did think of 'Imprecision Bass' but technically I'd argue a 'Precision Bass' as any one with frets... 🙂 5 minutes ago, bertbass said: Ma Deb Y Me Trouble is that's very rude in Welsh... I feel a bit guilty about 'made by me' as aside from shaping the headtock it's just painting and screwing the bits together... 1 Quote

SpondonBassed Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 Excision Bass (Works best if you make a heart-shaped hole through the body). Quote
Stub Mandrel Posted July 6, 2020 Author Posted July 6, 2020 Seeing as how I've cut the very end off it... CIRCUMCISION BASS Quote
Stub Mandrel Posted July 6, 2020 Author Posted July 6, 2020 Oh that's been done.... I blame the minions... Quote
Stub Mandrel Posted July 6, 2020 Author Posted July 6, 2020 I could play a straight bat assuming it doesn't have any kinks in it I could go with: "Hardly Bent-One" 6 Quote
Chienmortbb Posted July 7, 2020 Posted July 7, 2020 will you do any reshaping to the body and what about electrinics/hardware? Quote

No I want a standard body shape, I'll use the supplied hardware and only upgrade if I need to - rumour is its pretty decent stuff considering the silly price... £77 - I couldn't even buy neck, fingerboard and body timber for that. 2 Quote

Looking forward to it. Seems the price has gone up since you bought it. Quote

stewblack Posted July 8, 2020 Posted July 8, 2020 There has been a price increase on a few HB basses. Probably because I didn't buy one last month 2 Quote

That sounds fun! Maybe that's if you're doing a 'Larry Graham' painted fretboard-job (which would be cool). Edited July 8, 2020 by Ricky 4000 Quote
