P Bass - Bitsa (Newbie)

I put this together at the weekend.

 

Had a bit of a nightmare with a neck I purchased on here. Had to return it and it sat with Parcelforce for a week, that persuaded me to just use what I have. So my silver series squire P became the main donor, little nerve racking as I did like that bass it punched above its value for sure. Everything matched up pretty well though so no extra holes required (phew).

 

The build now has CS 62 P pups and a tonestyler. Strings are La Bella copper white nylon tapewounds 760C. They are a lovely string but think it could be better suited with something else or at least the smaller gauge. Shame I thought I'd give those strings a try but it's the second bass they don't quite work on (they went proper crazy on an unshielded Lakland).

 

I will probably get a parchment plate made up in time but the black matched the holes so got first go.

 

Nice little project. Might up the ante a bit and try and carve a neck now, any excuse to buy new tools!
