See if your local hospital has a hand clinic … my CTS was fixed in a ten minute wrist op under local anaesthetic

It was your bra

They would, because most people have awesomely good taste v nice btw

My Warwick looked exactly like yours started I just used bras so and they came up beautifully - I bought it for a song on eBay as idiot timed The sale for 5:20pm when everyone used to be stuck in their cars Edit - this was 2010, and I jumped up from my waiting position on the vasectomy operating table to fire in the winning bid with 2s left to go .. seller most impressed at my urge to win - bought 290£ sold £405 after a quick cleanup and new jack socket

Currently playing four year old Warwick reds steel round wounds . They sound okay 👍

Simple stuff but having finally got far enough through the DIY that I’m getting some practice time after a mere four years of slog, with the basses living in a cupboard I’m learning bullet the blue sky and in gods country from the Joshua tree album Both have more variation than I had thought

I’m not a coffee table fan but I disagree in the strongest terms. I’d choose acg just for the resin work alone

Hmm … let’s see maple neck, 20 frets with dots body probably alder with some contours at the forearm one pickup, probably a split coil of some kind, silver knobs - like the look of knurled - maybe volume and tone just to be different Maybe painted in sunburst ? :🤔

You’ll fit right in, mister 👍

I think both are amazing value and quality - can’t go wrong

Well done @Chownybass

Easy to fix - however should not be like that when new just jam a matchstick in there and forget the glue

No, it won’t

I have a couple of jazz bass ones (red and brown) like the one shown above

What bass is it for ?

But you didn’t ask me to help so that’s quite unlikely 🤔

I always liked the pointy ones

Or a new ba… doh !

Yes it’s intended to be a joke, I apologise if you’re upset i just don’t get the GAS thing

So … you … sold it on, right ? Just a wild stab in the dark 😛

It was whilst flattening the top frets that I realised how uneven they actually were the ends are beautifully done but the heights are very variable I put sharpie on again and used the block flat, got down to 2.25 on E at 12th after restringing and reapplying radius I’ll have another go tomorrow thoughts on this ? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Guitar-Fingerboard-Luthier-Tool-Guitar-Fret-Crowning-File-Fret-Leveling-BeaH5G1-/174616181690?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m2548.l6249&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0

I did, yes, the fret rock on the stingray was very slight and I did doubt myself whilst doing it

So I found a two sided rectangular oilstone - half green and half black IIRC I bought it to sharpen chisels - I put a line of sharpie pen on fret 12 of the stingray I used the thin, long side of the oilstone to flatten fret 12 on the stingray just enough to remove the sharpie ink - the bass plays better in that zone trying Andy’s ski jump removal step on the P bass (using wide side of the oil stone) will have to wait until the weekend

I have a lot of time for mr currie’s bass playing; I think he is very underrated

I’m a genius :😇
