Hello Gary.
Never done this kinda thing before.
How would a man know which was the volume and which tone before invariably putting them in the wrong way, 1st time.
Do the actual 2 parts with the 4 poles have to go in in a specific orientation?

Karl. Will pm you in a bit, just trying to juggle with Bass Chatting and cooking a roast and my wife is right, I'm not good at multi tasking
Looks like this is now sold anyway.

The neck releif seems bob on it was a bit buzzy up on the 19th fret but that adjusted out. i think a shim it is then. any recommended materials ?

Card is often used and is generally fine, even better though, is a wood veneer or any sort of material that won't compress.
This is what I use:

Not here yet. It left Wal on monday. But now I get to play the waiting game on how long it takes to get thru US customs. My last one in June took 8 days to get thru.

So long as it gets there safe and sound, it's going to be worth the wait

Yes, BRX, many thanks for the helpful observations.

No sitting on the fence with his opinion, was there mate?
So happy to be the owner of a Wal once again.
An 81 Custom, in fine shape

I don't need the pups, but I do need the loom. But I don't see it would be in your interest to split it.

Well pm me an offer and I can make a decision.
Depends on the attic. If it's the type that Bartelby mentioned, then for me it's a no no, whether cased or not.
Somewhere with reasonably consistent temperature and just as importantly, consistent humidity, is where I want my instruments stored.
I've worked on a couple of Westfields and was impressed with the quality, particularly given its price point. Frets were good. Hardware was adequate. Wiring and pots were the weak point in my opinion but easily remedied.
