Also my first bass bought in the mid noughties. Electrics were foofed and the bass was proper manky. I took it all apart to clean and ended up losing half the parts 😂 ah well.
Hey Dude, welcome!
I am also from the North East, Aberdeenshire. Hope you have plenty bawbees in your wallet as you'll need it here if you venture into the marketplace! 😂😂😂
