Well, after pestering you all like hell, I have finally completed my project bass which I have called 'Deadpool'.
You will see why when you see it.
Basically the only original parts left are the wiring and pickups (which I will upgrade on pay day), neck and the body.
A complete strip down and re-paint, new bridge, pickguard, tuning pegs, string tree, replace a broken neck nut and complete set up. The action is a bit high but Im going to wait for the new strings to settle before I play with neck profile and string height.
Anyway, here is a link to my photobucket album. I doubt the pics are in order, but il let you lot work that bit out.
I just want to say a massive thanks to everyone who has contributed advice and guidance, especially in relation to my wiring problem.
Its not perfect, not by a long shot, but for my first effort, I am over the moon....all i have to do now is concentrate on learning to play!
I am so made up I found this site.
Perhaps the next project will be an all new build!!!
Thanks
Russ

But managed to get there, wading through the torrent of ads and pop-ups - and glad I did. Nice bass
