I like the fact that you are willing to take the time to experiment with parts and pieces.... same with Matt, and others on this forum. It's inspired me to take my $20 Cort bass body, and bolt on the fretless neck I've recently purchased from chrispurchase from "Down Under".... can't wait to bolt together my parts and pieces, and see if my Franken-fretless was worth the money, time, and effort!

Although any time spent with basses, parts and pieces is Always worth the time and effort! :ugeek:

Haha thanks! I'm looking forward to your pictures and lessons learned while assembling :-)
It is a fun thing to do, and (at least to me) it is very satisfying to make or improve a bass with quality parts!
Cheers,
Ken
