AB/Y pedal, so I can go through the amp and the DAI at the same time, cos for £20, why not… :joy:

And these, for £35 cheap amazon things (for home practice at least), are actually decent :sweat_smile:

That is a beautiful bass! What would be the resale value for something like this? Of course only if you’re willing sell. Lol . Just kidding!

This build is a brilliant idea @Wombat-metal.
I want one!!!
You stained the body yourself and bought the neck?

Joe’s basses go from between $580-$700, this is on the higher end because of the neck

I wish. Joe the luthier stained the body. Like @EddieJones said, it’s cheaper for Joe to do it than buy the parts yourself. Take the pickup, I see all the builds including the Cohnway use them (Duncan Quarter Pounder). I asked how much to add it in? Joe said $45

I priced it out using the same parts and don’t come close to Joe’s price. Must be a labor of love

I came across an ‘65 Ampeg B15N in the wild today (I am up in Rochester, NY).
It took all I had to leave WITHOUT it.
That said, I am here until Thursday.
What stopped me is I have zero room for it, they are a lot bigger than I thought.

Haha good luck with that, from now on you will be thinking till Thursday how you could make it work :laughing:

I just gassed over a used Mono case again. Now I got two :sweat_smile:
