[quote name='Scoop' post='824301' date='Apr 30 2010, 06:39 PM']The first ACG I got has a spalted scottish beech top and a spalted maple board. It's a bit too busy for a lot of people's tastes but I love it to bits.

[quote name='Linus27' post='1260714' date='Jun 8 2011, 08:37 AM']Yes, that is exactly what I'm after but fretless [/quote] They do come fretless don't they?

Oh yeah! Didn't even notice until you pointed it out!

Did you use any chemicals to get the thick finish off or just a lot of sanding?

How long where they out of action for?

Just been doing a bit of reading on the Wal history as I thought the company had stopped making basses, managed to catch myself up on what was going on but also stumbled across this which I found hilarious...

Cheers!

Has anyone got any transcriptions for anything off this album? (Except Power!)

I want one too!

I'm using the sansamp at the minute and loving the tone alothough I would like to upgrade to the version with the extra button as I wanted this one for a boost but end up leaving the pedal on pretty much all the time because the tone is so tasty

Reminds me of my favourite Thumb (which I can't insert the pic of but trust me it looks the same haha) Did you take the original gloss finish off or just primer straight over? Because if that was an option then it would save a lot of sanding!!

Nice one for all the tips, this is a pic of the bass I wanna refin by the way It's one I'm buying off this forum, will be picking it up next month. Anyone got any before and after pics of refins they've done?

[quote name='mart' post='1237013' date='May 19 2011, 03:50 PM']Yep, that's probably true. Although a bass that's "white with a hint of rose" would probably go down very well with the ladeez [/quote] Haha you may have a point! Difficult to get the matched headstock I wanna give it as well haha. So just a LOT of sanding then? For respraing does it matter which type of paint you use?

I'm not too fussy and have no spraying experience, the colour I'm thinking of changing is red into white so if I don't take it all off will it take hundreds of coats of white to make sure it isnt looking pink...

How would I go about stripping a bass? One of the tough ones, not sure what its called, but a colour with a clear coating. Is it chemical, heat, sanding or a mixture of them all? And also how hard is it to get a good looking solid colour put back onto it?

Did you end up putting the fuzz switch in?

As a Warwick player who's recently got his first Fender Jazz, trust me, your going to want both!

Yo!! Let's get some more scousers on the forum!
