My P Bass resurrection

Sign in to disble this ad
I bought this squire p bass back in 05 to put a kahler bridge on on it.After I sold the bridge it sat around and became a real beater.Now I`ve decided to fix her while I gather parts for my next build.
Punk bass and busted.

The old cut out for the bridge


The block for the new bridge.

The jazz pickup filler.

The damage.


I think I might just paint it black and just clean it up.I might add a humbucker and white pickgaurd.Any ideas Im open as long as its cheapish.

Looking beautiful. I like the contour on the horns a lot. It's definitely the little things.
