I think these are some of the coolest kits. IIRC he PBGs are unique to PB, so you won't see them elsewhere. The closest I have seen to them are the...

PBG box arrived with a large centrally located puncture - first 0.0 pucker moment was hoping all the vitals were missed, which fortunately they were!...

Happy to help. What a great looking bass! I hope you'll add it to the Gallery section. Did you burn the designs into the wood? Very cool!

It indeed works very well. No noise and surprisingly good sound. Some details and small adjustments are missing, but the important part is finished....

That should work! Looks good ;-) Sent from my CPH2655 using Tapatalk

I will do it that way

Shielding looks good! Ground wire to the bridge looks good too, although you could just use the black wire that is already attached to the back of...

Thank you very much, I will follow your instructions. Greetings from Galicia

Thanks very much, yes you need to be careful how you look at the veneer in some places it's that thin - fortunately though there were very few areas...

Welcome Puppabear! Amazing to start with a completely-from-scratch project. Hope that it works as well for your son as it did for Brian May ;-) ...

Welcome to the forum. I see that you've already set up a build diary. Should be a fun one to watch. I have to agree with you, that there is something...

Welcome! My first build was also an ES type, although a bass rather than a guitar. I'll be looking forward to watching your build. I have done a...

...the stray black wire which is attached to the tone potentiometer (pot), is for grounding your bridge. Here's a video of someone doing that: ...

OK! So some good news. It looks like most of the soldering is already done. It is a bit odd they way they did it at the factory. Their color choices...

Thank you very much for your very complete and detailed response. I am sending you a photo of the kit that arrived to me. I think that with the...

This kit is my plan for later this year, and I'm planning some upgrades as well (pups and bridge). I'll be following this, and learning from you as...

Hello Tino! Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I think you are asking about how to solder your the wires on your kit? You can use the...

Hi Tim, sure I'd like to help you get rid of one of these . I would like a bolt neck, no. 1 would be fine. Thanks. Rick.

I was finally able to put some finish on the neck. This time I used Crystalac BriteTone instrument finish. I have been using gloss finish on...

This is a pretty common issue, either with body/neck or pickguard/neck fitting. Easiest to round the corners, since it looks like your neck and...

I have used their clear coat. I was hoping it would work like the paint, but it doesn't. It's not an acrylic like the paint. Not as easy to level out...
