Bass Guitar Kit J-Style : Incredible bang for the buck.

I had fun building this. The final product is an extremely playable bass that has only needed minor adjustments to get close to how I like my basses to be. The pickups are surprisingly good and fit well in a mix (although I think I will end up replacing them). My only complaint, and it's something to be expected when you're building something like this, is that some of the predrilled holes for the head stock were not deep enough to accommodate the screws. However, they were good enough for rock and roll and I've had no issues at all.

I did not sand and fill the holes with wood filler, which is usually what you should do with a piece of wood like this. Just a heads up for something to do before staining. The 3 pieces for the body were not that different in color and, although you can see the difference between the pieces, it doesn't impact the final product.

If you're looking for a bass and also want a project, I would highly recommend this. Not my favorite bass, but my favorite is several multiples in cost more expensive.
