KiOgon Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 (edited) NBD I can’t do whole pictures yet – it’s so black & shiny it shows every bloody grain of dust & then a few more – I’ll get the maid to get her uniform on & give it a good going over with her feather duster – then I’ll clean it up & get some photo’s. Can you guess what it is yet?

John Schoen Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Is it a Roger Waters Precision? The brass nut and lack of truss rod plug make me think it is one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Schoen Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 (edited) Funny, the serial number of mine is only three higher than yours. They must have made the trip across the ocean together. I love the neck on this model; the skinny vintage frets feel so good.

Sweet, I was very pleasantly surprised to find the vintage frets, after reading they had medium jumbos, in fact it was the only thing that stopped me getting one sooner That's the second time today I've found close cousins in the serial number department - my Fenix Jazz is only 278 away from another on here Cheerz, John https://www.dropbox.com/s/cmgk9on58xbfckv/2014-09-18%2013.16.28.jpg?dl=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just waiting/giving it a chance to acclimatise before I start tinkering & fitting some better strings Cheerz, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote]Cheers Andy I've been fiddling a bit, fitted a one hole Ebony thumbrest, tweaked the nut & ordered some Status Hotwire Flats for it, my fingers are not meant for cheese graters, when they come I'll do the final setting up.. then I'll get some better photo's done when it's finished Body shot complete with dust! https://www.dropbox.com/s/cmgk9on58xbfckv/2014-09-18%2013.16.28.jpg?dl=0 Meanwhile/anytime - you're very welcome to give it a go next time you're round Cheerz, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Schoen Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 (edited) It's a lovely bass. All that shiny black paint makes it a bit of a dust display, so I changed the pickguard on mine. I wanted to retain most of the blackness and got this one from Pickguardian.
