This was created from a cartoon image and scaled up to fit a 30 inch scale. I will be changing the neck profile, since a parallel string spacing will be a bit too close together. I need to get a couple of '51 style p-bass pickups, and use those and a nut width corresponding to my violin bass.The pups that show up in the toon show 4 pole pieces, hence the '51 fender style pups. Sadly this won't be a very playable instrament. The neck length would suggest a 24 fret instrament, however I will have to skip half the frets, since it's a 13 fret instrument. This is another reason why I am using scrap timber. Since it will be painted red... *all* of it, no one will see the laminated maple neck through or the laminated black walnut wings (walnut is also fairly light weight)
I will also be making a stainless bridge. Once I have the pups I can establish the string spacing for the bridge.
