NBD !
Just got this sweet MM Cutlass from 2016. Almost new old stock, it has barely been played.
Currently sporting EB Cobalts flats, which I like ;-)
I never realised that the bridges for the Stingray Specials were introduced a few years before on the Caprice / Cutlass.

White, black and maple. I can't get enough of this now that it has black strings
my actual bass arsenal, Ibanez k5 with hipshot bridge and tunners and my new Sterling Ray 24 in olimpic white, more basses are coming soon
You can check out these two basses—and tons more—on my YouTube channel. Thanks for the support and greetings from Spain!
Love this project, it sounds incredible and plays out perfectly but it is a diver. I mean look how far away the upper bout is lol. Still it has the toan so for tracking yeah and its the one ready and waiting.

A 90s Clover Basstard 5, 25-fret 36" composite bolt-on neck, flamed maple body. Amazing sound.

Finished this one tonight. It was my first attempt at building a bass. It has an Allparts neck, BYO Swamp Ash body, ESP bridge and Fender tuners and pickguard. The pickup is a Seymour Duncan SPB-1 and I used CTS pots, Sprague cap and a Switchcraft jack. Currently strung up with D'Addario Chromes but I don't know if I love them yet. Might switch to Elixir NPS or DR Legend Flats.
Also, I sprayed the body with nitro. That stuff was wicked to work with! Even outdoors with a mask on, I thought it smelled like cancer. Not sure if I'll use it again. The neck is finished with oil-based polyurethane and it feels very nice. Not sticky like the nitro necks I have played.
