Sale pending..............

Ok, here she is with ashtrays, tug-bar, case and factory tag.

Ok, bridge and all saddles back in original position. Up to buyer whether to keep as is or fill n hide the secondary holes.

Tried the soldering last nightwith a butane one and the gas ran out as soon as I lit it! Ho hum, off tomorrow so will spend a day with it.

Well, you can see how far forward I've had to move the G saddle to get it to intonate correctly; the E has siezed and will need a bit of TLC. The whole issue is puzzling me more, now. Might just pull this and get it sorted for once and for all.

Ok,measured the distance between rear pup and front of bridge and this shows bridge is now, bar a few mm, in the '60s position. God knows what's been done but I have decided that, if the bass doesn't sell, I will get that rout partially filled, foe I now believe that is where the fault lies. Naah tell me the bass would never have left the factory in this condition

Ok, here's the bridge moved back. I reckon there is still enough travel for the bridge to go forward an cover the rout hole but it would mean that the remaining two sets of holes would have to be dowel-filled first. Weird, how this bass came to be like this.

Update for this thread. Basschatter Mckendrick pointed out to me something that I has also completely missed: The bridge was [i]too far forward[/i] and that the rear holes were indeed the correct ones!! I have tonight moved the bridge back but this has now exposed part of the rout for the grounding wire (pic to follow later)!! I don't believe this bass left the Nash factory like this or if it did it was a second, but I doubt it. It's all very odd but I am much happier with the bridge back in its correct postion. Thanks to Mckendrick for pointing out something that should have been obvious to me.

Cheers, Luke. Got a custom made Jaco fretless incoming from Oz so something has to cover it.

Might have to let this go due to another fella on the horizon. Nash JB63 SB, medium relicing. DiMarzio Ultra Jazz pups. Comes with Nash oblong case both relic'd ashtrays. Some of you may have seen this bass in Bass Direct a few years back. At some point, I thought a previous owner had drilled holes for a Badass (or somesuch unit with a large footprint) behind the normal anchoring point. This wasn't spotted by myself (nor two other BCers) until I took the ashtrays off and gave it a good look-over. However, Basschatter Mckendrick pointed out to me something that I has also completely missed: The bridge was too far forward and that the rear holes were indeed the correct ones!! I have tonight moved the bridge back but this has now exposed part of the rout for the grounding wire!! I don't believe this bass left the Nash factory like this or if it did it was a second, but I doubt it. It's all very odd but I am much happier with the bridge back in its correct postion.
