Pickup & electronics tomorrow, if things go to plan.
 
I'll be in no hurry to do something like this again

The poly finish is way thicker than you think, and uneven too, every time I thought I'd gotten through it & put the dye on, nope missed a spot, sand it some more...

Not 100% thrilled with the result but it'll have to do, just waiting on the lacquer to show up.
Very cool to see it take shape!

Have to laugh at this, things did not go to plan, no pickup, so no progress...

Hey, where'd you get that Squier Mini decal?
Same place pistonrod8 got his from, Link Removed, but it's not listed in the shop, you need to write to him. Mine was with silver logo, pistonrod8 got gold. The guy at Atexx is called Bob Constantine.
 

well @pistonrod8 and @Rocket Queen, all I have to say is thank you for selling this bass after doing the lovely things to it! Played it last night, band mate held it for like 30 seconds and said “I’ll buy this from you right now, how much” and “aaaaah come on man, sell it to me”. Lol

You guys really did may it lovely and unique, also it plays Great! Truly. It will be well loved and well played!

what a blast!

Practice with the other band last night, the guitar player held it for 5 seconds and said “I want it”. Lol. These minis are great.

these guys play loud AF, mini sounded great in the mix!
