Got some lovely slabs of pine. Enough for two guitars. Or, more likely, enough to recover from a stuff up.

Looks amazing Pabs - just freakin amazing. Love this bass to death. Great job!

Thanks Gav, I'm really enjoying it so far. Will get a demo up as soon as I can record one without sucking massively. So, maybe never lol.

I think so. I reversed the fender pickup and that seemed to equalize the volumes. The other issues are still there, so I'll probably have to do a full rewire down the track. For now, it works well enough.

good stuff Pabs, pine is easy and soft to work with and cheap to replace.
Glad the volume issues have been resolved. Look forward to a sound demo
