Four knobs...three are push pull.....has a split humbucker.....has front coil or humbucker or back coil....has parallel and series between two pickups.
The fifth Bass string is tuned to a low B....hence the name.... LOW BEE.
She is very shiny and smooth and sounds amazing with just the original PBG Chinese pickups.

This is my first build
It took me almost a year but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.
P bass kit, not additions or substitutions.
Hand painted design with high gloss clear coats, stain and satin finish on the neck.
Sounds great.

Wow, two equally cool but very different basses straight up. I'm hoping to throw mine in the ring this month as well.... so this might be veeeerrry interesting.

ESPM 1 No mods. The body finish doesn't look great there's a few marks left by the clamping on the back of the neck and front of the headstock. Other than that it's okay, not too fancy but plays well, low action and sounds good even with stock pups. The two basses are really nice, but I'm posting my pics anyway:Attachment 29146Attachment 29147Attachment 29148Attachment 29149Attachment 29150
