Be gentle with me.....

OK guys...I've recently finished this "project" bass and thought I would ask for your opinions. Here's the lowdown:

1990 MIA Deluxe Neck
"Unknown" swamp ash body
Bartolini PUPS
Wood pickguard

Currently strung with D'Addario flats

The sound amazes me. The Barts really did the trick. So, what do you guys think??

 

[MAJOR METAL]

Groovy !

 

[Rattman]

What?!?!?!?

Are you kidding us? This was your project bass? I find the appearance amazing and beautiful...
And you say that the PUPS are really great too? Man...nothing to fear...nothing fear but fear itself..WELL DONE

 

[Papersen]

Looks really classy !
I like the way PG combines with the body. You`ve done a great job. Congrats.

 

[Super Dwarf]

that is a great looking bass man, looks so natural

 

[Fo' Shizzle]

That is STUNNING!!!!

The pickguard is gorgeous.....

 

[addylewis]

WOOOAAAHHH... - I LIKE IT!

 

[puff father]

+1 to all the above. Very nice!

Enjoy.

 

[aesir6]

That's beautiful!!!!!

 

[TimBosby]

Woah. You have more talent in your pinky than I have in my entire body + my clone's body (if I had a clone.) Anyway, I dig it. I especially like the wood pickguard...reminds me of a TBC bass. Sigh..I kinda want another TBC bass. And about 15 other basses.

Is it bad to want 20 4-string fretted basses when you have no job? Probably.

 

[bongomania]

Yep, that's a real looker! Love it.

 

[RandallFlagg]

Whoa!! Than you guys very much!!

I was a little leary of the wooden pickguard, but once I put it on, I fell in love with it. I have several basses but I have to admit that this one has sort of "stuck", if you know what I mean...

Thanks again!!

 

[CBRStingray]

Awesome looking bass! I love the wooden pickguard too.

 

[FL Knifemaker]

Well done! Did you do the wiring as well?? Have you thought about a preamp??

 

[steve21]

i'm not a bridge pup cover fan,... but it's so pretty! Very GG

 

[jbassbob]

It's a beauty. Are you taking orders

 

[RandallFlagg]

Well done! Did you do the wiring as well?? Have you thought about a preamp??

Funny you should ask! I have been seriously considering the J-Retro unit for some time now....just about to pull the trigger...Again, thanks for the encouragement guys!

 

[Pennydreadful]

SEXY

 

[ElBajista]

Wow, that's very nice looking.

What wood and wood stain did you use on the pickguard?

 

[agreatheight]

WOOT! Nice job, looks great!
