Custom T Bass II

[fretless]

and FIN , I'll build it up tomorrow but we must have had perfect drying weather as this thing is ready to rock . Did a light wet sand and polish and it feels nice,

I have to run out today and try and find a pot , only thing I see is GC sells a EVH pot that should work but which knob do you like . Heavy knurled P bass style or Aluminum Sadowsky style ?

 

[Dolando]

Sadowsky all the way.

I just made the hardest decision of the whole build.. what to do about the strap buttons ? I put it in the usual place and yup it has some dive but it's not bad , it stops at about a level point so I broke out a nice suede strap and shes all good . I can live with it , strapped low it's a rocker and comfortable . Not many options with these . Also the body is very light , as is the neck with Gotoh resolites .

and yup it has some dive but it's not bad ,

Great that it works out so well..! The G&L ASAT that I used to own was so terrible, that I could not stand the neck dive and sold it again. Do you use light weight tuners? I suppose that helps quite a lot..!

Regarding the knobs: I don't really think that any of those two options look right for this beautiful bass. If I should choose one it would be the knurled P bass style.

The bass looks amazing  :kewlpics:

I just popped on several knobs and a Charvel brass knob looked nice too
