Monckyman Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Hello all. I have an SX Jazz neck that I really like the feel of but the Khaki coloured laquer is putting me off putting it on a bass I want to use live. So, I`ve already rubbed down a bit of the head and neck and it`s a nice Maple under all that laquer. But, I`m worried about how effectivelt I can remove the stuff on the actual fretboard. Woud I be right in thinking a purpose made block for wrapping sandpaper aruond might suit best? Ideas gratefully received. MM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawrenceH Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 If sanding proves tricky I'd try a sharp scalpel, and perhaps some heat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Vader Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Those guys over at talkbass had a thread about some orange stripper that works really well on SX necks. Citristrip? Or something like that. have a look over there, and see if youc an get it over here.

Monckyman Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 (edited) Ta Dave. Good thread, but unfortunately I can`t find Citristip in the UK so I may go for a Nitromoors type gel. Edited February 1, 2012 by Monckyman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
