Hammer and chisel...

I had some parts laying around so why not. I put an Artist (el-cheapo chinese) 34" roasted 5 string neck on a 4 string alder SX P body using a chisel and a sanding block. The only "good" parts on this are Hipshot Ultralite tuners and Dunlop straplocks. The pickup and bridge are generic cheap chinese things. I had some CTS pots, a Sprague Orange Drop cap and Puretone 4 contact output socket in my stash so threw them in too. Well b****r me, it's great. The B string is awesome, better than most of the 35" scale high end basses I've had, and it has 18mm string spacing at the bridge, which is my ideal. Plus, it weighs 8.4 lbs.
