I can't believe you hijacked Skinnyman's NBD thread!

No Ricky - now listen very carefully... My father is not Welsh. Has never been Welsh, nor will ever be Welsh. He is English (& Irish). He is just a bit...weird. The weirdness is nothing to do with Wales.

I don't, but my Dad was Welsh Learner of the Year in the '90's! Helo Ricky, bore da! (He's not actually Welsh, he just likes languages {and he's wierd!})

⏫ THIS!!! DO IT!!! (white electrical tape)

Its 'cos its 'lush'! (see - I'm even down with the Monmouthshire lingo & whatnot! )

Naff. Buy a second one if you want to do that!

Agree ⏫

Don't mind @Ricky 4000 - he won't have meant it! He just had a bad experience with a porcupine once...

Glad you're enjoying it Cicero

Nice one Skinnyman! I think the green looks ace! Those little basses make some noise - you wouldn't believe it from the mini-humbuckers! Enjoy! (& think very carefully before you re-spray!)

Nice though!

Yeah! What did the Romans ever do for us?

Nice bass! As you say, it'll be difficult to replace the knobs with something that matches the original - they were brass finish (rather than gold) & quite a broad diameter. If you don't like the look of the plastic ones, you could get something like this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/VS004-Vintage-Control-Telecaster-Guitars/dp/B01M3S6L3E/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1549432720&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=Guitar+knobs+brass+flat+top&dpPl=1&dpID=41jIB-3-NFL&ref=plSrch - not too expensive. I'm not sure about the truss rod cover, you might be right about it having been reversed, although mine is solid black. Enjoy your Thunder ⚡ projeKtWEREWOLF!

... and Wednesdays. There, I think that just about covers it.

You lucky werewolf! Original had knurled brass knobs with a grub screw - yours has most prob had plastic put on when someone knicked the brass ones for another project, or maybe just preferred the look. You know the rules - pics or it didn't happen! Love my Thunder 1A

You're in trouble now Ricky!
