    [quote name='Angel' timestamp='1412346331' post='2568095'] As mentioned, I used 'liquid masking fluid' (available from art shops). I 'painted' the areas that I wanted showing as wood using a small brush. It's done fairly quickly as the stuff dries onto the brush pretty sharpish! You then spray the body, and lacquer it, and when it is all dry, you rub vigorously over the masked bits with the palm of your hand and it rubs off. This leaves a nice 'rough' edge. Looks best if you darken the wood afterwards. [/quote] Could you use nitromors in the same way ? You should think about doing this on a pro basis Do you mean like Humbrol maskol ?

    Like it How did you get the jagged effect on the painted edge below the controls ?

    This is a tracing using a biro http://i1149.photobucket.com/albums/o600/geek99/bridge%20cover/6357648C-BA98-4C0D-812B-7442929165E0_zpsp9psgdx7.jpg The imperial measurements come from a listing for a fender part, the metric numbers shown alongside are the rough conversions. The arrows on the tracing are measured with a ruler on the tracing so off by a smidge from the metric equivalents shown bottom right. Allowing for a small creeping margin of error they are virtually identical to the fender part so yes I do think it would fit a jazz pass

    no, its way too big for that. Look at where the holes are. It hangs off the back of my p bass look at this jazz bass cover [url="http://www.stringsdirect.co.uk/parts-c4/bridges-tremolos-c252/fender-vintage-ashtray-bridge-cover-for-jazz-bass-in-chrome-p1689/s1731?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=fender-vintage-ashtray-bridge-cover-for-jazz-bass-in-chrome-f0010678000&utm_campaign=product%2Blisting%2Bads&gclid=CIrVwPGPicECFcoBwwodiYUAbw"]http://www.stringsdi...CFcoBwwodiYUAbw[/url] and then look at this one for a p bass (also a genuine fender part) [url="http://www.amazon.com/Fender-Bass-Bridge-Cover-Chrome/dp/B002NM076A"]http://www.amazon.com/Fender-Bass-Bridge-Cover-Chrome/dp/B002NM076A[/url] its much more stubby

    Honour the remaining gigs if they want you to, is my advice. Sounds to me like you're best off out of it. If they gig for a living they need someone else like that

    When we move house I'm going to have a shelf so I can see them all plus the DVDs so much more easily

    heh heh - just wondered as i really struggled to find nice (and realistic) red tort that doesnt cost about £1m does anyone know if relicing is extra ? I did read that sunburst is an issue.
  15. Geek99
    What is clever about the tort ?
  16. Geek99

    [quote name='Bolo' timestamp='1411467980' post='2559743'] It's not any different for a .net (or any other) code monkey. Usually they'll just say 'I'm in i.t.' and people relate 'ooh I have a computer! Fun isn't it.' [/quote] Yep - Java monkeys get this also My computer is running really slow..,,

    Did you meet such a person recently ? Curious what prompted you to post

    well,I take your point that U2 arent really appealing to a seventeen year old but Apple are legally allowed to put it there, unless you actively decline it and/or actively decline any future "gifts", so its not something that any Apple user can reasonably complain about; they agreed to Apple doing this activity. I'm not suggesting it was a masterful stroke, or well judged in any respect by the way, just that they are only doing it because they can, with your prior agreement.

    i think making personal copy has always been legal; i think its distribution, publication, public performance etc thats always been the issue.

    bump
