Members Optimus Prime Posted November 28, 2007 Members Share Posted November 28, 2007 It's a 1-piece swamp ash body with a clear gloss finish. I just called the place I was going to have it put together at, the repair guy isn't there today but will be there tomorrow. About how much should it cost to have him take the stuff off the old one and put it on the new one? The body is sick. I didn't realize how light it would be. The electronics and bridge weigh that {censored} down. I wish I had a better camera. My Dunlop wah and DC Brick will be here Monday. Hopefully by then I'll have the bass put together. Well, I'm off to look at it some more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members guitargod0dmw Posted November 28, 2007 Members Share Posted November 28, 2007 Are you making an opposite bass to that black one? Well...sorta...just with a natural body instead of white. Nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members sludgebass69 Posted November 28, 2007 Members Share Posted November 28, 2007 Man up and assemble that {censored} yourself! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Optimus Prime Posted November 28, 2007 Author Members Share Posted November 28, 2007 Man up and assemble that {censored} yourself! I would, but I don't want to screw up with over $1300 on the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sludgebass69 Posted November 28, 2007 Members Share Posted November 28, 2007 I would, but I don't want to screw up with over $1300 on the line. Wimp!.... All you need is patience (and the right tools and know-how) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the holes are drilled...it's basically plug & play. Do some research and be confident in your abilities! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Optimus Prime Posted November 28, 2007 Author Members Share Posted November 28, 2007 Wimp!.... All you need is patience (and the right tools and know-how) I know I could. All I'd need is a screwdriver. But it's not worth the risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members justinbass Posted November 28, 2007 Members Share Posted November 28, 2007 I am 95% supporting this. I'd have gotten a rear-rout, skipped the pickguard and maybe gone with a black Bad ass. Reguardless, that is going to be one hot bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roguetitan Posted November 28, 2007 Members Share Posted November 28, 2007 so what are you going to do with the other body? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Optimus Prime Posted November 28, 2007 Author Members Share Posted November 28, 2007 I don't really like blocks. That's why I didn't buy the '75 reissue (and it's cheaper this way). That just a clear coat or like a vintage tint? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
