You going for a Bridge cover as well? good point, Sir. no I am leaving it like that ... I understand what you mean; if I had a larger and bulkier bridge as well, the carbon bass ( 🙂 ) would look less casual and, maybe, a bit more suited, but I think I am gonna leave it like that ...

I had a bit of time to work on the final tuning, and now I am ready for the soldering and testing. I had put the covers on the pickups, plus another layer of black paint to finish it better. I am also finishing the plate that is gonna be on the back to cover the electronics. This is how it looks like as final from the front: Yes -like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbacco Posted March 7 Author Share Posted March 7 The carbon bass is finally finished. I re route the front to host a plate for the controls, as I found too much this time to create an ad hoc cover for the back. This is the final result, on the usual OSB floor that everyone is crazy about! (hahaha). Thanks, and see ya next time folks! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodders Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Love the double pickup covers and the control plate/knobs combo! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the control plate, I know it is not straight and perpendicular to the pickups, but I took a standard jazz 70' bass plate, and crop it to my design with the mitre saw! haha ... I will re route the cavity for the control to make it more 90 degrees to the whole bridge/pickups/strings hardware!
