Mock up?

It’s ok if it is too much to ask, but could somebody here please make me a digital mock up of a 50s style Fender Musicmaster.

It should have;

- A pink paisley finish

- A Hofner 182 bass neck

Thanks in advance, sorry if I’m wasting anyone’s time.

Can you show me pics of the exact body/neck combo you want? doesn't have to be correct finish, that's easy enough to play with.

If I get bored at work I'll have a go at it.

Ok no worries. I'm just about to wrap up for the day so I'll have a look a little later on.

What, no clear scratchplate with pink sprray on the reverse around the pickup and control cavities? ;)

Jolly good work, Sonic!

Note that the Hofner has a straight neck that doesn’t widen towards the body, so a Fender-style kit neck won’t look quite the same, though it will make it compatible with Fender style bridges and pickups. There really is a very limited (to non-existent if very narrow) choice of narrow-spaced bridges and pickups unless you can find some vintage units. And they were generally cheap and nasty.

Well you know it could be done! It’s a whole lot easier in the virtual world 😊

Heh, glad you like. This doesn’t take too long if I’m in the mood for it. There is a graphics help thread somewhere on this board .

Yeah actually I noticed that when I was drawing, and the string spacing in my mock up is pretty naff. I actually introduced a bit of a taper because it looked so weird. The gist is there though.
