1st Bass Build :D : P/J Rising...

Nice job the bass looks really awesome . How it sounds.

Thanks, it's sounding great to me!

It seems closest to my SB-1 in tones how I've been using it so far (generally P pickup dimed w/ the J pickup blended in to taste), but there's a bit of a short scale effect & that J pickup is really effective for accentuating the high mids/attack (probably the most effective blend I've encountered). Going through the Metro 20 board on the same settings I've been using for the other basses into the Terror Bass or V-4B it's got a really nice dynamic growl to it when digging in w/ the right hand & a nice saturated clean when approaching it w/ more finesse.
