  1. I doubt there are much better basses than the import Laklands for the price. I am hugely impressed. GLWTS
  2. Agreed the BEs are ridiculously well built. I have a BE4 Exotic and just (finally) got a matching BE5. Probably the best built basses I own, and nowhere near the most expensive. 600 quid is a steal.

  6. Better buy a Spector ….. lol…. I’ll get my coat.
  7. Such quality work, lovely thing to see.
  8. Totally forgot to mention, but we did quite the sizeable festival gig in summer with our Faithless Tribute ….. The Faithless. Bass is my own Infinite Custom MS5 build with Flatwounds and EMG DC pickups. Lots of OC and Future Impact of course….
  9. I have them on 4 of my basses, undoubtedly will be some patches of rust…. But tone is good so not bothered.
  10. Very cool, so Serek B90 in bridge and Bi-Sonic in neck position then?
  11. The 2 point works fine on flat bodied instruments using a 3 point bridge. The 3 point version also works on carved tops, like a Jack Cassidy bass.
  12. Can I just check, you say 3 point replacement bridge, but pic is of a 2 point (pre 1973 type) bridge. Is the pic the actual bridge? Thanks, Harry
  13. Bass I was actually intending now also complete. 3.56 kg
  14. So the headless is now done….. 3.45 kg. Very nice weight. I am missing a knob…. But have one in the house so should be all done tomorrow. Appears I will not need to do too much to make it play nice, as the action is pretty decent already.
  15. I did small surface area, thin coats when I saw how thick it was ….. from a distance it looks okay, but up close the finish is just fugly. Had better results using a 5£ can of car paint. Maybe I had a bad batch, I have enquired…
  16. Maybe I am just difficult, I.hate everything about it…..
  17. So I decided to try the Crimson Wipe on Water based lacquer……. Like trying to coat your instrument with honey! Utterly useless stuff. Now will need to let it cure (2 weeks max), before I coat again with something that actually does work…… anyway……never again Mr Crimson. Bubinga neck on oil coat 4, headless body coat 1 and classic body (well see above).
  18. Yeah. Wasn’t planning on it, but the Walnut caught my eye for the exact same reason m.
  19. Decided on a Walnut pickguard for the “classic” and made the battery box cavity for the headless..
  20. Replacing the heavy ABM with a Nova too.
