I would use black milliput epoxy putty to fill that. I had success using white milliput to fill a couple of dents that my white thunderbird vintage pro arrived with.

I used to have a purple bass, so I have this one in my spare straps box.

She's Hit — The Birthday Party

Looks like the Teal Perri's strap is a good match for my thunderbird so I'll have to order another. ...I wonder whether matching strap blocks that don't have 'Fender' on them are available.

That reminds me I once ordered a tyre online for my son's car from blackcircles, but made the big mistake to book the fitting at Halfords. Even though we turned up at the appointed time and the tyre had already been delivered, we had to wait three hours for it to be fitted. Other times when I've chosen any other fitter via blackcircles I've been in & out in about twenty minutes.

This is very tasty budget popcorn. 200g for £1.79 at lidl.

Back Stabbers — The O'Jays

of course it counts The thunderbird lives in its case and the blue mustangs live in their gigbags, so I must admit it hasn't occurred to me that the mustang strap might be suitable for the thunderbird as Daphne blue is lighter than Pelham blue, but I'll check it out and if they are a good match I'll have to get another blue Perri's. Looking at your JC makes me think it probably will be a match.

Crash Landing — Jimi Hendrix

I'm Stealing The Towels — Frank Zappa

The stock tuners are the same dimensions/design of the Gotoh G10 set. Another set that use the same design are Hipshot HB10. The £30 Fender Hi Mass bridge will be an easy upgrade if you want a chunkier bridge.

Sweet & Salty is the best popcorn, but the butterkist microwave version is dead to me as it doesn't pop well and tastes weird

That's perfect! I have a similar yellow RightOn with black stripes to go with my yellow bullet mustang guitar with black stripes.

I auditioned for Pete Shelly's band 'Zip' once. It was a few weeks after I'd seen them open for Erasure at the Hammersmith odeon, so when I saw the ad in Melody Maker announcing that Zip were looking for a replacement member I knew exactly who they were. The only problem was that I was a passable bass player but an extremely mediocre guitarist, and they wanted a guitarist. Not to pass up an opportunity though I borrowed my mate's Gibson Les Paul Custom rather than bring my westone and went along. Pete and his bandmate were very gracious, but i don't think they were impressed with my lack of ability on guitar and I didn't get a call back.
