I'm putting together a "Pit Bull Guitars ESB-4 Electric Bass Guitar Kit", or a "335 Bass" from "The Fretwire". They seem to be discontinued at the moment, but they might be offered again in the future. This bass is especially nice for practicing at home, as you don't have to plug it in. It's always read to go. Tuning stability is good too. Some Details about the build: Clear Coat: Nitro Cellulose Lacquer Spray Cans (I've used the ones from Northwest Guitars, but any brand will probably do) Tru-Oil finish on the neck Wood Dye: Keda Wood Dye Kit for the orange / dartfords Blue Metal Complex Wood Dye Powder The videos I'm mentioning in the beginning (from the Guns and Guitars channel): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9yDJiGg4RY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wRoI9jYbqU& Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 00:11 Kit Review 00:55 Preparing the wood & dying 02:12 Making racing stripes with wood dye 03:33 Gluing the neck 03:49 Applying Tru Oil on the neck 04:21 Spraying Nitro Clear Coat 05:21 Levelling the frets 06:07 Sanding and Polishing 06:26 Drilling & Assembly 07:30 Soldering Electronics 08:46 Final Assembly 09:20 Bass is finished 09:45 Sound Demo Leave a Like on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/georgFigel Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/georg.figel/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/georg_f_guitar ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gipqKxhnqA

The song is "Adagio for Strings" by Samuel Barber (a.k.a. the theme from the movie Platoon), but I'm playing it in the Style of Robin Trower's "Bridge of Sighs" which means it's a bluesy arrangement, with a uni-vibe guitar effect. The uni vibe Pedal that I used is a modded Danelectro Cool Cat Vibe (I modded it to be able to control the modulation speed with a pedal... you can hear that it's speed is varying if you listen closely). Rest of the gear: Ran Custom 7 String Fender Richie Kotzen TLR155 Telecaster Ceriatone 5f4 (Fender Super Amp Clone) Squire Vintage Modified 70' Jazz Bass ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67hFq-XIbdM
