    It is maddening that p bass style pickups don't have a standard size. I've never had a pickguard with the pickup opening actually fit the pickups I had.

      I think the j kit had the same problem , only slight though

    I'm guessing you "went ahead." Good job!

    I had that same frustration on my parts bass where Fender parts just barely don’t fit. I have no idea why you would make a Fender style bass and have it not match up to Fender spec, but I’m glad you were able to make it work!

      You often get swelling with wood. It's a bit of a nightmare.

    Thanks for joining me in part 1 of this beautiful monstrosity of a bass, y'all!
    EDIT: Check out part 2 with the finished bass and seeing what it sounds like!

    5:10 & 8:05 Your headstock design is gorgeous!! No shxt probably the only one I've seen looks more elegant than Fxndxr ones.

  • @nick-dm3if
    @nick-dm3if 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Only thing it needs is your logo on the headstock. I like the cheap paintjob and a wetsand i did that on my last one and when i sold it. the guy said it was extremely clean, he paid dearly lol 😆

  • @AmishParadice
    @AmishParadice 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I've been doing parts and kit guitars for a few years, and I've got to say for a first timer it looks like you did a really good job. I've always been warned to stay away from rattle cans (i.e. aerosol spray paint) but your finish really came out nice. Good job!

    That looks great, man, super cool seeing the process of the build so far and can’t wait to see how Part 2 is gonna go down

  • @dchauser4
    @dchauser4 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Looking good so far. I'm curious as to how the pick-ups sound that come with it. I keep eyeing doing a kit, but I also want one that's a double P config, but no one makes a pre-made version of that. So I may just have to buy a body blank and hit up a friend at a maker station to use their CNC to do it.

  • @bakkhertz
    @bakkhertz 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I also got the PBass kit and am doing shell pink! Great minds think alike!! Looks great man! Still have to paint mine yet and I'm going all out with nitrocellulose lacquer paint. I'm gonna go with the white pickguard. I've got a Custom shop P bass pickup to drop in there and I'm gonna swap out and relic the hardware at some point too

  • @DannyAdair
    @DannyAdair 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Looks cool! I apparently missed the part where it became a mess, because it looks pretty solid and sorted out to me.

    • @aaayjay
      @aaayjay 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      My thoughts exactly. I wish mine came out looking as good

  • @WattchomanBrandySavage
    @WattchomanBrandySavage 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice job Patrick, It looked like a fun way to kill a few hours! I like that Thomann saves people time (and frustration) by doing a lot of the pre-drilling. Not a lot of DIY kits drill the bridge holes and that alignment is just so important.

    How does it play?! That’s what really matters in my opinion.

  • @kirtfulcher6288
    @kirtfulcher6288 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Solo does a variety of kits for US/Canada but a bit more expensive. I guess if you are doing a bulk purchase from HB , adding this won't kill you on the shipping...

    Nice video even if title is misleading. There is a HUGE difference between building something v/s putting something together with parts already completed(kit). Not hating but come on man, you basically used leggos and then saying I painted the Mona Lisa

    please stop with the sponsored videos? there’s literally no way you stand to gain financially from a free $200 kit lmao

    • @gezi0752
      @gezi0752 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The kit is 89$, also why does it matter if it’s sponsored because it didn’t affect the video at all

    • @USSLIBERTYREMEMBERER
      @USSLIBERTYREMEMBERER 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Gezi 0 Because I’d like to know whether the kit is good or not? If you believe that him saying the content of the video isnt affected by the sponsorship just because he said so then i have a bridge to sell you

    • @gezi0752
      @gezi0752 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@USSLIBERTYREMEMBERER he didn’t even review it..? The whole point of this video is him just building it, we don’t even know how it sounds. By the way, he has other sponsored videos where he criticizes the product. He’s not paid extra money to just say good things, the basses are usually just sent to him so the company can get more exposure from reviews on TH-cam
