That's a beautiful bass! It's pretty much what I'm going for, though I'm going to try to make a gold coloured anodised aluminum pickguard.
We'll see how it goes though...

What kind of a bridge is that, and where did you get it?
The only bridges that I've seen that have narrower spacing are the hipshot ones, and they're way more than I'm wanting to spend on my $50 project bass.

Also, Isher, did you end up getting tath GF mm bridge? it's one that I was looking at (it kinda has the same bronco/mustang vibe)
How is the string spacing on it?

Hmmm I have a Vista Series Musicmaster bass, its great yet the bridge is not the best & I can never get it to quite intonate. Would one of those Hipshots work with it?
