i honestly never thought he was an admirable at all.

It’s poly people usually just scratch away at the body and forget about the neck. I rounded the neck off using a metal bar and flaked some lacquer the front by the 20th fret and on the fretboard edges you can get an old look immediately by just rubbing away at the body with a fresh dish sponge (green side) and matting down the paint a bit. Rub a bit harder where your hand would rub or the strap would rub. The key is to think about it a bit and take it in gentle stages rather than to go all out with a belt sander

this was my effort

I did my own, got a generally favourable response on here its not rocket science honestly

I enjoyed that, and I found Lenny very engaging.

Tina Weymouth is God.

I’ll watch that today

Just use a Stanley knife - 45 degrees works

Maybe she can’t play much due to health ? She’s in her 70s watched bass and drums - waiting for guitar one

Sadly i have no whisky but enjoy yourselves 🍺

I might even watch the guitar one. I watched a clip of the drums one and that Sheila E is a good drummer and hot...

I would not sniff at it a ready made audience that knows the songs and you know are going to be up for it if you do a good job. What’s not to like ? It’s better than starting mustang sally and trusting to luck

I would - talented, but a cnut

@Dad3353 surprised no one else does this

Multimeter between bridge and bell plate set to ohms should tell you that. If 0 ohms or near it then you have connectivity with no resistance

No, earths though the bell plate and pot bodies. Surprised that’s strings not earthed though i

But different instruments from the same year of exactly the same model made in the same factory on the same line by the same crew of people under the same environmental conditions sound different anyway. Even these days with CNC you need to try a few to find the best one Does he not have enough to fill his days ?

It’s obvious isn’t it ?

I cut the end of the pin off at an angle so the string ball slips down it and neither gets stuck on the pin or pops it out see sketch below

Welcome

Yes ALL of them every single mother flicking one of them. All played with a pick

Looks good to me

Cliff plays a lot of thirds to keep the bass relatively interesting

See I don’t actually mind that because it’s at least in part what bass is about. I enjoy the actual experience of two or more people making music. I find it hypnotic
