Budget?.. Son has a Behringer 'Bang-4-Buck' XM8500, reasonable, was purchased mainly for use with the Boss Vocoder

When The Levee Breaks - Led Zep

EHX Zoom B1on

No, but this little Joyo Iron Man set up in a diddy case is pleasing...

I'd have a look at the Harley Benton Kits, lots of praise for the Harley B... Rosewell Pups? This looks a bit of fun! https://harleybenton.com/product/electric-guitar-kit-square/

Maybe a Curve Back, Hi Mass type that hide the ball ends, Gyker or some-such from Ali Express?

Nice... but, those mono rail saddles make my teeth itch.

Bang for Buck - Behringer Bass Chorus or Ultra Bass Chorus

Dogs of War - Pink Floyd

Loves an SR... a strip of masking tape along each edge can't be that arduous. I don't mind a lighter Rosewood, Pau Ferro etc - more woody than a dark fretboard - all the dark fretboards just look the same.

Ergonomics for sure... the forearm and belly cuts. Then he had a bit of a wobble with the Jazz Shaping and those Single Coils again! I have a Harley Benton PB50 modder and myopia - saved a bundle!

Whats local on facebook?... an Orange Crush, Baby Rumble...

SR Toner Rider Wearing P

Nice... match ya nail varnish

Maybe the Nux Plexi, or Joyo British Sound for Marshall Mids

Bi Carb - sprinkle liberally then leave for 24 - 48 hrs, then vacuum out Bi Carb should absorb the damp and associated smell.

Rear Route... Nice - look forward to your build thread.

GigInk over on faceach Rickenfakers

Here ya go Post a pic of the body, better still start a thread in the build diaries

Nice Post... I likes an oil finnish. Satisfying to apply without that spray faff There is a most splendid post on the very same by our @Andyjr1515 I'll do a search and link it. First couple i did was Screw Fix Danish Oil. Can stay quite tacky for a while, so slow progress. Tru-Oil is much easier to apply, less mess, and gives a much better feel especially with a bit of beeswax and a buff after. This body mod 'n Tru-oil on this SR300 thanks to @Andyjr1515 And an SR500 i sanded down, till i got fed up with sanding... then applied a few coats of Tru-Oil with one of those green scourers, then some wax Oh, and a Harley Benton... And a T-Bird Oiled wood finish, Passive, Rear Route... You get the idea...

I'd like a Harley Benton HB50... https://www.thomann.co.uk/harley_benton_hb_50_vintage_orange.htm with Flats... https://www.thomann.co.uk/harley_benton_hqs_bass_45_100_flatwound.htm £225...

The Ballad of Dwight Fry - Alice Cooper
