- I want to make my own bass next. I have the bug bad and need to do it! I am hoping to build a 5-string, fretted, prettyprettypretty bass. Possibly with flamed maple top or similar... suggestions and advice welcome!
Update: Built two basses from scratch - one fretless fiver and one fretted, top-swappable fiver. So consider the itch scratched. Now it's a full on obsession.
I'd also like to get a good old Fender Jazz Bass (USA). - Gigs, Bands, & Ensembles:
