Thank you ;-) The pickups are 5-string soapbar humbuckers that I found on eBay UK (?35 for the pair including postage). Don't know much else about them, but they make a great sound!

Steve, I think it is amazing that you managed to build this in your apartment. You are a legend mate.

Cheers! I ordered the neck from a guy called Hu Song Li (hsongsong) that I found on eBay who was selling several custom made basses and guitars and mentioned that he did most types of custom work. I sent him the specs and he charged me $158 (US) including shipping for the completed neck, which has a great feel to it. The only downside was that he said it would take about 18 days and it took nearly four months. Well worth the wait, though!

Hello Steve,
 
Just watched the Youtube clip - I am in Malaysia on business.  I can't watch youtube in China - it is far too difficult for the government to regulate.
 
Nice playing on the original tracks. I hope that I get the chance to visit Copenhagen later this year and meet you in person.
 
I'll keep you posted. Kindest regards, Garth
