  1. Some stand out finishes on some of this lot... from Wood to Wowzer!... ^^^ and well above the price point...
  2. SR600 & EDA900... The GSR200 is out of shot, sulking...
  3. Nice and interesting intro... but i'm sure you know the rules... Pictures (or pictures of pictures if need be...) or it didnt happen! lets see 'em... specially the old and home grown... Take at a look at the build diaries... ya never know? Edit: Just googled Harmony H49... more knobs than a boy band!
  4. Headstock front and back, and back of body pics may help a bit... I think you have covered some important points... A hand me down from ya Dad, and a good player... Nice hazy anodized looking Blue enjoy.
  5. Love the Rick Bass shape... Iconic... Never even held one. (Don't really like their guitar shapes, look overly fussey) But to me that blue burst makes it look like a cheap toy... too bright i think. Natural Wood, or a Classic Plain Black or White for me... Style v's Fashion.
  6. Could it be that the Bartolini Mk1 are a 'Reverse P Split Coil' in a soap bar, as fitted to the likes of my SR600, are being compared with a Bartolini Humbucker soap bar? Apples 'n Oranges
  7. Bourns? but check the mounting bush dia. replaced the blend pot on the SR for a MN, had to open the hole up a little...
  8. Professional Music Technology https://www.pmtonline.co.uk/?gclid=CjwKCAiAn7L-BRBbEiwAl9UtkJWCxaFB9Za3SbyswHqdIFkYazPQz2BqzSePBZpoMHXdkt5_gHHEVBoCap0QAvD_BwE
  9. Used to love it when Weekend World used to come on the telly on a Sunday 'afters back in the late '70's 80's
  10. Nice... I voted clear, and so did a few others... What do you think Yorks5? Happy with the look? Noting the Carbon neck 'n headstock, if it were a 'modern normal P body' and usuall pickguard would of suggested a Carbon or Carbon Wrap.
  11. Subtle n simple... Nice Initial familiarity of the pickup and pickguard to the eye... Then the 'Tele' difference to the body. Bit like when reverse headstocks started making an apperance. You going reversed Tele-stock?
  12. Silver polish cloth will be fine... Autosolve... Mask the fret board , a smear on the frets, allow a little time to darken / blacken - by the time you have done the last the first will be ready to polish off. I use a little white mop on a dremmel, lowish speed, couple of passes back n forth across the width of the neck / length of the fret, not pressing down to hard... Then a quick wipe with cloth, remove the tape, n clean the fretboard, lemon oil for wood, polish for laquered mapel.
  13. Octaver... Octave Up, with a touch of modulation, Chorus for example?
  14. Hooky... What Ibby Bass... If ya check the Ibby website parts listings for model, bridge, you can find the saddle part number... see em on reverb and a couple of german sites, possibly on the bay of e... 2BB1MDI013 ? set of 4 ia about £15 plus postage whole B10 bridge on the bay is £25... posted
  15. Have a measure up for a bit of brass from the bay... or https://www.metaloffcuts.co.uk/product/natural-brass-sheet/ listing suitable size off cuts 100m x 100m 1.5, 2mm thick...
  16. Aunt Hilda's Fur Coat... Isn't that by YES?
  17. Brass markers n nut different and have come up nice. gonna fashion a matching brass truss nut cover? Nice thru neck n wood. bet its got a bit of weight n substance to it.
  18. Nice find... ...and the after pics? Are you removing the flags and headstock adornments? What does the back look like, thru neck?
  19. Nice... what a great idea 😉 Silver screws match the hardware... knobs, bridge, machine heads etc.
  20. Screw Fix Danish Oil... £5... Almost clear, very light tint, several coats, nice matt to satin finish. Its all in the before hand prep... unless you want a worn look. Did my Cruiser P-a-like. (Search 'Danish Oil' on here and you will get a few posts n ideas) Applied using the slurry method with fine wet n dry.. easier than spraying.
  21. Do you need the width adjust? will the current Accucast B500 fit? If you can go with the std 19mm spacing maybe drop down a model of bridge for say the current B300 or B120?
