some question about kahler

this is a mock up, pardon my poor photoshop skill


ignore the single coil rout. also ignore the 21 frets..
i also changed my mind about the hardware, black hardware look better than chromes...

i also found this kahlered elrick at talkbass, awesome!!

Your photoshop pic isn't showing up.

And yes ... I prefer black hardware too.

all black hardware except the jazz plate

Still didn't work. It might be my phone.

Did you "flatten" the image and "save as" a .jpeg?

Maybey try to image host at a smaller size or less resolution.

i can see the pics on my HTC and my computer naturally...

Stoopid phone.

Ill chek it later........

i tried to resize the mockup, hope it will show on your phone

That is one MEAN looking PJ bass! And with all of the options, there won't be anything you can't do!

thanx eric, actually it will be PH bass, but i can't mockup the jazz pickup rout so it look like PJ (poor photoshop skill)
it supposed to have 24 frets

ya eric P/H P/H P/H

Oops! Gotcha!

lol...everybody got a p/j or j/j or HH

Would that make mine an HH?

yours is a HH, that's for sure.

hey eric, for the bridge humbucker pickup, what brand/model pickup is that?

It was custom made by my guitarist Andy Beech. He hand-carved the bobbins out of some kind of exotic wood, wound the coils himself, and even created the pickup ring. It is actually an eight-string guitar humbucker, and it is a MONSTER!

wow, thats great!!
how about the neck pickup, it is soapbar or humbucker too?

The neck pickup would be this:

I wasn't a fan of active electronics until I played the bass that Andy built for our drummer Doug, and it has an EMG 40DC in it. I was completely overwhelmed by the tone, and I knew I had to have one!

I've used some emg select split p's that are passive. Really impressed with the tone for a reasonably priced passive pickup.

When I do something like actually spending some money, I want to drop some emg's in the washburn bantam. I don't like its harsh mid tone ... I still haven't ripped it apart and tuned it up yet.

hi y'all

i guess this project was postponed until an unspecified time limit, my biggest thanks goes to madmike, and of course the whole forum member (eric, amimbari) for this dream
(yet come true), but i highly appreciated and flattered, so many new thought and information i gain, u guys ROCKS!!

this project supposed to be my dream, and i still search something i might add later when the time has come..
i emailed John Brown from BGF for kahler 7415 + graptech piezo-Midi and it cost $912, i guess i'll start saving some bucks before i decide to re-run this project

meanwhile, the bass (cort RB5) is getting new preamp, get a new piezo bridge and piezo buffer soon, happy with it

If everyone else is like me, some of the dream basses I can save, work on and achieve. Some just don't come to fruition.

That's what im doing now ... saving. Burnt through my savings, back to work now, catching up on bills, etc. I've had 2 project s on the bench for months now.

Next project is gonna involve the cnc router.

And work, work, work
