  • 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.

  • 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
