Warmoth padouk P-bass (wide) neck with pau ferro board, Stew-Mac (Ebay) body, there's some tasty swamp ash under that veneer - I chiseled a square down to the ash to screw down the also-Ebay'd Gotoh 206 bridge directly. DiMarzio pickup with series/parallel switching, to a big ol' 500K Ohmite vintage volume pot - it's the kind you'd find in an old ShoBud volume pedal, good for 1 millions turns as opposed to a CTS pot's pathetic little fifty thousand turns. It's a real straightforward tool, I was a demon bass pIayer 30 years ago but I know it's going to take some hard work to get my intonation and tone whipped into shape. I wanted the pickguard to be biologically-themed, here's a closeup also featuring the Knob of Doom:
Oh Grandmama! What a red neck you have!
Because the pickguard so resembles a tadpole hanging a left turn, the first obvious name would be:
:toothy10: Tadpole Louie :toothy10:
However, also in the running is:
:hello2: The 'MoebaCaster :hello2:
And the leader in the early bass-naming caucuses, and perhaps the inevitable winner:
:blob7: Spermy, the Imprecision Bass :blob7:
