Bass Guitar Kit J-Style : Great project bass

Got this as a fun project after seeing a friend have a try and was very impressed. For the money I was quite surprised at the quality of manufacturing although there were some little issues such as the pickups not quite fitting into their housings and being a screw or two short for fixing the scratch plate in place. However, these obstacles made the project a bit more fun to do and it didn't put me off getting another.

The sound quality isn't great but is perfectly acceptable given the cost, and the fact that most people will be seeing these basses as an opportunity to experiment with gives scope to having a bit more customising fun without the fear of spoiling a top quality instrument.

I've now tried the telecaster, my 14 year old son has made a decent job of a strat, and I'll be using these as a bass for a guitar club at my school. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
