I bought a P bass copy off CL for very little money. I already have a number of basses. Short of turning it into a fretless how else should I sodomize this thing and turn it into an interesting frankenbass?

Here are some things I've done as successful bass experiments.
-Get an interesting pickup like the QP or Dimarzio Split P.
-Try some unconventional strings. Tapes, flats, stainless steel, something you haven't tried before.
-Tune it to your desired tension rather than your desired pitch.
-Go BEAD on it. Or ADGC.
-Make it a piccolo bass.
-Make it a 2 string bass.
Won't share my unsuccessful bass experiments, lolLast edited by alex1fly; 08-10-2022, 04:10 PM.Originally posted by crusty philtrumAnyone who *sings* at me through their teeth deserves to have a bus drive through their face

Please, don't destroy the bass just because it was cheap ... "if it aint broke, don't fix it!!"
I'd put on some nice strings, a good pickup, maybe upgrade the obvious.
rock on!!

^^ I'd recommend routing it for atleast TWO huge pickups, one right by the neck (mudbucker style) ... that's my personal fav. bass pickup & placement!If somethings important- send a PM. I might be offline for long periods. Rock on!!!
