Questions & Answers
The frets were crowned and leveled on mine. In terms of nut slots, they have been cut, but depending on how you set up/play, you might want to cut them deeper. It might help if you read this.
Thank you for your question, I'm happy to answer it. Despite the pickups already being attached to the main pickguard, we recommend that you solder the wire that goes underneath the bridge very carefully to maximize contact. Thanks for the help!

It's a lot of fun My most time consuming part of the project was finishing the wood. I am very pleased with the outcome. The game is very playable, but a bit neck-breaking Since the Phoenix wood (Paulownia) of the body is quite porous and therefore lightweight, it is not so heavy. The only other issue I have is that one of the volume knobs has to be pushed all the way up for two of the strings to be audible.
My dad and I were both surprised with this gift for Father's Day and his birthday! I had such a great time with my dad!.
A great project with a low price tag.
His guitar was a hit with my grandson, and he has great plans for a guitar.
Never before had I done anything like this, and was at a loss as to what to do. Having played armature bass guitar for a few decades, I am familiar with the instrument. I typically perform my own set-ups and maintenance on these instruments. The idea was too far out of my comfort zone. As far as I know, I've never done any kind of wood finishing. As a result of watching YouTube videos and reading blogs on the subject, I decided to use a grain filler to highlight the grain and then finish it with a purple translucent stain and tung oil. My next step was to wet sand, polish with compound, and wax it. I was very pleased with the result! In order to care for the neck, I used boiled linseed oil and a As well as cleaning up the headstock, I rounded a few of the corners. The pickups were crap, and the strings (as expected) were crap, so I found some used pickups from a large mass-auction site, and it's working again! A booming bass is in the air! It just so happened that I had a black pick guard and pickup and bridge covers from another bass laying around. Likewise, it has the standard bridge of Fender. bolt pattern was essentially the same as that of a standard fender. Here are a few examples of before-and-after shots. That's right, I assembled and then disassembled the whole thing. In total, it took about a month to complete the project.
