My kind of therapy would be a good chinwag and a beverage of choice! I have 2 Hohners, a passive white and an active black with Drop D tuner - love them. Zombie Bash - That would be a fantastic colour I may work on, or get someone to!

@Stub Mandrel yep! Its a great point. In the recent v hot summer - onklly bass to stay in tune

I think if we had a Shaun of the Dead moment - I would actually use the non-relic bass as a bat, mainly because it’s a Hohner....

Its probably because they are actually my best basses is why....

Fair play to the player. Weirdly I think I take better care of my relic basses for dings as opposed to the non relics - but me and @SpondonBassed are going to therapy for that

So me calling it a turdschach mask is no better......... Book us in for a double session

I was finding this cathartic - seems I am on a chocolate swirly downward spiral. I certainly don’t want anger to lead to fear, hatred and then madness. You May be right, I caught myself looking at a ....burst bass the other day, and not wretching like the crying game

Yes Me - if they are turdburst - that colour should be wiped away

Badum Tish!!!! 🚶‍♂️🤦‍♂️ My kind of joke

@Low End Bee I agree, Mods can be cool @leftybassman392 the relic lovers are for the most part not overly sensitive, it’s more a staunch opposition to it from the relic haters. Personally I don’t get turdburst, i’d prefer a hello kitty bass, but I haven’t started a thread on it yet....

@stingrayPete1977 I see your Ray is surviving the rest of time, but the question is how long/how many playing hours to get an ‘honest’ relic in someone with average acidity in their acrid sweat and a normal sized belt buckle using pick, slap and fingers?

@stingrayPete1977 I suppose Sandberg has only been going since 1986, you never get wear on basses over a 33 year time period, they are just getting warmed up...

Not entirely respray is not part of a service. All mojo is good mojo whether or not it’s then buffed and refinished or allowed to be viewed whenever it’s has been created. Mojo - is just ‘style’ you can’t say Prince Phillip has more Mojo than Brad Pitt because he been around longer. Cars is a good one tho - my 15 year old Battered Honda Civic was legendary - few scars - worked a dream - someone drove into me, I had to apologise to them for leaving the funk of 40 thousand years on their brand new car, plus no one ever tried to steal or break into it

Ignore me just looked them up - built from scratch. Good luck to the man 👍🏾

Are they parts basses or fully luthiered?

They look absolutely stonking and with demon pick ups Good work sir!

Depends if you employed @Ricky 4000 ‘s wiggly worms

Also - can’t remember if someone already said this, but if you have a decent standard fender body - get a Status Graphite J neck - it is sublime and will fit right into the pocket. Fast, feels great, Rich harmonics and if you don’t like the status logo dat on the headstock I think they are moving it to the back if you ask them

+1 for a sandberg neck - usually around 39mm at the nut If you want something really light, really punchy. Check out their new Super light series - comes in under 3kg and the new Sandberg black label pick ups are immense

Or a crufts best in show

As it happens - I found some proper ones - could be game on tonight if the kids go to bed!

Ha!!! defo can’t do that one due to lack or screws, but may we’ll drill the holes and fit the pots but yes Sorry master Jabba, your padawan is wasting time

Like a numpty forgot to order pick up screws so the final bit i’ll Have to wait for.

But if you strip it to make it relickeyingable, does that then also count as fake mojo, forced mojo etc.......
