I'm looking for jazz bass pickup screws, concentric pots, and concentric knobs. They're the only parts I need to finish this thing. If anyone has any please pm. Thanks.

na-na-nana-na I'll actually get to play it* :P The neck and body are excellent, superb work by everyone involved.

*if punk is feeling generous, he's very cautious with his one-off builds. I have to beg him to let me gig 'em.*

I plan to have three wired jaguar switches hidden under the Pickguard one turn on the jazz bass pup and the other two turning on each of the mustang pups (split) ill have them all switched to the on position. Ill be able to control volume and tone for each pickups when I'm using the guard without the jaguar plate and when I am using the jaguar plate I will just use the switches. Win win.

That's coming along really really nicely. As a few others have already observed, I think it looks much better as a bass than as a guitar. I expect to see a Fender Pawn Shop version on sale by next Easter...

This is sooooo good. I think I know what my eventual bass purchase will be.

Took the spring/foam piece off of a spare jaguar pickup I had and stuck it to the jazz bass pickup. Worked awesomely. Installed the mustang pickups to the guard.

What shade of red is that? You knocked it completely out of the park.
