One of these?

I've had to remove it to replace side panels on pickups and it's probably the hardest/toughest coating I've come across. If you spray a bass, make sure you never want to remove it. 😁

That's the stuff, black and green box/containers. It would actually be fantastic for speaker cabs but I reckon a cool effect on the right bass.

With all the various amber tints you can get, I think your turmeric rub has the most authentic aged wood varnish look of them all. I wonder how UV fast it is. Have you used it before?

Look up Raptor butt liner, fnar. It's a super heavy duty textured coating designed for pick-up butts. Pretty much indestructible and irremovable, but although it has a very coarse texture the peaks are rounded, not sharp, so it's actually smooth to run your hands over, if that makes sense. Highly textured but semi gloss and tactile rather than matt and rough. Can be applied with a gun or a roller.

Wooly Bully - Sam The Sham

Is She Really Going Out With Him - Joe Jackson

Wow, a dream duo. 😍 Quite possibly Yamaha's best basses, old and new. Come on then, which one's the best? 😁

Ear I Go Again - Archie Bell and The Drells

Suckerpunch - The Wildhearts

Reptilian - NIN

Children - EMF (Mmmm ice cream 😉)

Geordie in Wonderland The Wildhearts

From reading the Warman website I seem to remember that inductance (Henries) is as, or more, useful a measurement as resistance to estimating a pickups tone, but I can't remember why. As far as I'm concerned electricity is witchcraft.

Reverse P pickup. 😉

There's a DeArmond twin single coil pickup, black one just come up on facebook marketplace in Bristol. Comes with a Bass Centre gig bag and Laney 50w amp for £50. If I was closer I'd be grabbing that for a bit of fun. If you're near Bristol, go grab it. 😁

Why do I feel the need to be dressed as batman while playing that? It's definitely cool. 😎

And a sonically non existent but huge visual change of my Variax. Before, After,

A visually subtle but sonically strong change to my BB424X. Before picture (sorry it's blurry). After picture.

Seems fair. 😁

That Smell - Skynyrd

Drain the Blood - The Distillers

Guns of Navarone - The Skatalites

So you've got all the gear... But... oh what's that saying again? 😁 I'm sure you must be better than you're letting on just to have got the gig. Have you gigged on guitar before or is this a first?

I wonder if they do a fretted version for fretless basses. 🤔
