lollington Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 I'm looking for a new scratchplace for a SR5. Its a 2008 model, single pickup. [url="http://http://www.wdmusic.co.uk/product/STINGRAY_BASS_5_STRING_-_WHITE_PEARL_STGB-5428"]Like this.[/url] This doesn't seem to have the screw tabs cut out for the pickup, so I'm not sure it will fit. I'm not too keen on the price either, seems a little high, or is this the case with scratchplates? A couple of places that I've phoned have said that they can make one if I send them a stencil. Anyone know somewhere I can buy online? Ta Quote
soopercrip Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 Bass doc will probably make you one made mine for my 4 string (pics on his feedback) does an excellent job at a realistic price Andy Quote
acidbass Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 Have you tried the Aurora Project? I was in touch with them recently about a replacement Precision Bass pickguard, and they said they have over 70 templates for the Precision Bass alone! I'd reckon they've probably seen a guard like yours before, so maybe shoot them an email and they should be able to sort you out. Quote
martthebass Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 Cheapest and most likely to fit.....contact the distributor 'strings and things' Quote

In the process of doing this with my SR4 as well. Only costing me £17.50 as well which is pretty good Quote

Randy_Marsh Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 Just spoke to Nick about my scratchplate. Took two seconds on the phone, and he was a bloody nice bloke to boot. Should be with me on Thursday Quote
