Me too, if I lead with index I go out of strict time and go all swing

Keep us routed, I mean “posted”

Pm me

Top notch, well done. You’re ahead of me already Good thumb anchoring technique btw, And you should be less self-deprecating at the beginning. There’s nothing to excuse

That’s for a seller, sellers can’t give negative feedback even if the buyer is a Richard

Yes you can, it’s an auction not a classified ad. Should have put a reserve on it, or used gumtree

You cannot as you did not pay

They do it, ask for the complaints team, not just a regular phone person. I had to report someone for feedback extortion and they suspended her there and then - call at 8am on the dot and you should get straight through

If no money changed hands you cannot neg doing shipping quotes can take significant time to research, not saying he’s a good seller, or that you’re wrong

👋 welcome ozan wait till she starts counting how many you have. “Limit” is a bad word to hear ...

I have a jazz bass that I finished in nitro car paint. I left it in my car for a year. It’s crazed up nicely with winter and summer. It’s in its virgin form in my build thread . Apparently you can rub shoe polish into the cracks - think that tip came from @ricksfine52

@ikay you mean Sting, right ? 😛

We demand pictures, mister. Make with the snappy snaps ....📸🎞

True, I used a lot of input from @Skol303 and his nice 70s p, I also looked at a lot of images of Adam clayton’s beat-up 70s P.

Okay but this thread is about relics, not road worn through decades. Mine was made of Japanese parts, I understood from the bass doc

Bass doc p in the “relic refuge” thread. Never tweaked it, never needed to

I went to a car paint display in Halfords, browsed for colour then simply ordered the colour I wanted from a nitro can supplier on eBay using the paint code

I tried one and honestly didn’t notice any difference in sound. It was marginally easier to use but that didn’t Justify the outlay and time

Some of you folks @JohnDaBass @Harry K might like my new thread in general called “relic refuge” tell us more about how you did it.

If you’re offended by relics, don’t read any further and don’t post any negative comments. if you wouldn’t have one, or don’t think they look good; you’re entitled to your opinion and I won’t try and change your mind. if you have one, or are planning one, post your ideas and pictures here. here’s mine I used the back of a kitchen knife to roll the fretboard edges, a bradle to do the rsndom dinks and the same knife back to do the edges. I was careful to think about end grain. Bare wood was sponged with tea. I used a green dish sponge to take the gloss off the paint. I thought about the strap rub points. I did nothing with metal parts. No belt sanders were harmed

I’ve not seen one yet, tbh and I’m not that picky

Ich liebe das total I totally f ucking love it. This is mine - I’ve not done a relic before
