Just pimped up my Rick with a new custom pickguard and headstock plate.

That is stellar!

Did you get that from this guy?

I am designing a bass from scratch, was curious how he was to work with.

Thanks!!

That’s the guy - I saw his FB page and got in touch . We discussed the design over FB, agreed on a template and he built it. It took a couple of weeks but I asked him to take his time . Very impressed by the result!

Very nice, @Ed . . . is that the Walnut model?

Looks a bit darker than their Mapleglo

Cheers
Joe

Hah! No it’s the mapleglo - just terrible lighting I was waiting for some decent daylight to get a pic but it’s going to be raining all week at this rate

Jazzbass19 · May 2, 2021, 6:36pm

OK, got it . . .

One is Harley Benton, the other is a Kala?
Black vs White strings?
Body contours?
One has a gig bag, the other does not?

He does some awesome work.
Love that Ace of Spades in it.
Yours is very cool.
How expensive is he?

Lefty vs. righty

Good eye.

But its kind of like playing pool, if I just wait for you to get all your balls off the table, then I can run the rest of the game.
I just got the obvious ones out of the way for you. LOL

No, you had the better eye.

Oh yeah some of the designs on his website are amazing. There’s one of them with a whole load of gear wheels and stuff. The prices vary depending the job but the prices for the Rick ( pickguard, headstock and thumbrest) range from about 250 euros. But it depends on the material etc…
