    Fixed and in daylight.

    I should know not to do things in the dark at night at the end of a day. The neck pickup chrome cover was spot on....the bridge ashtray one....5mm difference on the sides. All fixed and new hole neatly hidden by the cover and they are both straight now.

    Height at the NUT set this morning....E came down about 2 mm the others less.

    String Action is spot on 5/64 at the 17th fret....plays nice at that....4/64 gets a little twang occassionally.

    This one has not taken my normal threee months to complete....the finish was natural oils and waxes and they worked great.

    This is the most fun, and I believe the best end result I have produced yet in my short Bass building life/hobby/career. She makes 21 guitars in my possession.....oh my G.A.S. is inflamed in this one.
