Too cool for school!

Fantastic!

today I finished the electrics, filed the bridge , put strings on etc.

Unfortunately the decal is sitting a tad too low

I polished the knobs because they wont take the nickelplatting, it is a special process and I don,t know how to do that yet.



It Sounds great!! (on my peavy DB guitamp) and has a Looww action. I hope Saf is as happy as I am.

We're proud of you oigun. If I had the money, I'd ask you to make a guitar for me, if you were willin'

Sure I wanna build you a guitar, no problem. I'm not doin this for a living so... but maybe one day

That's looks really great, Eugen.

Now are you going to build one for yourself? Also, what is the finished weight? My '72 weighs in at a hefty 10.4 lbs and the one I built using Alder for the body weighed 8.2 lbs.

I want to build one for myself to probably a 6string first. The Longhorn will be the family bass. (and probably I make a Mobass too)
I used alder too it weight 10.1 lbs .

It sure turned out great...and the knobs are just fine the way they are after your treatment...proper vintage!

Amazing job !!! congratulations ! I like the colour a lot !

Try mid scale strings if you can.

Fantastic job, and thank you so much for sharing the build process with us!

Thanks guys! the color is hard to catch in a picture.
With artificial light the silver undercoat really make the blue pop:
