This is how to build your custom dream bass guitar Step 1) start with this kit If you haven't watched it yet, check out my review of this shockingly good diy bass kit you can get on eBay. Best advice I can give you about building your dream bass? Start with a kit like this. Step 2) fix the problems with your kit If you watched my p bass kit review you'll remember my two gripes with the kit were that it didn't have a hole for the bridge ground connect, and the pickup was not aligned properly. Step 3) rout the body for additional pickups For this bass I'm adding a music man style pickup, and a vintage style mini humbucker like you'd find in the neck position of a rickenbacker, or a hofner style bass. To rout the body for additional pickup cavities, I just traced the spots where I wanted the pickups, and used a dremel tool with the 565 multi purpose cutting kit Next, drill a hole for the bridge ground connect. My kit didn't have one, and most drill bits won't be long enough for you to drill all the way thru from one side, so I figured out how to do it myself by drilling at the hole from both sides. Step 4) make your custom pickguard This is necessary since I've added pickups, and changed the placement of the original p pickup. To do this, Trace your kit pickguard onto the 1/8" birch plywood, and carefully measure where your new pickup placement is. Then cut it out with a jig saw or scroll saw. If your saw allows it, use a 45 degree angle around the perimeter. Okay step 5) Add 45 degree support screws for neck and body. Again, like the strat I built last time, this will help seat the neck tighter into the neck cavity providing as much surface contact as possible with the neck and body. Step 6) fix up the neck Shape the headstock to the custom shape of your choice, then level and crown the frets. Step 7) sand the neck and body, apply the finish of your choice, and take the time to really "make it yours" this is what will make your build really stand out from factory guitars. Step 8) properly shield your pickguard and pickup cavities. Trace and cut out pieces of foil and spray a light amount of adhesive on one side. Then stick it down on the back of the pickguard. Do the same for your pickup cavities, ensuring that all the foil connects together, and you make a small connection where the body cavity shielding comes up to touch the pickguard shield. Step 9) wire up your electronics. For my 3 pickups, I just wired it like a jazz bass, so each pickup has an independent volume control. Also, I ditched the tone knob because I never use it, I just leave it wide open all the time anyway, so why bother? Step 10) assemble your dream bass.
