trust me, no one will ask. They just wont. No one cares enough or notices stuff like this

this is why I have a HW 4003. Half the price and twice as good as a Ric (IMO). I've played some nice Rics but I don't need to pay silly money these days

let us know how you get on with it

wow that is bad. It's almost like it's been done on purpose it really isn't difficult to put a fret in a slot

the description says the body is solid ash

the guitar version is alder and looks very similar

what bass is this please? That's not very good is it, even for 60 quid

I've had 2 necks from ebay and one from ali express. I have used both ebay necks and they are working well I fret levelled one, it wouldn't go dead straight but my course teacher, Dom (Crimson guitar fret levelling course) did say some necks are like that, get it as straight as you can, then level crown and polish turned out nice (lovely flamed maple too) the other neck didn't need levelling The Ali-express neck hasn't been used.............yet

I received a message telling me week 8 this morning

Yes that's right. This is the bass in question It has fret markers on the side at every fret which is madness because they're all single dots, the same size

Andy, should I put a cloth over the fretless board to prevent burning and should it be damp in this case also, the dowel holes, I can only really do through the nut slot, that's right isn't it?

I have thought this too

@Andyjr1515 do you use an iron on the fingerboard, at what temperature too please?

how hot does the iron need to be? also, it's fretless, will I burn the fingerboard wood? Can I put a cloth over the board to help

I don't think my guy wants to do it which is why I'm prepared to have a go myself. The bass is pretty worthless as it is
