Raring to go!

Hey All!

Cade here (more commonly go by Coop). I managed to order a sneaky JazzBass jb-4 kit yesterday online while the missus was sleeping and I'm pretty excited to get started once it arrives. This will be a first time build attempt for me while I look to gain further understanding of the process, and hopefully at the end of the journey I will have a beauty new bass to be proud of. The model is similar to a current SX custom bass I was given as a gift, so if all goes well I will hope to try a more advanced kit of a different style in the future.
The video's and instructions here look great and are very detailed, which played a big part in me deciding to give this a go so well done and thanks!

Cheers

Hi, Cade and welcome.

Don't forget to do a build diary, as regular photos and updates can help others keep your build going smoothly. Just take your time; measure twice, cut once and all that kind of thing, and you should have an enjoyable build and a great bass at the end of it.

I've bought her a brand new acoustic for Christmas as well Stan. I'm hoping if I bring them out at the same time she will be subdued as opposed to using them to beat me across the head with...
