Thread: My new "Beatle" style bass guitar

  1. #1
    Well it's done.

    I am now building another Pit Bull instrument, this time an LP style.

    This bass is beautiful to look at but plug it into an old Vox amp and you ..... Can't buy me love !

    Fantastic, Humphrey! Inspiring work for my build!

    Looks sweet! What sort of stain / finish did you use?

    I used the clear vintage ageing finish on the body ( Wudtone ) and vintage clear ageing on the neck. Lots of thin costs and it took three weeks in all. Thanks for the comments
