looks great and the clear pickguard is really cool! I hope it doesn't end up like some of my guitars where you pull the pickguard off and there is all this crud under there because you see it all :eek:
Almost there. I'll finish the wiring tomorrow. I also need to exchange the short scale flatwounds I accidentally picked up........
Bridge pup still has shrink wrap on it

awesome Ponch I've been waiting to see updated pics, on the home stretch now. What happened to Swans got pipped by the Dogs ?
The clear pickguard looks awesome Andrew! Really great build man.
cheers,
Gav.
Disaster Woks although Swans played a bit average...
One step closer to hearing this.. swapped over the strings for correct scale length. Enlarged control panel pot holes with a round file and fitted Bournes mini pots and switchcraft jack. Stock pot knobs. I'll finish the soldering tomorrow night.

Looking good Ponch. Is that an upgraded bridge as it looks chunkier than the standard kit unit?
Nice one ponch. Looking very close now. Great looking
build.
At Waz might be a gotoh bridge upgrade
Yep sure is, the bridge is a Goto. Its very sturdy indeed

Really nice bridges, I've got one coming for my MMB.
Certainly looks the biz.
And can I get this out of madams mits to get this set up - errr..... nope
All wired up and sounds awesome. Once set up I'll get a demo posted. Oh and the mwah of the fretless, I've seen the light!

Sorry Ponch, I missed most of this build (as its a bass) but I caught a glimpse of it on facebook and I had to have a look. It looks fantastic!! well done, you must be proud!:cool:
Cute little Bass player you have got there and looks like she has claimed ownership of your brand new axe.
Great photo man.
cheers,
Gav.
