Yep, very happy with this as my first "finished" kit guitar. I'm not sure if it's finished finished because I'm not yet 100% happy with the action. Right now it seems like the nut is a little bit tall, but I don't want to start making adjustments until a few weeks have passed and the neck's settled in properly.

This one's technically build #2 - I've got a telecaster on the go but the dingotone still hasn't cured on it after 5 and a bit weeks, and with what I've learned from the bass I'm seriously considering sanding it and starting again because there are things I could do better./ I'll give it another week or two and see what happens though.

I'm not joking when I say that I can't figure out if there's more enjoyment in having the new bass or in building it. Wood work and especially wood finishing was not at all in my skill set before I started, and I'm finding that it's very relaxing and enjoyable to have something like this to work on, so there's every chance I'll just keep going and keep trying to improve each time. There's about 4 different ideas floating around in my head about stuff I'd like to try, so I've got plenty of inspiration to go on with.

Overall, I was expecting the process to be very difficult, and... well it wasn't easy, but it was far from the impossibility that I thought it might be 3 or 4 months back.
