Mr. Foxen Posted August 13, 2011 Author Share Posted August 13, 2011 Looks like a hard blow will sort the stripping, the refin might be a bit harder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Jack Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 (edited) What is it about these old Ned Callans that leaves them in such a state? Here's the one I had a year back: [url="http://s1128.photobucket.com/albums/m496/h4ppyjack/Ned%20Callan%201970s%20SOLD/"]http://s1128.photobucket.com/albums/m496/h...201970s%20SOLD/[/url] Edited August 14, 2011 by Happy Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul S Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 HJ - how heavy are these? I suspect extremely, as they are mahogany... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Jack Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Not too bad, actually. It's not a particularly big or thick body. Mine was in the 9lb - 9.5lb range, so no different from most P-basses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul S Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 He just upped his start price to £150 from £50. I imagine 9/10 of the people watching will be dropping out now, including me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
