Haha, oops, better mega than mono!
You'll have to post a mini review or some soundclips when you get it. There is no pedal I've got more GAS for, even if I get the name wrong now and then.
I've got a custom Meathead Dark clone on the way next week... All UK/ axial components. Looking forward to that!!!

That is SO awesome.
Did you have to modify the neck pocket or neck?

Are there lines on the finish now or is that a reflection?

I did have to sand about 1/16th of an inch off of the neck, but only from the base of the neck to the 24th fret. Also, you have to drill 2 more holes in the headstock and swap out the nut because it's a bass neck.
File the nut to fit the strings and put on your tuners and you are pretty much set.
It only took a couple of hours and the only tools I needed were a Dremmel, a drill, and a screwdriver.

Reflection, it's
Lake Placid Blue Agave which looks awesome but is really hard to photograph.

Thanks goes to you!
It's a fairly easy project but I never would have known it was possible without seeing yours first.

Awesome, dude
I'd really like to do that eventually. I bet that thing rules with fuzz.

Yeah once I saw how easy those parts would go together I thought... "people need to know"
The only other "painless way to do this would be to get a SS bass [like a bronco] and just change the bridge and add two tuners.. the only prod with that is you would have to rout for more pickups...
