I bought a stingray fretless neck from Chris, excellent communication and extremely well packed, as most couriers are ignorant Neanderthals this was appreciated, thanks dude👍

Finally got a chance today to make the string through ferrules, might make a bridge cover next week.

The stain was in the Danish oil, so was easy to apply and more coats = darker shade, gunstock oil to finish is clear and just adds gloss and protection without affecting the resonance of the body, an easy finish to get right.

The soldering iron and stand is wonderful, the magnifier has a ring of bright LED lights on the underside as my eyes are getting old, it also has helping hands and another clip on a flexible arm, soldering iron was included, Lidl €40.

Yes a wipe on method was used, squares of quality kitchen roll folded up into a two inch pad is my best solution, patience is needed if you apply a coat too soon over a previous coat you can get a run, what I do is I set the body up on my kitchen table and 3 to 4 times a day apply a coat to one side as I pass through the kitchen, easy finish to get right and easy to fix a blemish.

'51 P bass that I've been building over the last few weeks , One piece swamp ash body from Guitarbuild.co.uk Fender neck, Schaller nickel tuners, Schaller nickel strap buttons, Solid Brass high mass bridge modified for string through body, Second hand Seymour Duncan Hot pickup, Fender pots, Home made control plate, Ten coats of Danish Oil, Ten coats of gunstock oil, Sounds fantastic, Very punchy even with two year old Dunlop flats, sounds smooth deep and warm with the tone rolled off, This ones a keeper. Very lightweight at 7.5 lbs. delighted with it.

I bought a Seymour Duncan ‘51 P bass pickup from Harry, swift shipping and well packed, pickup is as new and sounds great, good guy to deal with.

Hi all, some advice needed, friends of mine who are a young original band would like to break into the Uk university gigging scene, does anyone have any advice or contacts, the band is called Cider wasps, and they are not too shabby, [url="https://youtu.be/P7SPSBRhcFA"]https://youtu.be/P7SPSBRhcFA[/url]

I have one of these in sunburst, also my first bass Christmas 31 years ago, I'm planning to restore it to its former glory for this Christmas, pickups are toast! not a bad bass at all lovely fast neck on it.

I have an Svt 2 pro head in a rackcase with a power supply and a rack tuner it also has a few custom fans and a power supply for the fans, It weighs 125 lbs which makes the Genz Benz uber 2 X 12 cab feel lightweight, I'm 47 but very fit and active being 6'2 and 16 stone helps, love that all tube tone ❤️
