i am new to the bass and playing.. and trying to replace the electronics on a bass was unthinkable... but i figured it out and busted out my first custom instullation.. on any instrument!!!!!

 

i upgraded my OLP MM2 with a Nordstrand MM2.4 pickup, Bartolini NTMB - 3 Band Preamp, and a custom pickguard.. its killer. the preamp is awsome and the pickup growls... so much of an improvement. i can;t even compair them.. start to finsh took like 3 hours to route/drill/chisle out the wood, paint it black and install the switches and wire and tape and hook it all up and screw down.. this bass can now hang with the $1000 ones and i got just 4 in it.. i would put it up against a stingray. im pleased,.

only thing i lack is a thumb rest, in the future... but for now its killer. m/

 

i gotta give props to the peeps at www.bestbassgear.com they were so help full with the instulation of the preamp, through email tney answered all my Q's promply. killer customer service.

 

oh well i'm just pleased so much i had to share... i have a deep respect for anyone who makes their own custom bass. ok thats enough... m/ :):D:):cool:
