Thanks Wokka it set up pretty good still need to tweet the intonation. Sounds pretty good imo, but I am not a guitar player. I am not too sure on the tone pot doesn't seem like it makes enough change. I am just running it thru a small mixer and powered speaker that I use to practice my bass with headphones. I am taking it a gig tomorrow and gonna have the guitar player check it out with his Fender amp.
Thanks Rossco but that splated lp is pretty awesome and the strat finish top notch and the others tough competition. I am just happy to have it done. Now to finish my two basses.

no worries DD sounds good. Maybe you need to change the capacitor value to have more tone variation. See what the guitarist thinks in your band.

Hand crafting guitars, because Death Rays are expensive.
I know Andy,, you have to treat them like ladies.. they cooperate way more when you give them flowers.....
thanks for the kind words everyone.
