Yes I’d put a smear of silicon under the tuner plate to hold it down i avoid drilling holes if possible

If it’s just one per tuner I’d just leave them out

I’d pay a fiver to not see you play 😝

Nope Judging by “them changes” youre doing fine

I’d like one, if I were still playing 4 strings. Totally 5 now. Green would be my choice as the others are just a bit 1987 Ibanez

For £700 a scratch plate wouldn’t bother me. It’s the more important parts that I think are amiss.

He may not know mine were pretty good

Serial not found is a big red flag the blocks probably are stickers, but the ferrule and string retainers look a bit hooky to me, exactly as they did to @HeadlessBassist I’d say it was a bitsa

Drumroll… then cymbal

I used packaging from Next socks - doesn’t shrink or squash … unlike the socks …

Sire v7 would be my recommendation well done for helping him get away from The Dark Side

Yes but if they are made of tonewood … 🍿

Youre a martyr and a true inspiration to all who aspire to personal purity quite like the idea of the neep one and the les Paul (bass obviously, not the weedy kind) 🤮

We aren’t local … see league of gentlemen “Edward and tubs’ local shop”

2 out of 3 ain’t bad, as someone, probably Shakespeare himself wrote

Lead him away from The Dark Side

Perhaps I will see you in November @neepheid

I was told by a luthier and professional db player (who made his own cello, as you do) that on an acoustic db it’s not that important to be precise as the note takes longer to form as a sound by which time you’ve moved on to the next note. and breathe….

Hmm - needs tort. And a p bass

If I’ve learned one thing about 5, and it’s my third attempt it is to forget it’s there until you need to “play across” to avoid open strings - few songs use notes lower than E example you could play teenaged dirtbag by playing across from fret 5 rather than use E and A open strings, then youre free to shift up and down by a semitone if needed

What was this bass @Stub Mandrel ?

I assume both those portions were yours?

Gutted to miss this
