Jonnyboy Rotten Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 I was thinking what else I could do to my P bass build and it occurred to me that I should fit a bottle opener to the back of the headstock so I can open beers while I am playing. Of course In reality it would be a quirky talking point more than a functional thing as clearly beer and electronics/wood don't mix well! What weird and wonderful things have you thought about sticking on your bass? Quote
Booooooom Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 Embarrassing when someone stops you mid song to open a beer tho! 😉 Quote
ape Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 That's an amazing idea, why didn't I think of that. Erm I covered my entire bass body in bubble wrap for a while if that counts lol Quote
Jonnyboy Rotten Posted April 17, 2014 Author Posted April 17, 2014 Yep it would have to be that Fender one! Quote

SubsonicSimpleton Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 Why not add a dildo so that unappreciative bandmates and audience members can go f**k themselves if they don't like your basslines. Quote

You could even just mod one of the pots to look like a lighter. - a little battery probably wouldn't have enough juice to actually power it for very long. Quote
Horizontalste Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 You only have to look at G&L's of late to see the bottle opener thing has been done! Why G&L, why? Quote
Chris Sharman Posted April 30, 2014 Posted April 30, 2014 I was actually going to fit one of those Fender ones to the side of my amp! Seems Mrs S has other ideas as usual. Quote
Bolo Posted April 30, 2014 Posted April 30, 2014 Didn't Alembic mount an xlr for 12v power to the preamp? That would work for the lighter ^_^ Quote
iiipopes Posted May 31, 2014 Posted May 31, 2014 How about mounting the bottle opener on the side of the amplifier so you can appear to have comraderie with your band mates, and being the bassist, open a beer for the drummer occasionally? Quote
