  1. nice work there Norris*** ** even if it does have way too many strings
  2. well, the procedure I read was sand, oil grain filler nitro clear coat to boost the grain nitro colour coat nitro clear coat since I'm already going to have to buy a clear coat can...
  3. Should I use black grain filler? sadly I don't have any spare powlownia but maybe white pine would do so, linseed grain filler - scrape off excess linseed, buff back and sand whiteburst edges then white trans, cure then flatten ultra thin top coat.
  4. i was thinking of blonde on blonde (nurse!) burst so white where that is black; I have Mary Kaye in my mind. Thanks for the example though.
  5. I'd read that it nourished and protected wood. Its also cheap and I don't need to spray it so I have more control.
  6. tell him you're trying out a guitar in the wrong shop. Then watch him shut up.
  7. I understand then that it will be light, which is no bad thing. I'm doubting my ability to do a blonde burst
  8. I'll use a strip of foil like a 62
  9. what bass do you play, joan ?
  10. can I use linseed oil as a cover to the grainfiller? apparently you normally put a clearcoat on before colour layer added a link to parts in the top post
  11. I meant "whatever the standard US offering is these days" 'professional' or somesuch ?
  12. Was it grain filled ?
  13. yes same guy
  14. no, but I've always got wood
  15. I have only seen bodies, but there was a post on here from someone who bought a kit.I did find out from talking to the seller that they don't have earth holes drilled from the bridge. This is not a huge issue for me as I was going to use shielding foil so I will just use it to join the bridge to the pickup shield a la 62 but it might bother some
  16. i saw someone do this as a trans red finish
  17. they did, yes, but I wasnt sure if cellulose was the same as nitro cellulose.
  18. It’s the postage that’s killing I did look at his site - just wondering if I can use car paint though
  19. I'd go for the Sire or a roadworn / classic 50/60s P or J
  20. It took four years of trying on various trips to that london but I finally got to @thebassgallery and the man there was kind enough to stay open a few minutes to let me look around.

    Rumple

    Jesus what a total nightmare - never, never again ! Charlatan ... hang on - that was someone else easy smooth transaction with the item arrived at the speed of an arrow with a jet engine attached (and a guidance system too obviously)
  22. can anyone tell me - Rothko, northwet parts etc charge a lot of money for a rattle can of celluose lacquer. Thereis a car finishing place in sheffield that supplies cellulose car paint in 400ml aerosol is this the same stuff ?
  23. I didn't realise that buttah played - it would be rubbish at tag, it couldn't chase you or anything.
  24. mexican stuff is pretty good these days - I'm honestly not sure the US models are worth the huge premium for a handful of extra toys @andy67
