Might be best to speak with a powdercoating business as that is how they do aluminium window & door frames as well as applying colours to car alloy wheels too.Quote:

Good idea Waz, I’ll investigate.... The dings - it fell off the workbench a while back. I was going to fill the gouges but have since decided I have j-basses covered in my current collection - so going for something different....

Fair call. I try not to have too many of the same shape as that tends to get boring.
With powder coating you may have to find someone to cut the metal to desired shape or they may be sophisticated enough to have a computer aided laser cutter and a suitable sheet of flat aluminium to work with.
Close of play today. Rasping almost done. I’ll clean up the lines during 80 grit sanding session
I’m now thinking of an mmb4 style pickup for the bridge, no neck pup. Would be nice if coil splittable...

That top horn looks a little sharply pointed to my eyes. Are you planning to round off the edges on the areas you've modified?
Yep sure am I prefer to use the rasp for bulk wood removal - the rounding out will come with sanding (including the pointy top horn...)Quote:

Hey Ponch, looks like you're having lots of fun.
Stock MMB kit PUP's are 4 wire so coil splitting is an option.
Jag-bass coming up!
Yep, heading in the Jag-ray direction!
