    Greetings

    Hey there, just jumped on board officially a few days back but have yet to fully introduce myself. Name is Campbell and am a very keen amateur modder/builder. I have been playing bass for 22 years and dabble with the 6 string. Big fan of vintage basses and guitars but am known to enjoy a pointy axe on occasion. I have just purchased the 5 string jazz bass kit with maple neck and am shaking with excitement waiting for its arrival.

    Thanks for the warm welcome. I am very keen to get building. I am thinking lake placid blue for the bass and a few other personal tweaks. Will start a build journal once it lands. Also putting together a scratch build of a Charvel Surfcaster but that will be a more long term project.
