    Thanks for the comments. Finished installing everything last night and completed the soldering today and it works!! The 3 way switch is a bit touch and go so I've order a better quality one, but other than that all good. Really happy with how it's turned out, and managed to get the action at 12th fret to 2.5mm with no buzz. I guess things will settle down a bit and maybe need a bit of tweaking here and there. I'll get some decent pictures up later.

    Thanks, I had to order a new 3 way switch as the kit one packed up, but other than that its all stock. As soon as it's fitted I'll get a demo up.

    Thecarbon fibre look is amazing. Really sets this bass off. Great work
