Hohner "The Jack" Restoration

Great to see it coming back to life.

 

These are such nice basses, they were outstanding for their price point when they came out.

Loving that spray booth, might have to get me one of those.

Trick is to go for the one for tomatoes, it doesn't have any internal shelving. 

 

It's not the sturdiest thing – its ok with the weight of the Hohner, and could probably cope with a body and a neck separately, but it would buckle under the weight of, say, an Ibanez Musician or an Aria SB.

Sigh. So this is what Montana Color call "Fire Engine Red". Oh well, off to buy more paint I guess.

Is that the one you’re doing for Barbie?

Ah that’s it, a fire engine driven by Margot Robbie.

There's always a moment when you look at the paint drying and think "maybe I can make this work?", but no. I can't pull off a hot pink bass.
