Fantasy Time- Design Your Signature bass!

[BDL1991]

A bass version of that with the body flattened out abit. custom wound pick-ups say a Mudbucker at the neck and then a MM style Humbucker on the bridge. Active EQ, going V, V, stacked Bass, Treble, Mid, with a switch to knock the Humbucker into parallel and Series mode.
With a two Models one with a thinner C style 5 string neck, and the 4 string model with a rickenbacker style neck. The Colour options of Black Cherry, Sunburst, Candy Red and Black though maybe a White aswell.

Still love this Bass - Vadim right?

 

[Honk'n_down-low]

Here's mine. Already made.

Jim Mouradian? Right? Freaking Awesome!

 

[Gelfin]

Not quite a Jim Mouradian unfortunately. I have extreme GAS for a CS74. Impossible to buy one. (Unless someone on TB wants to sell one). So I started out to build my own and got a bit carried away. But hey it sure gets people asking about it.

What kind of program are you using to make those mockups? Photoshop or something?

Those are done by thndrstk6, he has a mockup thread where he will do requests. I believe he does use Photoshop.

ON BOARD:
Proximity Wah
Kaos Pad

String through flat mounted bridge.

The end.

 

[Simo98]

Im thinking probably a Rickenbacker 360 style body, classic rick pickup configuration, but with a little more P-bass shaped neck.

 

[Prataz]

Already own it =)

Jazz Bass with Maple Neck and Ebony Fretboard

 

[Drop-the-One]

Factors:
(1) For a number of reasons I would want a short scale.

(2) I love vintage instruments (and cars).

So my sig bass would be an umodified excellent condition 1968 Fender Mustang (special issue blue with racing stripes):

View attachment 156477

And my sig car would be a 1967 Shelby GT 500 Mustang (with racing stripes):

awww, SON! I had this (same colour) until the garage fire had its way this new years

It'd be this guy, with a brushed-silver line across the top, weaving in and out of a Chevrolet logo stencil/outline

 

[tom once dead]

ESP B series shape.
Neck through 5 string 34" scale. With slightly thinner neck.
See through Black, with solid chunk of quilted maple; matching headstock, with the cursive font
Rosewood Board, with black frets.
2 EMG DC 40's tilted like this FB | / / |bridge and EMG BQS
All Black hardware.

 

[EAdanikDG]

It would be this [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] with Bartolini soapbars, Bartolini preamp with A/P volume, balance, Mid/Mid freq stack, Bass/Treble stack, a Blackwood Burl top, Wenge neck and Maple Fretboard, oh and abalone inlays if they aren't pictured.

 

[Korladis]

This bass (photoshop done by thndrstrk)

All black rickenbacker, triangle inlays on a black fretboard. Chrome hardware, toaster neck pickup. Oh, and the tone knobs just there for show. Possibly with 21 frets.

 

[Schlyder]

Now we're talkin'! Sounds like a great bass. You're gonna love Jerzy's three octave board implementation. You can play all the way to the highest fret in good position; something that far too many bass designs won't allow with 24 frets, let alone 36.

I sent my deposit to Jerzy on Monday.
Jerzy is off for some R&R in the Canary Islands for a few days. After he gets back, I'm hoping to pick the Black Poplar burl top pieces, and then give the final OK on everything so he can get started on it.

a 24 fret ric would be pretty nice...

 

[Korladis]

a 24 fret ric would be pretty nice...

You'd have to move the neck pickup, as it's centered on where the 24th fret would be.
