What do I need to think about if I want to strip a guitar back to it's natural wood?
I've got this Fame bass that I bought years and years ago. I hate the EMG pickups in it. I don't really like the colour of the bass anymore. It cost me £700+ which was a pretty stupid buy to be honest. It's not a brand name anyone cares about even though it's made in the Mayones factory.
So I thought maybe I could do something interesting with it. I do like the acoustic sound of the bass, it's quite snappy and almost Warwick-y feeling to play. So I'm thinking ... make a project out of it.
I think there might be some nice wood under all that junk on top! But how successful am I going to be if I start trying to sand it down and do something with it?
The other thing is, it is routed for EMG DC35 cavity pickups. Which is a bit crap. But I'll probably stick with that cavity size and just get some nice passive pickups to fit it.
