Wow. We had 12 and that was more than normal.
Why did you do this? I just sold 5 basses, bought the reissue G3 and still have enough to buy that. Or save. Or buy.

Had a brainwave for a new Brooks hybrid bass.
I have no idea if this has been done before, but it seems to make perfect sense to me

Oh wow!!! I bet if you made a lefty version of this, it would get @BklynKen attention.

Maybe a reverse headstock - like an original reverse 'bird, just for that extra bit of sparkly allure?

I put one in my "hippie " Precision build. I really love the sound, they hit the nail on the head and the pole piece spacing is spot on for Fender. If you're inclined go to my Facebook page and scroll down there are some recent gig videos of the bass. Search Scott Dasson, there's only one

I'd replace the rhythm circuit (bass side plate), to house a single switch putting the pickups in parallel/series.
Maybe Dave, the mad chemist can whip up some Mental Soap for you!Yikes, that’s not what I thought it was. I really need to get my mind out of the gutter.

I had a JagBird in the planning stages for a while but gave up because I couldn’t source a full jag wiring harness without actually buying a used Jag. Wasn’t able to find a wiring schematic either with adequate info to build my own, so I gave up.Had a brainwave for a new Brooks hybrid bass.

Ended up going the Telecaster route instead - current build called ThunderCaster. Should be ready to go to the finisher next week.
If you find a source for a Jag bass wiring harness with all the switches and plates and pots and knobs let me know.

Wow!! We had around 50 kids, which is probably double from the previous year.
But how many were dressed like livestock?
