Short scale? Cause the bridge is WAY forward.

Yeah,a 32" or 30" warmoth I have both and will give each a try.

Looking good Pudge!

Here is the start of mine. Body curiosity of Pudge. I just need to make a spot for the neck pickup.

I haven't decided on a color yet. Maybe a trans color. White or ?? any suggestions?

The grain on that body is pretty good.Maybe something like a mary kay see thru.My plan was to dark fill the grain and have a friend shoot it trans orange.

..... but it's winter here in N.Y. and that tends to hang around for a while.He paints in his garage BRRRR. On the bright side the humidiity is low.

Anyone tried single coil Chi's with a pre amp? I'm thinking about getting a 44-01 and dropping some in - I see Hanon offer them as a direct replacement for the Barts that it comes with. I basically want a bass with big singles coils, that can do something somewhat like a jazz tone, with both active and passive.

Any recommendations for a pre amp that matches well with the Chi's, or are they better off being left passive?

I've had an Audere in my Decade. The house started to move off it's foundation, so I have forced to take it out.

I got these Chi-Sonic pickups, from Bo, in 2011. For a variety of reasons the bass did not get completed until last week. It started out as an Aria DMB-380 in sunburst finish. These basses come with generic jazz style pickups. They sounded fine but boring. Since so much time had passed, I had forgotten what the Chi-Sonics were going to sound like. Man, my head almost exploded with delight when I plugged in! I'm not too great at describing sound. I like what I like. And I really love these pickups. They Punch through like a freight train. Extremely well balanced output. They really respond well to your attack. They can do modern growl or vintage rock and funk tones depending on where and how hard you dig in. No flabby bottom with these. They stay nice and tight. Very impressive. I'm gonna get some more of these. This time I won't wait three years to get them installed.
