Sound's good! Welcome! I understand how you feel. My first was also a semihollow bass.
As far as advice, we usually recommend starting a build diary. Good place to get advice from members, and folks also like to watch the progress ;-)
Other advice: When you get the kit, do a dry-fit to make sure sure the neck fits in the pocket, that you have all the parts, and that you can get the bridge/scale-length/neck all to line up properly.
If you have any questions or are not sure about something, ask questions, post pics. The site has experienced builders as well as people who have minimal experience with tools. So no question is too small.
I envy you the "men's shed." Wish we had them here!
