I have a room full of them.

[quote name='dlloyd' post='859376' date='Jun 6 2010, 09:57 PM']A trick that might prevent the bleed through is to spray with the base colour again after you've taped it... that should seal the edge and any bleed through will be the right colour... or am I missing something?[/quote] That's a good shout, I'll try that next time.

[quote name='steve-soar' post='859162' date='Jun 6 2010, 07:07 PM']The Suns are in the wrong places. The body one needs to be on the lower horn, as your arm will be covering it while playing and the headstock needs to be at the E string tuning peg hole. Now rub it down and start again.[/quote] As you say boss.

[quote name='waynepunkdude' post='846060' date='May 23 2010, 09:42 PM']Plays pretty nice too, might be worth doing it on a Yamaha I have laying about.[/quote] Sorry I went ahead and did it.

[quote name='Clarky' post='858850' date='Jun 6 2010, 01:16 PM']Would look great as a re-fin in sunburst Seriously, thats a really nice job you've dome there Wayne - you obviously have a talent and should start doing this as a money-making sideline[/quote] Ah Sunburst my fave, cheers dude. [quote name='Lylodile' post='858873' date='Jun 6 2010, 01:45 PM']The only instance where a clear scratchplate is justified . Great work dude![/quote] I was going to paint the original plate but though this would look better. [quote name='ahpook' post='858875' date='Jun 6 2010, 01:49 PM']hey - tidy bit of work there...admittedly not to my taste (it's not black !), but good stuff.... so which bass is currently quivering with fear in case you get bored ? [/quote] I have a Yamaha that is getting the red treatment soon. [quote name='JackLondon' post='858902' date='Jun 6 2010, 02:35 PM']Wayne I reckon you should get a custom plate with LEDs in it for aurora project. It would look cool [/quote] LEDs would be awesome.

[quote name='BurritoBass' post='858714' date='Jun 6 2010, 11:03 AM']Nope, 'fraid not. As said I got myself sorted out but it's still annoying that it became one of the increasingly common packages that Royal Mail didn't fancy delivering[/quote] Indeed I have to follow it up. On brighter news FINISHED!!!!!

[quote name='BurritoBass' post='858706' date='Jun 6 2010, 10:56 AM']Looking good Wayne[/quote] Cheers man, should really sort out my photography though. Any knobs yet?

So close

Getting there horrid pics though, will get better pics up tomorrow.

[quote name='Soloshchenko' post='858317' date='Jun 5 2010, 04:45 PM']Drop it and you're totally f**ked though. I had an old Ibanez guitar made of this stuff, dropped it and the body basically shattered![/quote] Better invest in some strap locks then.

Have you got a mute button?

[quote name='tom1946' post='858271' date='Jun 5 2010, 03:55 PM']I think the whole thing's a red Herring [/quote] Nah it's a black Jag.

SUMMER

Weird, I have a DTR2000 and I have had the 1000, they are fantastic and I thought industry standard.

[quote name='silddx' post='857767' date='Jun 4 2010, 10:31 PM']Awful awful awful! Fabulous fabulous fabulous! Hate it hate it hate it! Love it love it love it![/quote] /thread.

Graphics done Hardware cleaned Scratchplate made Fingerboard cleaned Neck sanded Just need to paint the headstock then put it all back together.

[quote name='urbanx' post='857360' date='Jun 4 2010, 03:22 PM']All days long peoples ask me about my website “Comparesthefender.com” I tells them Simples, look at the shoddy mongoose build quality of replikas! Sure it may looooook like real Jaguars, but where is your pre-amp - eaten by fleas? Only one place to by originals Fenders, simples! [/quote] I have a few Fender Jazz basses but when I sit down to play I always pick up the VMJ. I think judging the quality before it's even been made is a little presumptuous. A decal doesn't make a bass.

I've made a scratchplate.

[quote name='OldGit' post='856842' date='Jun 4 2010, 08:57 AM'][dons natty checked punk anorak] Jazzes started 1962 with stack pots and ended with the three knob configuration. Nuf said. [removes natty check punk anorak][/quote] Haha cheers mate, I didn't know that.
