  1. Quick update - After trying to replace the truss rod and breaking the fingerboard, we're back with a new fingerboard and a truss rod with a wheel.
  2. New tuners. Accidentally ordered a 2+2 configuration so only 2 are in at the moment.
  3. Dilemma of the day: knobs. I'm having knobs custom made - I'm planning on purple metallic knobs to compliment the orange. Now, should I go the whole hog and do my pickup covers in the same purple? A full matching set! Knobs are going to be 3D printed by my friend and look like this:
  4. It's so close to Torino Red in photos but it's really orange in person I swear!
  5. Would be! I just didn't want to disturb that nice gold logo so ended up leaving the front of the headstock as is.
  6. Sorry for the lack of updates! The neck has been stripped and refinished - we left the headstock original and just retouched it, but the back has been refinished entirely to a kind of black burst. I'm really vibing it at the moment.
  7. Just checkin' in with some funk for today!
  8. Hi all - I just uploaded my first EP to YouTube. I actually finished this in 2018, but never gave it a proper release outside of the film it was part of. The documentary was all about the Congolese Sapeurs - a much larger story about filming in the Congo is for another time! The soundtrack is a collection of pop, rumba, afrobeat, swing and funk. It sounds like chaos on paper, and it was admittedly too ambitious, but I feel we managed to just about pull it off. Listening now, there's stuff I'd do differently, and mixing choices I'd change, but all the original files are long gone. Anyway, thanks for checking it out + Would love to hear feedback. Cheers!
  9. You mean 12th fret isn't considered upper?!
  10. Please go and check it out, for all our sakes! I still these basses so compelling so I'd love to know.
  11. I didn't make it in time. The guy did manage to sell me a nice Tokai Hard Puncher though. It's cool, but I really wanted to try that Greco.
