Beedster Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 (edited) ..... building the bass I've been wanting for years Ingredients: One piece of extremely well-figured ash, sourced and shaped our own Bass Doc One bottle of teak oil One 1971 Fender Precision neck by J Torres with a modified unlined fretless ebony board One John East P-Retro pre-amp (that's what's in the rather enigmatic silver bag) One Lindy Fralin P-PUP One set of La Bella Deep Talkin' flats One bent bit of tin One six pack of Heineken (OK, I've done two already) Several screws, plates, wires etc. Results, with any luck, this time tomorrow C [attachment=52633:Image0012.jpg] Edited June 19, 2010 by Beedster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
