OOooooo fucking A Boris-ness!

DAMN!

Squier Bronco bass that I scored for $30 on Craigslist last week. It came without any strap buttons or knobs, but it was easy enough to get a couple of strap buttons (and fill and redrill the stripped holes) and the knobs came off an old broken tubescreamer I have lying around. I hadn't owned a bass for about a dozen years prior to this and I'm really enjoying it so far. It certainly plays a lot better than one would expect for $30, but I may have to upgrade to a Mustang bass at some point.

The cat certainly looks impressed...

Pickups haven't changed, but I did totally strip it and, now that I have AN ACTUAL ROUTER OH MAN, smoothed out the bottom of the previously chiseled sections and turned it into one big swimming pool cavity. I shielded everything, trimmed the "pickup ring" ( ) and added 3 on-offs instead of that weird other volume thing. I also recessed the bridge...pretty much because I had a router in my hands and wanted to. Now I don't have to fuck around to make the bridge wire work. Also I really, really like the volume pot being wired backwards. Swells and stuff seem much easier for me.

The neck mudbucker is pretty self-explanatory. If you combine the P and a mudbucker it yields the trebl-iest P sound ever. Probably because one pickup is like 8k and one is 30k. Double mudbucker is instant DUB MODE. I very strongly considered throwing 2 old strat pickups in there instead of the bridge one, but I also very strongly did not feel like screwing around with it anymore. Maybe some other time.

...also the pickup screws kinda...poke out of the back. Whatever. When you impale yourself on a pickup screw it really helps you connect with the instrument.

now THAT is a beast
