    And here we have the stripped body :lol:

    I found out from the original owner that there is some filler on the rear of the body which the Nitro Mors decided to melt...It also melted some of the binding on the body :unsure:

    Next up: Sanding, filling and priming for dipping!

    Great job so far, excited to see the updates!

    I did! I didn't do this as fretless conversion, I simply did it to copy the thin, hard finish that Rickenbacker use on their fretboards. I've done it before, and it does work. I built up thin layers of superglue, then simply leveled and polished. A bit of a hassle on higher frets, but not impossible.

    Looks more like a mess to me! That's why they use lacquer!

    Have you tried contacting ESP support?
    They might be able to advise you on if the TR can be removed without removing the finger board.

    From my limited experience with ESPs they have nice necks and finger boards it would be useful to be ably to do it without a any major surgery.

    I have the truss rod removed, without removing the fretboard, they are just the slide in type rather than fixed

  4. Hello,

    I'm in need of some help. I've had a ESP Ltd 5 string F-155DX bass for about 6 years. About a year or so ago, a guitar shop owner stripped the struss rod nut. So I need to replace it. I have the truss rod removed aswell as the nut, but I was hoping someone might have a spare truss rod or a truss rod nut nocking about, any help would be appreciated!

    Cheers!
