  1. Spalted guitard? Very hard to make an impression on and will take a knock or two well and not even notice it
  2. arent 36" classed as extra long scale ? He'd need to find the actual strings lengths
  3. I've just realised that the bridge doesnt have rear string loading holes and so the whole ferrule thing was pointless. Currently struggling to find time to locate the bridge on the body and drill the holes for it and the neck plate.Need to remember to bring strings in to make sure its all central.
  4. I've used them for years with no issues _ I have also seen Blue - although I have no idea what the difference is.

    BOOKS!

    we'd have to do postage I think, how large/heavy is it ?

    BOOKS!

    I’d like the home brew book where are you located ?
  7. manchester guitar tech says exactly that in his guide; further that one should work on a small area at a time. For this reason I found that a sponge is the perfect tool
  8. not necessarily- it looks fine and fender do have a history of parts-bin builds. He's got concrete proof from Fender its really one of theirs and left the factory like it. I think he's bullet-proof on this one @Grahambythesea fair play to Fender for owning up to the problem.
  9. of course they do. https://www.samash.com/squier-vintage-modified-jazz-bass-fretless-f06608500 https://www.samash.com/bass-guitars-1/fretless-basses/squier-vintage-modified-precision-bass-fretless-f6808500x I'm going to orlando in about a months time, now I've seen the price in USD I'm giving buying one serious thought.
  10. @Grangur I have a mighty mite neck and looking good - very slim If heel adjustment bothers you, why not cut a tool recess like US standards have ? five minutes with a chisel, less with a dremel
  11. You’ll need to mask off quite carefully give some thought to when and where you can spray and the drying time needed
  12. Cheap or value Fender ?
  13. yes agree have GG responded ? its looks lovely but it isn't what you paid for.
  14. I'd certainly be looking for a written statement from them, about its oddities, just in case the OP ever wants to sell
  15. can't be worse than free-hand Not drilling holes till it’s grain filled so the filler doesn’t catch
  16. Some white on sealer- not too happy as a) I should have sanded it smoother and b) I lost control for a moment on the left hand side.
  17. hole drilling gizmo has arrived drill holes straight
  18. all photos will be attached in future, to keep things simple for everyone.
  19. I was not, thank you attached everything to date
  20. i just sprayed a thin white coat, results later
  21. even the pickups look very simlar, twas a nice bass, just a bit soulless
  22. reminds me strongly of an ibanez srx590 that I owned briefly
  23. really very light - I can lift it with one hand - neck dive isnt an issue for me. Cost and look are - needed to be cheap and needed to look different.
