Don't really know how long it has to be. Have to drill from bridge pup to control cavity....
Obviously you need a long drill length so you can angle the drill bit as flat as possible without the drill body getting in the way. You should be able to measure the distance with a ruler, from the middle of the control cavity, through the bridge pup rout to the edge of the guitar plus maybe 10-20mm for safety.
Well, in the next few days, It Begins.... Just waiting on a Template for the pup.
Is it OK to turn this into a Build thread?? or should I do that elsewhere??
You're best to start a fresh build thread. This will stay here as a resource point for others looking for similar information.

Will Do Zandit, Thanks...
I gotta get this thing done, every time I think about it, I spend more money. Just ordered Orange Drop Caps, Treble Bleed Kits, Pretty Wire, CTS Pot & Switchcraft Socket from PB, to add to the growing collection of parts. I didn't know that there were so many bits on a Bass..
I decided not to go without a Tone Control so I will also need a Jack Plate. Couldn't find one on the PB site,
If you have one in Black, guys it would be much appreciated if you chuck one in my order and I'll Paypal you the Difference......
The PUP Template arrived today but I (my wife) missed the Post Office, so I will have to wait till Monday there.
