  4. Hi, I’ve just finished my lockdown project Harley Benton kit, and I’m chuffed with the results. I have only dabbled with playing the bass guitar over my 50 years of playing guitars but needed one for some lockdown home recording. I know I’m not a real bassist but it pains me to say I’m really enjoying playing it. I now it’s bad having the Fender decal but I won’t be selling it. No it’s not a wrap it’s stretch fabric like used for leggings. It’s stuck on front and back only. I only choose that fabric because it allows the fabric to go into the con curved part on the back. Because the fabric was quite thick I had to use lots of layers of rustins plastic coating to fill all the wholes. When it’s hard you can cut and blend in the edges. When you have enough depth of coating I sanded it flat and handed over to my son who a car sprayer. He blacked out the edges to hide where the fabric is blended in then lacquered it. Look on YouTube there’s a few people doing it. I didn’t buy the leggings, I nicked them off someone’s washing line. No woah!!! I didn’t, l bought the fabric off the roll.

  7. Hi, iv'e had my Peter Cook since it was made for me in 1980. Peter was recomended to me by our new at the time bassist who had a Firebird bass made by peter. We all thought it was the bee's. So i met him round the back of his house in his over sized shed and ordered mine. I remember not liking the head of the Gibson Firebird so he reworked it. And better for it i think. What do you think.
