    Saw the Crow live Shepherds Bush Empire '94. Birthday prez from my GF at the time. She brought out Clapton On Sea for a couple of tracks, which i didnt particularly like since i aint a fan of his. Still, a brilliant gig tho. She has class, and played some kinda Les Paul bass, amongst some guitar playing

    Laney R500H 500w Bass Amp I'll put some current pics up tomorrow but here's the thread from when I bought it off here. I've only used it live a couple of times. Moving it on cos I've just bought an EBS 350 off here and I don't need 3 amps. No trades ta I have the original box and courier will be around £10. There was one on eBay from Japan for £400+ so obviously it's rare, desirable and probably lawsuit era 😂 New pics added Original post

    If you were trying to replace the fretboard (rosewood only) then presumably you could do it like this (though why would you...any major modding on an old Fender will potentially destroy its resale value, however well it's done) but remember that a Fender neck is a single-action truss rod, inserted into a curved carve from the back and then hidden by the 'skunk stripe'. I don't mess with genuine Fender necks so I'm not the one to ask - even the frets are done differently - they are inserted from the side of the fretboard...

    Great news. I have subscribed and looking forward to receiving my first issue. Is the sample edition available in print form?
  13. Intoutof started following Pedaltrain Metro 20 With Soft Case, Home use only, £55 posted
  14. Intoutof
    From memory i bought this during lockdown for when i would be gigging on guitar and not bass....never happened and my bass Pedaltrain is still going strong so this is just taking up space. Apart from the Velcro applied to the board everything else is near mint. Collection and cup o' tea from Warboys PE28 or can post to mainland UK

    Does it have a truss rod ? i remember for years he refused to install rods in his "wish" "basses" so they had really wonky necks and insane action!
  16. Skybone
    It's the white Hamer Scarab bass that I always associate him playing, from the "Hysteria" era.

    Just out of interest, would this work on the 1962-1982 veneer rosewood boards seen on Fenders, or might that be too fiddly compared to a slab?

    I see the BTB865SC 's pushing £900+ with VAT/Duty/shipping from Reverb EU 3rd party JPN sellers but if your will to go direct using the Zenmarket/hardoff route with surface shipping you can get one from Japan landed into the UK for about £700 'ish (if your willing to wait 3 months! for surface shipping) im thinking of doing this but need to move some other gear first (not somuch for the money just the space!) Surface shipping is about £40 pretty sure its just me that refuse's to pay £120+VAT for air shipping!
  19. MungoBass
    Price drop to £20 including InPost locker service.

    I agree - never use steam. Steam can be useful for getting a glued neck off, but I quite agree, never a fretboard.
  21. Brian18242
    The bass is not a stock model. Looks rather nice.
  22. Gizmo
    Wow that's not a fretboard that's a veneer ! Mad skill that you got that off in one piece! /bow Set temp Med/High to start will and up it to max if you need to, as you start to get heat into the wood/tools it will become easier/faster to move onto the next section. (also i never need to add any steam myself)

    Probably a bit quicker - as you are moving it forward a few mm at a time, the wood ahead gets 'preheated' as the iron gets close - but yes, probably 30mins to 45mins

    Top man - thank you!
  26. RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE started following Rick Savage (Def Leppard) playing schecter?
  27. RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE
    Schecter do have some great basses imho . It’s true about resale value though . Dont know why . Looking at that picture , I wouldn’t have recognised Rick Savage . Perm gone . Looks great though.
  28. Andyjr1515
    I use a travel iron on hottest. Not sure what temperature that is compared with a standard iron but it feels pretty hot to me so probably a 'cotton' setting or similar
  29. itu
    So this whole process takes something like an hour?
