hello to you all. i've been roaming this forum for months, now i post...
i'm looking to build a semi-hollow fretless 5 string bass. mostl ikely 35" scale to keep the B tight. i was thinking of using the active 3 band preamp off of my 4 string ibanez ergodyne, and adding a 3 way switch to it(switch between series, parallel? the preamp has a master volume, pickup blend, bass, mid, treble). i was always thinking of using 2 soarbar pickups also.
and as i said before, i'de liek it to be semi hollow. i plan to make it neck through, with hollow sides, and cutting out cavities for the electronics.
any advice? i have no clue how to begin building it. though i am working up a desing on autocad2005...
