I'd like to see our favourite Basschat/eBay 'luthier' have a go at improving that

Speaking of which I was looking at some of his 'items' last night. Please check out the fretless he's peddling....the description is .....well, I don't know what to say really, but he's surpassed himself!!!! -
Tbh the only actually good thing about this bass is...is....nope...I got nothing .

Nice to see a seller on eBay selling an honest Bass at an honest price with an unpretentious description....

I'm rather disappointed that he hasn't "lovingly" lemon oiled the fretboard though...
[/quote]
Or filed the neck to within a gnats chuff of the fretboard to give it really 'fast fretting'......what even IS fast fretting?????? -

Or, even better, he could have done this:

He could have done x4 output sockets. One for each string.
Numpty.

😂😂😂 brilliant!!! -
And one has to commend the 'artistic' and 'personalised' headstock logo that has clearly been so lovingly applied 😳

Replacing broken nut
in Repairs and Technical
Posted
Hi guys,
So-I defretted an old encore as a project and am really happy with it, filled slots with veneer, profiled, lemon oiled.....it's really nice. I then decided in my wisdom to change - rather than file down- the nut....and it the prices of removing said nut, chipped the wood on the neck directly behind the nut 😩
I managed to salvage it, reattached it and all is good....however, I now need to fit the replacement nut.....would I be better just filling the space left by the previous nut and then cutting and filing to fit or should I use the existing slot and file away to fit? The new nut is a std height so needs quite a bit off the bottom of it to bring it down to fretless height......
Not sure any if this makes sense-but any tips/advice would be hugely appreciated !
Cheers!
Matt
