WOW... o-O all of that for just a bass..
no wonder it's so expensive

how much would it cost me if you did a bass of those, but just the wooden parts and ship it? i'd install the electronics myself. I live in portugal
Thanks!
PS: those basses are wonderful
see all

amazing, but i have 2 questions: 1° why putting frets and then glueing the neck? i think that it might affect them as clamps are needed to fix the set-neck.(even if frets are leveled after.. but i dont know)
2° the neck is cut with a saw by "free hand" on both sides. how do you regulate straightness?
thanks!

@wnpikoso
1) Fretting after glueing makes it more difficult to clean the side of the fingerboard and increases risk of damaging the top.
2) That's only rough work, I rout the sides after that.

may i ask what kind of dye you use? i can jsut find the water based stuff, and that is a bit thin in my opinioin, especially if you want to do a natural fake binding like on a PRS.
Thanks

@goodyear2602 It's a thinner-based stain. It has a stronger colour than waterbased dyes. I mix the colours myself.
