Bass Update #5

Bass Update #5:

There isn't much left to do before I repaint this thing. I had to take care of some screw holes in the body though.

I filled in the pickguard screw holes and tuner screw holes with toothpicks and wood glue.

After the glue dried I cut the toothpicks flush to the rest of the body and headstock and sanded it down. No more holes. There's some more final sanding I need to do to the body before I try to color the wood. I hate sanding. The reshaped headstock gives the old neck a new look. The neck will be coated with an epoxy to protect the fingerboard.
