Dude you rock. Take it from an 80s rocker bass player from the age of 15 and now 57 now p bass has always been my girlfriend and im always look for that one that will be my wife...i guess thay all are nice job on your bass i approve. Bass player for 40 yrs
Very rock and roll mate! I've got my hands on an old Made in Japan Hondo P Bass in red, and think I'll do the shell pink overtop and relic like you have. Thanks for the inspiration!
Good try ! I am currently working on this song ! I don’t have the skills to play it as Joe so I simplify some parts and make my own impro so I keep time and get clear notes. Cheers !
It is my own custom built fender jazz bass, inspired by geddy lee's. I will be making a video documenting it in the future, sub to see it when it comes out!
I love how much character the video itself has. The zooms on your fretting hand, stopping to pose for the thumbnail in the middle of it, the gamecube in the background, and the steps to success on the whiteboard. Is your jazz bass the one with the stacked knobs? I always thought that configuration was neat
Ah, thanks man. Appreciate the kind words :^) Yeah, my jazz bass has stacked knobs, 62 style. Custom built it myself. Will be making a video about it in the near future
Very cool of EMG to take care of you wanting a cream cover I’m a sucker for white covers! Especially on black this looks so cool! I like how you went the extra mile to put the Jack in the plate, very cool!
I would say no issues imo. Some people may prefer the potz to stick out farther from the wood, have more space to screw on, but it has never proven to be an issue, never fallen out or become unscrewed, so it's a non issue.
Sunburst is my favorite color on guitars......I want to hate this, but it's sooo good. I love the way this build turned out bro. Awesome job and thanks for sharing!
Nice tone dude great job keep it up I just covered Can’t Stop on my channel Check it out if you want Tell me what you think ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sS1LSNTX1lg.htmlsi=p-eM3RqPhzJWQmkt
Holly shit, I made my PM bass 2 weeks ago. Parts Pbass i equipped with musicman type of pickup. My wood cuts are little nicer. I used chisel and for pick-guard mini drill saw.
you really did a dirty job incorrectly, it's poorly done,,, not to mention the pickguard cut like that....and what did you do the digging in the body with? with a bottle corkscrew?? come on... terrible job... next time go to a luthier, spend some money and get a professional job done well
For anyone wanting to route it with a drill: use Forstner bits. Dont drill full depth at once; use multiple passes of shallow plunges to keep from binding the bit and losing control
How do you expect to get any energy transfer through totally the wrong sized tuners? Not only is the shaft size way too small, you've had to stack the lock nut on top of the original bushings and there is almost no footprint of the tuner body in mechanical contact with the headstock. Big downgrade in performance. If you really wanted to fit those tuners, you need to dowel the original holes and redrill to the correct diameter.
This is true, the tuners are kinda scuffed. They aren't the proper size, and the old bushings are there to hold in place. If I were to make this bass again, I would do the proper research to get the right sized tuners for the holes. However, in practice, this bass plays fine and holds tune better than the stock squier tuners. Never had any issues with them.
