    Thx for the kind comments ponch, Hobie, Weirdy and Waz.

    I really wanted to hear what hummers would sound like in a strat and with a trem. Its different, I'll give it that. I just find strats more comfortable to play.

    I agree Ponch, the neck was pretty faultless for a 7 year old guitar.

    you will love the bass Andy, and it's my first jazz bass too so I'm excited ! Have you got a bass amp to play it when yours is done ?
    I played bass through a guitar amp for years and you really miss out on the full sound, plus it kills guitar amp speakers haha.
    I did some micro mesh sanding on my body lastnight so about to finish that, mesh the neck, polish and assembly time !
    Scored a day off woohoo
    oh and Andy once you have played a fretted bass you will need a freless bass haha
    Current Builds and status
    scratch end grain pine tele - first clear coat on !
    JBA-4 - assembled - final tweaks
    Telemonster double scale tele - finish tobacco burst on body and sand neck

    Completed builds
    scratch oak.rose gum Jazzmaster - assembled needs setup
    MK-2 Mosrite - assembled - play in
    Ash tele with Baritone neck - neck pup wiring tweaks and play in

    That's it Woks! Then after the first fretted/fretless bass build you will have developed BAS!

    Guitar amps and particularly speakers have a mid boost which is unkind to Bass Sounds. I played in a Bush Band for a few years and used a small Music Man combo for convenience and portability. Changed the 12" speaker out for a 15 but kept the hole the same size. Worked OK for that job. Eventually sold it for what I had paid....
