NBD: MJT/Warmoth surf green P bass

[dtyndall]

Thanks for viewing guys. I've been putting this together since January, really just waiting to get the body and neck to get it assembled. The specs are:

Warmoth neck, 3A birdseye maple.
MJT surf green nitro body, closet clean.
Klein pickups
Hipshot lollipop tuners
Spitfire tort pickguard, Crazy 60's
Classic Vibe bridge (love the brass saddles on my Matt Freeman bass, they age nicely)

She sounds and plays great.

For your viewing pleasure:

Looks good. I've looked at their stuff for awhile, but just know I would do a terrible job. You are better than me.

I don't know that one can really do a "bad job". It all comes down to your personal taste; I've wanted a surf green P bass with a figured neck for the longest time and figured this would be the best way to go about it. I have a feeling you'll be happy when all is said and done.

Super cool!!! That turned out great! Beautiful neck!

You have great taste in colors although yours is quite a bit darker. The pics don't look like it but it's light blue. I put it together a few months back.

That's a neat bridge. Who makes it?

Congrats! MJT (and you) do great work.

One suggestion if I may, finish off that beauty with a custom decal. It deserves one.

Killer!

Just digging up some old MJT threads. Very cool stuff.

What's the bass with the flame neck?

 

[HELLonWHEELS]

Looks great! Have you considered a white guard? It might make the birdseye pop more.

That looks great! I love those lollipop tuners with the surf green. Also love the tort guard. Very cool!!

That's a Music Man Old Smoothie. It was a limited batch that Sweetwater was putting out a couple years ago. Still the nicest neck I've seen but I'm kind of biased
