So, I just bought this

http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=181771992781&globalID=EBAY-GB

I'm not collecting it for a couple of days yet so closer inspection is needed

I'm intending in kicking a new lease of life into this bass, stripping body back, filling any dents etc etc and respraying black

I'm intending on spraying the headstock black also to cover the damage there

My first two questions be these......

Does anybody know where I can get a good fitting (from experience) pickguard for these guitars? I'm thinking 3 ply b/w/b.....

Also, does anybody know if / where I might be able to source a "white" OLP waterslide decal, basically an OLP decal that would look decent on a black background

Many thanks in advance folks

Hi Donslow,

weird, I have 3 (!) Red tortoiseshell, Black and White. They are all 3 layer 7 screw.

My OLP body is in the garage so I just need to check / verify tomorrow and let you know that they fit straight on. The white one (old pic) has a cutout for the truss rod bolt so maybe yours need that slot adding .

Cheers .. Hughie
