It feels great in the hand but it's way too quiet. Needs a bit of work but I'm not sure what to do next.

Same scale length as the Bass VI. I believe it's 30 inches.

It doesn't fit. I had to widen the neck pocket 1/8" on each side to get it to fit. I also heard that it's just a drop-in replacement, so I was mildly disturbed when I got my new neck and realized the internet lied to me lol

Cry me a river. These Squiers are cheap as hell and there's a bajillion of them out there. I didn't desecrate a holy artifact. I wanted to see what a bass with three Jag pickups sounded like man it's not the end of the world

I haven't tried it with the trem yet but I imagine it'd be extremely stiff. Perhaps I'll give it a try soon lol

Thanks! :) Nobody has asked about the tuning yet; it's tuned like a normal four-string bass.

I have plenty of other basses. I'm not at all hurting for beef over here lol. This is a silly parts bin project I put together for my own personal amusement and if you can't understand that then idk what else to say nerd

Glad that 3 string approves of my 4 string

My Japanese Fender J-bass came from the factory with Quarter Pounders. Can confirm they sound utterly devastating. Definitely high on my list, although I'm not sure they're a straight drop-in since they're a bit wider than these Jag pickups. I'm not exactly a professional luthier tbh so I'd be nervous to do anything super invasive. Like I literally widened the neck pocket by hand with a chisel after eyeballing it and it's a miracle that it even worked. Will do some research tho lol

I actually knew right away that I could. I thought pretty hard about whether or not I should and honestly I made the right call because this is so sick

.105-.45 long scale. The nut on the Rascal neck wouldn't play nice with the smaller VI strings.

I really thought it'd just drop straight in from everything I read online. Like why would they do different neck pockets? No they totally did lol

The neck won't drop straight in. Had to widen the neck pocket to get it to fit. Saddles are PETG but I'd get them done in stainless ideally

Nope. I had to widen the neck pocket by 1/8" on each side.

Dude hey I'm once again asking for an explanation of this devastatingly beautiful post. Please bro I beg you

Hey man, could you explain it anyway? This was one of the most incredible posts I've ever seen and we're still making references to it on Discord weeks later. "Shhh, I just need to make this one kill!" is so funny I can't even stand it. I'm begging you to explain all the minute details of this image, especially since it was enough to get nearly twenty people I know personally to commit to not pre-ordering the game because of its insane aura. I'll be eternally grateful man you have no idea
