Celebrity Bass Project, Sans Neck

Postby LoveyX » Sat Feb 22, 2014 11:01 pm

Hi, haven't posted for a while, but have been faithfully reading. I noticed while searching on ebay one of my neighbors a Mr. Bruce Diamond of Diamond Strings has a customized bass body he tastefully modded to a one pickup configuration for sale. So I decided to pay a visit to Bruce, a many times over Mosrite owner and well known local musician and luthier. Here's a link to the ad if you have time to take a look. http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/271404014319?lpid=82&item=271404014319&lgeo=1&vectorid=229466 So my questions to The Mosrite Forum are; does this look like a viable project for a hobbyist luthier? does the price seem reasonable? Does anyone have a spare 30 1/2" scale bass neck and/or bridge for a reasonable price? mind you since I also play bass this would be a player for sure if I can get it together. Thanks in advance.

For that price, you could most likely find an unmolested complete Celeb on ebay that needs no work at all if you are patient.

Do you have a hollow body bass you want to get rid of?
(preferably the longer scale) ;)
