Finally! NBD; Completed Stingray 5 build

Legionreturns

I started this project nearly a year ago but it got shoved on the back burner due to crazy busy work and personal stuff. 

Body and neck by @GSPBASSES ; and I did the staining and finishing myself. 

Had to enlist a bit of help to get the electrics right, but with the SD pickup and some nifty wiring I've got a really nice array of sounds. The 3 way switch does Series, parallel or single coil, plus I have the 3 band eq. 

The volume pot is a push pull, and if pulled, bypasses the active circuit. Essentially if my battery dies it'll still work, as will the 3 way toggle. 

Super happy right now, can't wait to plug it in to something loud!

That looks great. Nice wood on neck and body. Really like the finish you've applied, looks fantastic.

Nice!

The maple on that neck looks gorgeous! Happy new bass day buddy, probably time to book yourself a rehearsal room with a loud bass amp.

Nice! Get a bit carried away with the number of strings did we? It's got one too many!

By jingo, that looks fantastic! Love the natural finish - shows off that lovely grain and it looks very tactile. Wonderful job.

I thought that big fat one was just a thumb rest?!
