Hi My Stingray had a D tuner fitted, and it worked fine, but I just didn't end up using it in most instances so it could be a case of is it worth the effort. Even the guy I sold the bass to was underwhelmed by it.

Hi I think that your bass has a panel on the reverse side (if I recall) , which these basses should not have (I have a T-40) coupled with the hole in the front suggests that the body is a bit messed up all round. I don't think any suggestion better than a pickguard see [url="http://pickguards.us/pricepeavey.html"]http://pickguards.us/pricepeavey.html[/url] -they should be able to make something for a T-45. I suppose the point is that if it sounds good and is suitable for playing - neck straight etc its not worth investing much money, particularly if there is damage on the neck, as something better will come up, and they are not THAT rare in the scheme of things.
