What sort of work still needs doing?
I am tempted to try a Stingray but put some sort of wacky humbucker in and see what happens - keep it passive but go for a higher output so it doesn't need the Preamp. Maybe even a mudbucker style. Hmmm...

Well having a browse around, I could do one with the Kent Armstrong pickup, which can run passive only, with a series/parallel switch to get some tonal variation.
I will have a think today and get and get back to you. Most tempting. Might do a bright lurid green stain on it and go for the proper MM vibe.. *thinks*
TBH, I am more interested in the Squigglecaster in the guitar clearance thread.
On the body for the 5-string, you've got a little slot for access to the truss rod. But not on any of the other bodies.
Why is that?
(I suspect that is some of the work required)

Firstly because I thought it might be helpful for easier truss rod tweakery.
Secondly because I'm not using a full scratchplate, the top edge of the end of the truss rod is visible above the top of the body. So, I thought maybe I'd turn it into a feature with a cut-out.

VERY tempted. How much are we looking at? I really enjoyed building my last partscaster & need a new project.
... Trots off to ebay to research parts prices...
dammit.
@GSPBASSES ?
The rest is just some numbers.
She said, "ooo, nice! How much?"
"Er, I Er, not sure Er.."
Poor.
Next time, try ...
"Wow - have you just had your hair done", or
"You've lost weight again, haven't you", or
"I thought we'd go to XXX (enter name of favourite pub/restaurant) tonight", or
(I've got more if you need them. Though they've never worked for me, so no guarantees).
My tactics are:
- Agreed to drive her and a dog to a rescue tomorrow morning
- Put a new fence up today
- Bought her a new coat last weekend so she has a warm coat for the trip to Germany to go to the market with her mate (which I also paid for)
She has acquiesced on the price and said "that's nice dear, it will keep you from getting under my feet"
Which is clearly a man-win as she sees it as a positive thing...
