Ooh :? :w00t: :? That is DAMN classy. The body color/stain and pickguard are classic, and the pickup covers and vibrato are new school and cool. Perfect blending of old and new in my opinion!!

Thanks! The knobs are pretty cool. They are from Knobhead. Sort of a dark amber fade color. I got the aluminum covers off of Etsy. Pickups are Lambertones Ristrettos.

Well, it's on my bed and not on my workbench yet, but I've just received the new neck for my old bass ! It looks like it will fit, and it exactly what I wanted : the same thing, but thinner everywhere.

Then the current neck will go back to the original body, which has sat unused in my parent's attic for the last ten years, and one bass will become two !
