    The scratchies continue.

    Continuing on from last year's pine scratchy tele style guitars, I have decided to try some tele bass guitars (and hopefully a Dusty Hill inspired tele).

    Been collecting some resources over the last few months. Got some PB bass necks, a couple of hardware packs, and an Entwistle jazz pickup. Got a few different bass pickups and some pickguard blanks. Also have a '51 P-bass control panel (vol and tone control only) on order.

    Just finished making some mdf templates. The body template is about 6 mm wider than my 6 string tele template to take the bigger neck. I had intended to only have a neck pickup (but this may change). The headstock pattern templates push onto the headstock so that when routing the shape there is no need for clamping (or screwing or tape).

    Now just need to get some wood.

    The little voices in my head keep telling me "build more guitars"
