[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1450815141' post='2936176'] Not wishing to be negative or cast nasturtiums on your creative abilities, but I think it would probably save you a world of time and grief if you bought a used case and relined it to your specifications. [/quote] Ta! That was what I was going to do... I think I may have to give up on this thread, because it's obvious my OP didn't do what I wanted it to.

Could I be on the list please? Probably a somewhat vain hope but you never know

That adds new fear to the phrase "multiple loggins", which I see often as part of my work...

Clever I should do something like this.

How are decisions made? What are we trying to do? Who does the arrangements? Do I have to sing?

Looks like a bit of AT-AT to me.

[quote name='Jazzneck' timestamp='1450725423' post='2935292'] Yup, it comes with age and that's why I like nickel. If you want sparkly try cleaning them gently with Duraglit - follow the instructions on the tin. Do not rub hard as the Duraglit is abrasive and may rub off the nickel plating. [/quote] If I understand correctly, jewellers' rouge will do the same thing, but rather more gently. Where you get it, and how much it costs, I don't know.

[quote name='colgraff' timestamp='1450692983' post='2934850'] Look Dave, I can see you're really upset about this. I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill, and think things over. [/quote] Open the pod bay door, Col.

Welcome aboard!

If you were looking to sell bass things, this is at least as good as anywhere else... Welcome!

Herge, Herger, Hergest?

[quote name='owen' timestamp='1450646920' post='2934618'] The logical thing to do would be to install one using side LED dots on a neck. Octave dots = in tune. Either side sharp or flat. It all sounds so easy. [/quote] Brilliant! Someone really ought to do this.

Joe Strummer + The Mescaleros, 'Streetcore'.

Through a convoluted route I got hold of this recently. Now I am GASsing for a fretted one to go with it... http://basschat.co.uk/topic/265853-yamaha-bex-4-fretless-now-sold/page__p__2834886__hl__bex__fromsearch__1#entry2834886

Nor me, but I don't know Fender history. A 1958 P-bass would originally have had a two-saddle BBOT, I think. Does it look like a 1958 P?

Rectangular, definitely. Wooden, probably.

I looked at these and was put off by the relicing, not being a fan of such things. Shallow of me, perhaps.

Or, for that matter, recommend me a book. I can still read, I think...
