Amazing, that looks great!

Another cool one, meticulously executed. Seems like a very reasonable price.

So beautiful that I start looking at my Bach Entwhistle T-bird, wondering how it would look with a Tele head, instead of the P-bass head...

Wait a sec, it doesn't sound muddy. Aren't those pickups wound to around 30k? How'd you get them to be so clear? Love the bass too btw.

Yes, supposedly they're 30k.
Artec makes some fine pickups.
Maybe the choice of wood and the bolt-on maple neck help a little too.
Ever since I used the Artec Mudbucker as a bridge pickup in the first bass I ever built, I know they work great.
