Is he going to paint it? Active electronics or passive? at the moment he is just oiling it. with hardoil the grain just pops out, wowey..I did that on my guitars , too, the playing is great. electronics, he has some really expensive Delanos I think, on his other basses he has some very complicated ...

Yeah, well, you know, that's just like, your opinion man. 5-string jazz necks are typically pretty wide and sorta goofy looking, I'd say the body is a standard size but the proportions do look a little off for some reason? dunno, exactly, yeah it looks a bit offset, thats why I like it.. fits actua...

my brother is a bassist and loves building basses, too. He now ordered a really nice body and neck from Warmoth. neck wood is dubinga, ebony fretboard, he says slapping is great on it and it plays like butter with this special Warmoth neck profile. I think, it looks fantastic. 8) just wanted to shar...

I am leaning towards a top load. I have used and am very happy with this one on two of my guitars. http://www.guitarfetish.com/Cutaway-Wilkinson-Compensated-Tele-Bridge-Brass-Saddles-Gloss-Black_p_1806.html But this is fully adjustable as far as intonation and cheap. Worried about quality of materi...

great work! looks very nice..would be even more badass with ebony fretboard for sure..

I´d just swap the tone pot/knob with the toggle..
the electronics seems a bit cheap..

project wanted, body , neck, parts..

Seems like Diamond was an Australiasian thing, lots of cheapo Diamonds over the ditch here aswell. Usually they're bolt-neck pieces of shit, very similar to hondos of that era. This one actually looks nice, score! no, i didnt mean the ARIA Diamond from the 70ies..and Hondos I already had some.. Thi...

hm, I wonder if the OP does respond because the thread is quite old..
I would buy a Junior DC from exactly the same brand Diamond Beat Master, and really want to know if your Junior has this intonation problems probably from the neck..

Here is what I am working on currently. Warmouth body, Jagmaster neck, Duo-Sonic bridge, currently has a Carvin pickup but will have a Dmz fast track 2. http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/7092/419095011.jpg Uploaded with ImageShack.us cool cool finish..true oil? hm, Warmoth body..

This thing has been done for months now, but I've been too lazy to take good pics and post them. It's apart right now for some neck work, but here's a teaser for yall. http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b226/rlm2112/IMG_0388.jpg http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b226/rlm2112/IMG_0389.jpg cooool cat ...

Here my redone Gordon Smith Gypsy2 from the 80ies..it had a Kahler trem, which was removed and filled, then a Schaller Badass installed. Honduran mahagony, fretboard looks like brazilian rosewood.. http://img546.imageshack.us/img546/3816/bild0939.jpg the other one is a Special DC built from a kit ( ...

says its a lollar supro. String-through pickups such as the Supro/Valco/National pickups are legends among the realm of guitar pickups. Looking like humbuckers yet in essence are single-coil in design have that much sought-after unique growl. An example of a guitar that had this distinction is the ...

There was not a single attractive guitar in this thread. :( Hmm. I see. Well, let's gauge your idea of attractive versus mine. I think that this is the most attractive guitar. http://wadeaminute.ca/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/P1010006.jpg What do you think of that one? Interesting, and differen...
