My IB4 kit

[Asphaltwings]

Today I received my custom IB4 bass kit, ordered as mahogany body, maple neck with ebony fretboard and Tony Iommi cross inlays.

I did order Grover mini bass machine heads and a Babicz FCH string thru bridge as well but they did not show up in the package, but I have emailed Pitbull guitars and hopefully it gets sorted out.

They are really good with the missing stuff mate...express post to you asap.

I have to say I like that neck.....nice starting point.

Nice.

I can’t help but think though that the body looks very light in colour for mahogany, though it may just be the photo that does that.

Thanks, I thought the neck looked very nice myself, i'm torn between painting it a flat colour like the body (the front of the body at least) or staining it.

Nice.

It does look pretty light in the photo but I think that's the lighting, it does give off that distinct reddish colour of mahogany when you look in person.

That’s good to know. All the best with the builld.

Nice kit, i am looking forward to seeing it progress. Pitbull were great to deal with when i had a couple of issues.

Update: The bridge and machine heads are on back order and a few weeks away, so i will be spending my time sanding and figuring out exactly how i want to finish this guitar.
