This took awhile to finish up, esp. compared to Joe's fine work but here's my BaCHbird as a little photo essay. It actually was a fairly simple project, I'm pretty happy with the results.
Of course the traditional "owners" shot
Some of the parts, new knobs and a Lull pickup in a '76 Bird case.
Here's the pickup and a wood block that I shaped to fit the cavity.
And after the pickup was installed and tested.
And some closer shots after all the parts were put back on it, the pickguard is pearliod and was cut by Paul Chandler, Mike Lull did the cutout for the pickup.
The truss rod cover is a stainless steel one I picked up on ebay, interestingly they sell for less than a plastic Gibson one....I also airbrushed the headstock with black lacquer.
And the finished bass, yes that's my bathroom
It's Winter here and the basses don't go outside for any reason so this had to do!
It goes to it's first show on the 23rd along with the Greco Thunderbird II
