  1. With weird 1:1 panto-graph arrangement to follow the existing neck profile and repeat it in reverse on the body?
  2. Mount the body at an angle on the table and use the horizontal arbour (sic) with a fly cutter to cut the curve...
  3. That's a cool looking forearm contour.
  4. Tune your bass? What heresy is this?
  5. No, but if you hum it, I'll punch your face in. To misquote Suggs on The Young Ones.
  6. B to G but on my guitar with the floating locking trem I go outside to in, E,E,A,B,D,G and repeat until it's in tune.
  7. **NOW £400** (Make it go away price) I'm moving to Germany in the middle of Feb. Make me an offer so I don't have to take it with me. Would anyone be interested in buying my PA? It consists of 1x Wharfedale Pro Titan 12 Active speakers 250w RMS. 2x speaker stands 3x Behringer SM58 clone microphones 3x microphone stands 1x drum mic 1x drum mic stand Behringer 1832FX mixer Big bag of XLR cables and sundries. I'm looking for £600 all in, you'll have to collect from nr. Daventry, unless you live not far away and we can meet up to do the swap in a car park like some dodgy gangster film We're moving to Germany in the middle of February, so If you want it buy it before then, or have a road trip to collect it. I'd rather not take it with me.
  8. I bought a Squier Affinity Telecaster from Aidan. Fairly priced, exactly as described and excellently packed and shipped. Aidan was very communicative and fast to respond to questions or with updates. A thoroughly good egg
  9. That was my assumption as well, but it doesn't hurt to get clarification before I make a hash of it.
  10. This process, number 3, is also done wet with Tru-Oil slurry? The same process as grain filler but with finer grades of wet/dry? What sort of wet/dry do you use, the normal car body repair stuff?
  11. Not with teeth marks, but the Herman Li signature Ibanez has finger grooves on the top horn.
  12. Someone remind me when an 'f'hole becomes a Norissole?
  13. Les Paul style pickup selector in the middle of the circle with massive plastic BASS/TREBLE disc and relocate the vol/tone knob?

    Cheers, I'll have a look at those.

    I asked this in Technical and Repairs, but I'll ask here as well, if I get some measurements can someone turn me three oak plugs for some inserts on some bench slats that are in the wrong place?

  17. I don't know much about routers, but with a long follow bit could you use the existing control cavity as the template for the hole in the back and just rout straight through? One for the luthiers I think. I'd just clamp it to the mill and go straight through with an end mill
  18. Get a cheap P-body from eBay, fit a bit of timber as a strengthener over the control cavity and follow andyjr1515's how-to on veneering?
  19. "Do you want to build a sno...bass?" I want to see a snowbass 😛
  20. No, clearly not, what were you thinking you complete numpty.... Metal is cut at a far lower speed than wood. As an example, to put a hole in mild steel you're looking at a drill speed of around 100rpm to start with and adjust a bit if it's struggling. I wouldn't try milling 2mm sheet in any case and certainly not with a router, but then I may like my fingers more than you 😛 Go with @SpondonBassed's suggestion and drill and file it.
  21. Would you get the bass you "want" though? If I had to buy my Fender P V again that's a list price of over £1700.
