Sheesh, that's a big ask - for all concerned!

Thanks Rich - pls send PayPal 'friend' payment to [email protected] - and a Very Merry Xmas to you!

"That's not too bad - and I'm really pleased how this is starting to look " You and me both bro' (not forgetting Mrs. Scrumpy, who loves it to bits).

Just noticed - without the controls fitted my bass has got a face like this one: I really need to get out more!

Thanks mate - and also to others who've paid. Could still do with a few more pls

Well done Bass Tractor! (What a nice picture of the young Macca btw - even if it doesn't belong in this topic )

Well worth the wait, as you already know Mick . It's like a gripping serial on the telly - you can't wait for the next installment.

Yesssss - that's it, that's EXACTLY IT!! And it's just dark enough to contrast well with the bright hardware. 'Wizard of Osmo' it is then

My Cazpar and Elwood have the best actions I've ever played. I'd suspect that somewhere in its history david1711's bass has been attacked by someone with not much skill and no knowledge of reverse-action truss-rods. My basses came with a little maintenance & care booklet that explained how to adjust the action.

Andy - the 'Wizard of Osmo'

Works a treat!

" However, in real life, it's the Osmo treated version that has the warmth and tone of the original untreated, air-exposed wood." Agreed!

Both equally superb in slightly different ways but I want to stay faithful to the wood's 'natural' state. My wood-cutter mate Merv told me how they used to wipe off the stumps of the trees they'd felled while they were still wet with the rising sap. He reckoned they looked like shiny, natural wood table-tops that had been freshly wax-polished and laid out on the ground. That's the effect I'm after - over to you Andy

That doesn't sound right - as far as I know it's still £7 single, £20 multiple. If this thread doesn't get picked up by a moderator first, drop ped a pm and he'll put you straight.

That's beautiful Andy and just how I wanted it to be - not sure how you knew that as I didn't even know it myself

I was up for it til I saw the 'MADE IN CHINA' bit at the bottom. I've ordered the wig though

Perfect!

Nice work. What next - official coat of arms?

I'm going to rather miss the PT!
