I found a little model of a bass I freehanded a long long time ago. I've already got all the wood and hardware, need to order the pickups and start cutting the shapes. If you can't read my handwriting, I'll put all the specs down here. Tell me what you guys think. (Don't make fun of my crappy drawing please. Haha.)
Hardware - brass
Hofner Ivory tuners
Alebmic style bridge & tailpiece
brass fretwires and knobs
glass dot inlays
bone nut
fretboard - cedar
neck - birdseye maple
my name on 12th fret and my initials on the headstock
DiMarzio DP120 Model One pickups
3-way selector switch
2 volume - 2 tone knobs
Lefty accessable
Outer wood - walnut
2nd - pine
stripes - hickory
inner - walnut
headstock - same
30" scale. I was going to plan bigger but the model one pickups are designed for EB-0's at the neck, so string spacing has to be tight.

but for real, I dread actually starting this. I'll have to because of all the money I spent on the parts, but I really REALLY don't feel like doing this. I'm thinking of dropping it all on a luthier. Haha.
