There arent enough numbers in the world to compensate for your grace, but ahem, (17).

You guys would have to go and do this in the four months between me letting my Bongo go and receiving my new Stingray . . . :scowl:
Yes, yes we did!
Anyone think this is a good idea or a stupid idea?
I want to buy an OLP musicman, Rip the neck off, pull off all the hardware, puts an MM pick-up in and get a new MM neck and add to more bolts to the neck joint. SO basically im Taking the body of the OLP and making it Into a MM!
Give me some input.
PS: i will also be painting the body in a burst finish!

Curious as to where you plan on getting the neck. EB does not sell necks. You would have to get lucky and find one on ebay.
It's an okay idea but not something I would do myself. Frankenbasses arent my thing.

IMO by the time you spent the cash and did all that work you could buy a used MM and have the real thing.
Yes but it wont be very own peice of work,+ i already have to of the real thing, im just looking to play around! and its not really true the bass itself is only worth 250$ then the neck i could probably get for about 150 to 200 on ebay or something. then the electronics arent a problem I am able to get them direct! And paint also isent a problem my Friends dad is a paint specialist at PPG so he can mix it or spray it on doesnt matter!
i dunno yet im still debating. Speaking of that does anyone know where i can get a stingray body blank? warmoth doesnt sell Stingrays and i cant seem to find one anywhere! :s

Hey shelly, in a way , your bass does have a matching (natural) headstock
Yeah I know, but a natural headstock matching a natural body just doesn't have the same effect as, say, this...(photo credit to Bryan R. Tyler...beautiful instrument, Bryan!).
