Doc, i'm pretty sure that you've already seen this photo of my Vox Constellation, but it'll be a good reference photo for you to refer too as you proceed with your project.

I wish you lived in Dallas, I'd keep you busy with a few projects! If you ever start taking on some small repairs and such please let me know. As big as DFW is it is a struggle to get a bass worked on.

Doh! You're right. And now I'm forced to dredge up my sordid past and reference a post that contains a proper pic for that caption. See what you've gone and made me do?

I guess its ok. It appears to be, afterall, just a wholesome teambuilding event - in the spirit of good certified public accounting.

Words can't express how much I love that Constellation! Always thought that was one of the coolest looking basses, and I like those skinny Vox necks. Someday maybe...

So that makes me wonder- Doc, are you planning any kooky Vox-inspiried on-board electronic goodies? G-tuner? distortion? maybe something a little more mellow...

That's my goal, in a few years! Right now, work, family and hobby time is colliding constantly! Eventually, I will be doing work for others, but it's not the right time now.

Well, I probably won't do anything kooky, but I will use 2 of the white Phantom humbuckers in it. I'm also debating with myself on the bridge. With that thin neck, it's gonna take some doing to get one to fit correctly. Might go for an old vintage one off eBay to make my life easier.
