nice one Bman did Ads give you the kit to build as its a new kit ?
I'd think about a screw in bridge as Waz suggested, too much string tension for the 3 point bridges. Think every ESB-4 builder has had problems with it lifting

I had an SG Bass made in Japan in the 70's, wish i still had it, was easy to play, maybe maybe maybe.
Looks good Brendan.
Best thing you can do with the 3 point bridge is to tie a length of string to it, swing it rapidly around and launch it at your least favourite neighbours roof.
Then get a Babicz.
So I'm seeing that there is little love for the three post bridges. Will have to have a look in my box of tricks to see if I can come up with something a little more loved...
I've had a fossick and the only bridge I can find is the original (not my favourite style - hence the replacement) or replacement one for my ash Jazz, which I've pre drilled. May give this one a go - see how it works out - worst case I get to sand it all back and start again - worse things have happened (and won't be the first time)!
Why do I get the feeling that your neighbour's rooves are strewn with random GOPP's (grain obscuring plastic parts) and ill favoured bridge componentry?Quote:

ahha classic, by the sounds of it some neighbors of forumites may have enough parts on their roofs to build an entire kit ahha
sure DB's neighbor has a few iceman and mosrite bodies on his roof haha
Sanding almost finished - loving the grain - even on basswood it seems to be pretty special.
looks good Bman, what colour stain is going on this ? Looks like the pot/switch/jack layout is the same as a SG guitar.
Don't see too many bass guitars with a pup selector switch !
So maybe not a stain...
