  1. Just a quick update.

    Ordered a Schaller roller bridge

    spent 3 hours yesterday trying to find the paint that i want. found it and have to order it.

    ordered my Q-tuners, four wire, and still looking at/for different options on how to run them.

    i do have to say that Erno at Q-tuners, exceptional customer service. emailed him asking a few questions about the pickups and it was maybe close to 10 or 11 pm where they are located if not later, yet i still recieved a response about 30 min after i sent.

    other than that, its still waiting for parts. did a little more sanding, and should be ready for prime and paint in the next few days.

  2. thanks,

    and dave, im waiting until i get the neck in, should hopefully be here this weekend, to get it mocked up and figure the placement for the bridge.

    any advice as to where i can find a place to tell me how far the bridge should be from the nut?

    thats the only thing im missing.

    and i love having money, but i love guitars and bass just the same, its a constant battle between good and evil. lol.

  3. Came across this bass:

    liked the body, but couldnt find any information about the company other than it was a japanese company called cipher, distributed in the US under the name Intermark. and its around 1960's era.

    thats the only before pic i have, i took everything off, the neck was wasted, and the electronics beyond repair.

    so this is how it sits right now:

    filling in the holes and deep scars, still have to sand down the sides.

    bought a used ibanez neck:

    Plans are:

    for the time being im going to replace the inlays with black dots,

    12th and 24th fret will have a red bar inlay.

    eventually it will be a clean (inlay free) bloodwood fretboard

    Carbon fiber pickguard

    Q-tuners humbucker pickups

    Schaller roller bridge

    and finally a Burnt orange finish.

    I believe thats all. for now
