Coffee -> splutter -> new kind of screensaver

Buy jewellers files on the bay. They work for bass also

Because they can’t cope with you relentlessly banging on the door all day screaming “I need a hit, man, deal me sum dat BB414 … I need a (insert colour de jour here) one” and now they have PTSD?

True but you do have a revolving front door and stick a deli counter ticket to each bass. Also some of them have whispered to me about the post-it note you keep on your desk with the opening hours for cash converters on it - they find it a touch intimidating

Yes, to the marketplace … 😛

Not saying it …. NOT saying it …

Greg’s bass shed gets my vote @greghagger

For the dubious privilege of them picking a neck off a different shelf ? They used to allow jazz bass profile necks to be ordered

When I reliced my bass I left everything metal well alone

They might be able to signpost you to replacements. @Reggaebass seems to remember the same event as me

Glue and pressure ? @Andyjr1515

I’ve never understood why someone selling or owning a 700£ bass from new wouldn’t think of putting a smear of Vaseline on those threads; I recall ages ago someone from limelight saying here at BC that screws seizing was an effect of the relic process. Why not unscrew the intonation screws or grub screws a bit when it’s freshly done and put some Vaseline on ? That’s a whole five minutes spent

That plate is def after market based on the pattern and it’s fit to the bass (very poor fit around lower horn) and I think the burst looks a bit odd the action looks very high - my guess would be that it’s a decent bitsa - not even a whole Mex

Seriously - back door Santa ?

Guy on far right is very much too blond

That they need big socks ?

Well, he could be forgiven for thinki… DOH!

Thanks - very much an old style of playing glad I put some of that on my relic p

It’s got that weird middle top rubout on the sunburst where your hands etc never touch - how does that wear occur?

Tsk tsk - now that’s offensive blah blah …

My 0.02 is that women are generally less strong but I’d never call them weaker tal wilkemfield is only normal sized but manages a whole gig on a full sized bass and good luck to her. AC is possibly not intending his comment to be taken generally but perhaps specifically with regard to his context of an all-male band?

Post pictures - that kind of renovation happens all the time here
