PK, did you notice the bridge was positioned back to front on the 5 string bass? ;)

ha ha, Thought as it was a mock together, and it wouldn't be screwed up. but if it is screwed then it's screwed rofl.

mind I can't see any screws with Zoomfox. :D

Hi All.

I was looking for a way to keep the wiring neat so it will sit nicely in the chanel, So I put on My PC techy hat and went off to the Big Green Shed and bought some clips. I bought two types 1 that the wires clip into and the other you use a plastic tie to hold them in place.

Given the wiring chanel is about 23-24 mm wide between pick ups it was going to be too tight to use the tie down styles, so I used the clips which are about 15mm wide by about 25-30mm long. I measured the centre of the pup[s so I should get these babies somewhere close to centre leaving me a few mm each side.

See Pic. Looks neat. :D

Cheers PK

nice attention to detail Paul

Nicely done. Great idea!

Nice! Will remember to do this myself next time. Really is a pain keeping those wires in the channel - great solution!

cheers,
Gav.

Warning warning...... I used suposedly low tack green masking tape on the headstock of this build and the crap has ripper off the corner of the decal, and left residue all over the face of the headstock.... I am really annoyed, as I was only a few days from assembly. Now I'll have to strip back the face of the headstock and do it all over again.

I Think I'll stick to 3M blue tape

bummer Paul, definitely avoid any masking tape on any part of the build, should only use proper painters tape. So that means probably no April GOTM entry this late in the month, that must be heart breaking. Hopefully you will sand it back and do a better job of the headstock

Hi Wokka,

This is supposed to be low tack painters tape. It's Shuretape Painters tape Made in Canada. Must have a useby date.

Cheers PK

well that really sucks Paul, bugger, oh well you certainly won't use that tape again, stick to 3M !
