i posted a picture of this a while back, but rather than add to that post I just started a new one. I gave itto my son to work on, and he did a good job of sandiing the body.
It was a Warmoth body that somebody put on the local craigslist.
Here’s what I bought so far for it.
Mighty Mite maple P Bass neck with rosewood fretboard.
Fender bass tuning machines.
EMC “Geezer” P-J pickup set. Includes wiring and pots and jack.
Hipshot D Type bass bridge, matching tailpiece on the way.
Here’s a few pictures.

The neck has one of those sloping heels o the body, so I was really careful shortening the screws to attach it with.
I need to order some knobs and strings. And I need to decide on the location of the jack? I may add another hole for the tone pot, and use the one down at the end for the output jack?
