Bass Wielder

Had a great transaction with Peter. Straight as an arrow and just as quick. A deserving recipient of my (not so…yet) famous trophy 🏆

Yessiree! Speedy stuff with Gareth….🏎️ Totally recommended 🏆

Yep…..A made guy! Nice and easy transaction. Have one of my much desired trophies 🏆

Mike was quick off the line!! A great sprinter with dealing! A deserved trophy from me! 🏆 😎

Too late for that! Come on now😅

Spoke to a good mate of mine who said much the same about removing any wood. DON’T⛔️⚠️‼️ It looks like a fingerboard job to be honest……

I hear ya….true. Don’t take off more than necessary.🧷

So maybe just the ‘blue’ section and perhaps the green????

I see what you mean guys…

Wowza! Forgot about that. Well remembered!!!🏆 Does make sense💡 Inspired me to look into getting that done!! Definitely an easier (safer?) option…but who….? Hmmmmmm🕵🏽‍♂️

Looks like this may be possible! Still would need someone to do this routing….🤔

I thought of that….but not sure. Its a neck through and quite a slim body so could be compromising the ‘joint’ area by removing wood.🤔

Yep! And he made a second pair of wings with different wood. Genius!!

No probs…understood!

Thanks guys👍🏾🤞🏽🙏🏾 ….and to stoke up the fire…here’s the rear view! Love the feel of the neck!!!!!😍

Hey, I looking for someone to do a fretted 5 fingerboard for me on a bass I’m hoping to salvage. Having tried some of the (too busy) ‘name luthiers’ from an existing list here on bass chat, I decided to give a fellow bass chatter a shot. Any help to find a capable one would be greatly appreciated. The story in a nutshell….. It’s a bass built by my now deceased friend that I inherited and I think it is potentially a great instrument. And of course it would mean a great deal to get it up to professional standards. It plays and sounds good but the space between the strings and the body (whatever that’s called), is far too low for a player like me. Can’t get the fingers below for slap etc… The idea is to replace the existing fingerboard with one that is either the right thickness or shimmed up to… I’ll attach a pic or two for visual reference. Cross fingers that I’ll get some joy amongst the talented bunch we have on BC🫡🤞🏽

Easygoing guy this Graham lad! A safe bet so highly recommended from the Bass Wielder⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sent me the item with no money handed over…what a guy!! 🏆 (I did pay him..wasn’t for free😇) Recommendations from me🫡

And the Macdaddy strikes again! Bought something off me (yay😎) Same vibe, same result! Mister Consistent👍🏾
