Re: ZoldosCustom carved top single cut
Thank you Drew. I am honestly still struggling with a headstock design that I am truly comfortable with. I always keep coming back to the notched design though. I do like it as well, but am not a 100% sold on it. I think it's just one of those things that I will always be tweaking and altering.

Re: ZoldosCustom carved top single cut
The Goldenage sound awesome, sorry but no soundclips. You definitely can't beat them for the price. I tried a pair of the GFS humbuckers in a previous guitar and they just sound really flat. The Goldenage have a lot of character and great output. With the Wenge fingerboard, I sanded it all the way t...

Re: ZoldosCustom carved top single cut
I knew that the design was similar to something, and I couldn't place it, but now I see the Link connection. Yeah, there's a few hours invested. It's hard for me to track the actual hours because I do most of my building during breaks and lunches at work. I work in a custom cabinet shop so it's wood...

Re: ZoldosCustom 5 string bass
Thank you all for the compliments. I have always wanted to make my own bridge and never got around to it until this build. Now that I know how to go about it, there really aren't any limitations as far as string numbers, spacing, style, etc. Rather than paying an absurd amount of money for a custom ...

Re: ZoldosCustom 5 string bass
I'm glad that you like it. I actually ordered the saddles from an ebay store, I think it was Southeast Music. I ordered 5 individual bridges, similar to hipshots individuals but not nearly as nice. I then just stripped the saddles from the bridges since they were cheap enough that I didn't feel guil...

ZoldosCustom 5 string bass
I haven't posted on this site in a few years, so here goes nothing. I just finished this bass up a few weeks ago. I built it during breaks and lunches at the custom cabinet shop that I work at. Here are the specs: - 5 piece body ( Cherry/ Ebony veneer/ Walnut core/ Ebony veneer/ Cherry) - Neck: 7 pi...
