Hey, had these for a while.
Guitar is Mint, but the Bass was a real mess.
Finally finished a total rebuild on the Bass, very happy with how she turned out :D & thought I'd post a coupla pics of em together.
I'll do a pic set and story on the Bass in the restorations section when I get a moment.
Cheers.

Now Trevor, didn't your mother ever tell you that it's rude to show off :P
I can see that your Sunday arvo was well spent after our chat.
They look great, all you need now is the PE and you will have the full set :wink: .

Top job :love:

Cheers Don, Yep 8 in the set of BnG Only 6 to go.
I think a BnG set would be the perfect compliment for your VA set Don. :D

Cheers Guys,
Thanks for the positive comments, :D
I'll definately do a write up in the resto threads.
You will be quite shocked at her original condition.

Trevor - just a quick question. Is this CSB BnG a narrow or wide spacing? Just trying to figure out what pickup it was fitted with and whether that pickup model came in more than one spacing size....
