Highlander:
How'd she result in a refurb job, Carlo...?

4stringer77:
Those NR basses look great in Frost Blue. Good to see a bass not go to waste.

tore00:
Are 5 strings thunder buckers wider than 4 strings?

BTL:
Beautiful work, as always!

No, they have a wide magnetic field due to the metal case and magnet extensions on the coils.

I'm doing this build with Aguilar 35 series pickups which are also spec'd for 'narrow' Fivers.  It also gets an Aguilar 18v Preamp  We'll see how it turns out.



Here's a northern ash JAE42 body with red "dog hair" finish.

First, black paint.



Then clear lacquer washcoat and drywall compound rubbed into the grain



Lacquer, red rub, lacquer, red rub, lacquer.
