I ordered a mighty mite maple pbass neck and ash pbass body off of ebay and they just recently arrived. For the price I am very happy with them.
I've run into a problem though. Grounding. There is no hole drilled on the body for the ground wire to go to the bridge. I knew this when I bought it but assumed that it wouldn't be that difficult to drill the hole myself. I don't have the right drill bit (its got to be very long). So I don't know what to do. Is there anyway of grounding my bass without running a wire to the bridge?
Ideally I'd like to get an emg-p pickup which doesn't require grounding but then I'd have to dish out another 100+ dollars and figure out where the battery would go (i don't think theres enough space in the cavity) and what would I do with the kent armstrong's I paid 70 for? (anyone want them?)
Anyone else build anything from mighty mite parts? I've got two more strat style guitars on their way.
