I'm making a custom bass and I was wondering if anyone knew of any books that could be helpful. Something that would tell me how to do the electronics, attach the neck, bridge, action, intonation, etc. A "How to Build" bass would work or maybe a "Custom Shop" or "Repair" book. If anyone has any suggestions please tell me.

Thanks,

Kenan Sugar O'Brien

Hi There,

I have sourced the parts and built about four basses now....consequently I have just put together an e-book which will show you all you need to know.....There is a sample chapter to download. Soon I will be launching a customers gallery and also an affiliate programme as well.....check it out...Hope it helps you......www.buildabass.com
