Hmm, might be time to have another look at this build. I finished this at a kinda funny time, I'd just taken the guitarist position in a band and have been playing guitar not bass continually since. So it really hasn't seen any use, and I had a look at it the other day and noticed that I will have some more work to do.
Things to think about...
Plastic nut too high and too cheap. Ordered a brass one online.
The bridge is too high. Two options here, replace the bridge with something lower or rout the front of the body a couple mm with the corresponding heartache to the finish. The lower bridge option I'm not sure about, a stock precision style one would be a little lower but I don't think I'd like the look. Even that might not be low enough to give the correct range of adjustment.
The headstock stain is a bit iffy, when I scraped off the original finish I didn't sand the headstock clean before staining it and thus shows through.
The truss rod plate finish is marked, I sanded the plate before applying the decal and this shows the scratches through the clear. I have a second decal.
The clear on the front of the guitar has tiny pits in it. Didn't worry me when I finished it as it was so rough I was happy with the save I made, but hanging next to my 93 Stingray it doesn't look right. The back black stained parts are pretty much perfect, I'm confident with some more clear coat and polishing I could make it right.
So, there's a list! The thing I'm most nervous about is the routing, especially as I like the Jarrah stain. Still thinking about these fixes, but might make a start sometime in the next week or two when the nut arrives.
