Beautiful bass. Not to nit-pick, but isn’t the Aguilar logo on the pickup supposed to be the treble-side?View attachment 3952887
Hey Eric,
Thanks for nit picking! I was in such a hurry to try it out I didn’t even notice the swapped covers. Pulled it apart this morning to fix it.
 
From scratch - you started with wood planks and built a bass? Or you assembled parts? Either way is great, just trying to establish if you're a Super Hero or just a Hero :)

Very sharp looking bass! How does it sound? What tuners did you use? How much does it weigh?
