  1. it's because they have already done the headstock Tokai changed their's when the ruling came in warmouth etc put licensed by Fender and pay a small royalty
  2. what about ESE in maidstone. I remember buying my first Trace Elliot in there in 1986 IIRC AH150 Mk5
  3. yes Andy will clamp it, use some heat too probably The neck has a slight kink in it too but it's very slight and we think it will straighten itself, as in the time of removal and an hour later it had relaxed a lot. He's never removed a fingerboard that way before, not using an iron anyway. It worked a treat So far I thank you all for your input and encouragement Truss rod repair tomorrow actually I'll post a picture of it, the thread has stripped and there's a kink where its stripped, very very strange
  4. I haven't seen a mention for Peter Cooks in Hanwell or Tempo I worked in Music Mart in Canterbury for 18 moths till it went under in 1991 I also spent a lot of money in there
  5. that was Socodi music
  6. any one else have a 4 string one, I'm quite interested
  7. lesson for next time, keep the scraper flat and pull from the sides maybe use a metal ruler/straight edge Still we're confident of getting the board flat, we have the technology
  8. Need to clamp and straighten the board but may put a nice piece of ebony on there See if we can straighten it first need a truss rod too But I'm going to try making one at work first. After all it's only a piece of stainless rod, anchored at the end and with a thread on the other end
  9. Board off Truss rod goosed but we can't work out how
  10. OK so it starts today Have had a busy few weeks and so I haven't been able to get to this but I'm going over to see my luthier friend and he's going to help me do it. Hopefully I can salvage the truss rod by recutting the threads at work, if not I'll fit a new rod I shall take videos and pictures Fingers crossed
  11. I have 3 of these types of bass neck and they are surprisingly ok actually one has really lovely flame to it I am a bitsa fan and have several
  12. I have a neck like that, came from ebay Truss rod adjuster at the headstock is the biggest give away
