Re: A Tale of Five Basses
My bodies arrived today. I need to find all the parts, but here is most of them mocked up.

Re: A Tale of Five Basses
Thanks! It is kind of my take on Jim Root style on a Tele Bass. Tele edges, white, black hardware, black strat knobs, emg pickups... (These are Geezer PJ's.) I am waiting on a few projects now mostly on shielding paint.

Re: A Tale of Five Basses
Not super interesting, but I started shielding the control cavity.

Re: A Tale of Five Basses
That one was the first one I planed out. I am really excited to see how it comes together. Just need one more coat of shielding paint and it will be ready to assemble.... assuming I have all the parts like I think I do... LOL

Re: A Tale of Five Basses
FINISHED!! I really like it. Sad that I couldn't find 1/2" ferrules in black, but it is what it is. Sounds really nice. The J pickup thins it out a bit for a different sound. The P pickups are really sweet. Geezer EMG's are badass. Only remaining issue is the low E string likes to pop out if I am aggressive so I am getting some of those Fender hidden string tension thingys. Here are pictures!

Re: A Tale of Five Basses
i'm just wondering how long it's gonna be till you stick this scene from eva on one of your guitars.
actually, here's an idea. if you've ever got a build that takes ages...... stick the elevator scene on it.

Re: A Tale of Five Basses
What show is that? Is "Eva" short for "Evangelion" for you guys? I've never seen it, but the image that Sean posted makes me think of some of the trippier stuff from Aeon Flux, which is always a good thing in my book.

Re: A Tale of Five Basses
Evangelion uses the shorter word Eva to describe the giant "robots" the kids pilot. If you liked Flux, you would likely enjoy it. It is super dramatic and dark. It is one of those key animations like Akira and such to most Anime fans. Sean and I both are into it.
