That is one mighty fine sin against Fender.

Oh man that is a GORGEOUS bass! I think Leo will forgive ya! Let's hear clips!

The way I look at it it's OK as long as it comes out looking better than any current production model. From the pics it looks like you fall within the guidelines. Here's mine:

Thanks, but I have yet to master the single coil tone after playing a '69 Jazz for nearly 40 years.

It has a Rio Grande Muy Grande Boomah Grande pup in it.

Man, I've been catchin so much flack for the bean bag. I agree it's cheesy but it held the basses (yes there are more pictures than this) at just the right angle for the camera. And it's such a nice bean bag. A real one that I got from my boss straight from the real 70s unlike the bass.

Too bad the truss rod hole just screams Squire anyway.

Absolve yourself of sin by giving it to me.
