Made a mess with the super glue but it will hold it until I get a replacement set 😂

Think this must be the culprit!

Funny you should say this... PXL_20250418_085145073.mp4

I'll give this a go shortly!!

If this was the case should I hear it rattle when I shake the whole bass? Just gave it a good shake and can't hear anything...

Doesn't seem to be neck relief as the strings don't seem to be hitting the frets to cause the rattle.

Can anyone tell me what the problem might be? When I hold the body in certain positions the rattle goes away. Bass is Fender Modern Player Jazz Bass Short Scale. PXL_20250413_133411345.mp4

For those interested. I just used Plasticote 2 in 1 paint and primer from Hobbycraft and a satin clear coat. Not the greatest job in the world but it was cheap 😅

Got a can of Plasticote (I think it's polyurethane spray paint) from Hobbycraft and a can of clear coat for less than £15 for both. Worth a punt!! Stay tuned for results 😅

Definitely doesn't have to. Might take a trip to Hobbycraft...

Rescued an Ibanez TMB30 from my mates rehearsal room recently and have got to the point now where I'm wanting to repaint the body. I'd like to paint it this sort of colour but struggling to find any nitrocellulose paint to match this sort of colour (doesn't need to be exactly this colour and I'm not looking for a perfect finish as the bass was a freebie!!) Any recommendations would be a massive help. They only seem to do Shell pink at northwest guitars 😔

Any update mate?
