Hello, everyone. Some time ago I decided to put together a custom bass for myself. I thought I would design it in some CAD software I was trying to learn, let Warmoth build my neck, and I would get all the various parts together. I have some screenshots here I would like to share and get some opinions on from the community.
I wanted a Rick, but they are just too expensive. So I started the design from the Rick silhouette, and went from there. It is a five string fretless, and I decided to go with one Aguilar DCB-5 MM type pickup, and a Ghost Acoustic-Phonic piezo bridge. I found a luthier in Georgia who would be willing to route it out of a blank of wood I bought from Exoticwoods.com. Two pieces of hard rock maple with a stripe of walnut down the center. Here are the screenshots!
