    That's sort of how I started. I had a bass that was worth too much to mod, but not as good as I wanted it to play. I found a good quality "player" bass that I modded a little, then a cheap bass that I modded a lot. Then a kit to fill a niche. All of which prompted thoughts of "well, what do I really want, and how close can I get to it?" and "I wonder what niches I still have to fill...?" The trick is scratching the itch while not risking divorce ;-)

    Haha - yep. I would love to build three more guitars - a Les Paul Junior with a single P-90, a telecaster, and a Tom Morello copycat. Gonna have to balance that with keeping the wife happy lol. She was a saint through this. I have office paws and don't have a lot of handyman knowhow so this took me longer than it should have. Gotta love paternity leave!
