Thought y'all might get a kick outta this. I'm building a parts Fenderbird with a Rosser body and a Warmoth wenge/ebony fretless neck. Had some stickers made for the headstock and case... View attachment 4875860

Nice, I do hope you'll share some pictures with us - build shots are welcome too!

I certainly will. Still waiting on parts.
Rosser mahogany body
Warmoth wenge P bass neck with ebony fretless board..
Will be just finished in Truoil.
Hipshot Kickass bridge all black hardware
Seymour Duncan Proactive Jazz bass pickups front and rear. (I know, I know, purists will hate but they are my old reliable go tos on my builds that I gig with. I get my sound from em)

Should be a decent player is my guess. I'll keep y'all posted.

ughh this video made me unsubscribe…

9 minutes in he finally starts talking about the bass. Then the review is like trying to follow a chihuahua on crack…

LOL - I thought it was just me. But by the end of the video I wanted to take his slap lessons so I could slap him!

Another cab question. Another local option is the Trace Elliot 2103h. Any opinions on that brand.

Wow, she's great. If they only made long scale SG basses. I love the body style.

I love older Trace stuff. Very good stuff IMO.

Negotiations are ongoing. Likely $150-ish. Still a good deal. Seeing closer to $300 elsewhere.

A buddy of mine that's a graphic artist whipped it out for me in a matter seconds. I told my idea and sent him the loga and had a PNG file in moments.

Good friend to have!

Epi makes (or made one) with a set neck.
