went to sand the headstock logo flush.. but aparantly it wasn't completely dry yet.. so i sanded the whole front of the headstock down to bare wood and will paint and stain it all again.. the logo was cut into the wood so that'll work just fine.. just gonna take some more time.. of which i have plenty as the clear on the top has to fully harden before i can sand and polish it before i can mount the bridge which i'll need to align the neck..
as to the shielding.. i think Simon is right.. it won't make a lot of difference to shield those short bits of wire.. besides i don't see much use for it when playing at home.. can't see myself playing bass for a band and performing live anyway.. since i'm actually mainly a guitarist..
why would a guitarist build a bass? well i do have a really nice guitar but the bass i currently have is really crap it rattles and buzzes all over the place so it was a better candidate to replace with a DIY instrument.
