alright so some of you may know that im building a devastator bass. now i dont think ill be able to copy it 100% heres why. jerrys bass has like 29 frets and it is cut at an angle on the end (if anything ill get lagest available and cut it). jerry uses 4 emg pickups (i dont want to put on 4 and i think im going with dimarzios) jerry doesnt have any tone or volume knob.. now thats a step lower from my hoppus i think im gonna put them on. jerrys bass has a chrome bridge, im gonna buy a badass bridge in black. im going to mount my output jack on the back with a strat style output (im not sure how he did his but i know its on the back somewhere) and finally im going to paint my either darrrrrrrrrkest blue almost black like his or a color shifting black/blue. now i need some opinions. do you think itll still loook awesome my way? maybe better? let me know what you think

i think your way will be better, although i didnt realise he uses 4 emg pickups, i thought it was just two

then again, i know hardly anything

when you say four pickups, it makes me think of bootsey's bass, not a double split coil(thats what p-stule pickups are called, yes?) setup...

that could just be me though...
