Hey Jess, what an awesome result, you should be really proud of this guitar. One of the best bursts I've seen so far.
In regards to basses... have a look at what Dingo Bass did with one of our IB-5 kits:

Nice work Jess
Hey Guys, the bar has just been raised with this great sunburst!
The Hofner Bass is my personal favourite out of our Basses.
It has got everything going for it, the balance is great, it is nice and light and it sounds scarily like Sir Paul's classic Beatle Bass...
There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....
Bass I'm a beginner at playing, but being that I would be a bit hesitant to go with such a unique shape.. though it looks incredible! (the hofner)
That is a really nice bass Adam! So tempting. How many guitars is too many?
Also, it means a lot to have you all say such nice things about my guitar... thanks
Adam, DB...
What finish is on that bass?

You can NEVER have too many Guitars... or in my case, Basses! I now have 7 in my collection and no doubt that will only grow.. Lucky I have a very understanding and supportive partner
OK, so if you consider yourself a novice Bass player, the Hofner would be a great choice as it is a 3/4 scale.

"Too many guitars", lol you're funny Jess. (I have 17 in my little unit)
But seriously, if you want a bass, start with a JB-4 or PB-4, they're both considered the "standard" in basses and they look very cool.
Have a look on YouTube and see what basses the bands you like are using. I'm sure you'll see a lot of Fender Jazz Basses (JB) and Fender Precision Basses (PB).
Cheers,
Adam

Yes. the JB and PB are great Basses.
My fav out of these two would be the JB as it is the very first Bass I ever played way back in the early 80's in High School.
Our school band had 5 Guitar players and our teacher played Bass, it was a Fender Jazz with a fretless Schecter neck.
It was his pride and joy.
One day he looked at me and said you are now the Bassist and handed me this beautiful instrument.
That is what started me on my lifelong love of the Bass, and why I have such a love for the fretless variety.... But i digress...
As Adam said, check out what your idols are playing, go to your local Guitar shop and try out a few and you will know what suits you best.
You never know, one day your name could be up there with Carole Kay and Tina Weymouth as one of the worlds best Bass Chicks!

17! Now that is something I can aspire to! I currently have 6, 7 if you count my uke.... I am a little bit worried about becoming a crazy guitar lady... (ie crazy cat lady) but hey. i already have a music room so why not keep filling it!
I like the PB style most so far... the red pickguard is nice too.. 3/4 would be a benefit though. It probably make it a little easier to learn. I played for a little while I just never had my own, the extra distance between the frets was always a killer!
Bass players are always the cool ones....
