The official "Show your basses" thread part 19!

[MovinTarget]

Okay, since you asked I only have rackspace for 12 in the studio and 8 in my office, so what's being played is out and others stay in the case until needed, and I've modded just about everything I own in one way or another... The acoustics are a different story and hang in another room.

Well here's my favorite

And a project with my son's first guitar he didn't want to sell it so we came up with a cool reason to keep it (laser-time)

Is that a Q5? Love the color!

I built it... Used a Steinberger Spirit neck and bridge as a donor. I needed something compact for travel and hated the tone of the original bass so I carved the body by hand and then use a laser to create the pickup bezels and put the logo on it. The color is Transtint with tung oil finish and then waxed.

Cheers!

Nice !
How do you like your Epi Prophesy ? I have the same one and it's one of the few 6's I have left. Mine hasn't been out of it's case maybe a dozen times.

That Epi plays and sounds amazing, only one I have because it's somewhat limited run and sounds great and mostly stays in the case here as well.

My son has the 2 Zakk Wylde series Epi's in bullseye and camo bullseye as well (might be collectors eventually)... and loves them

My Son will more than likely end up with my Prophesy soon. He would actually put it to good use.

Soooooooooo let me get this straight. You prophecy is that your prophesy will become your son's prophesy???

Your discernment is good my friend.

Here’s an interesting recent acquisition ... A Fender “Big Block” P bass body with a Warmoth roasted maple tele neck. Scored this for a very decent price.

The neck is ridiculously nice to play on... butter all day long. I happen to be a Warmoth neck fanboy. The stock pup is just “meh” and the bridge is kind of silly looking. I’m planning on swapping out both ... just not sure about what alternatives to use. I’d love to throw a Seymour Duncan 1/4 lb’er in her.

I dig her looks although YMMV I also like the tele control plate. There’s a lot of potential here

That bridge doesn't remotely match the one I have on mine. Suspect yours is an "upgrade". Kind of like the PU cover.

I just picked this up at a 2nd hand store. Its pretty raw, but I have to say I love the old look. But I’m a 6 string player, so probably will sell it. Or who knows, maybe I can start to learn bass. But what I need is some advice on what to have done. I think as minimal as possible, anyone agree? I think the old look works. I have googled the aria ii pro precise, and it seems this is from 1977. But the plate on the back is completely blank. I don’t know what that means. The tuners are Fender.

You got me beat. I could go with lighter gauge strings though.

The Warmoth SSB Sugar Pine P is the lightest p here in the house . It sounds amazing too .

Mine could weigh that if the neck was off. Impressive light weight monster.
