PaulThePlug Posted July 8, 2020 Posted July 8, 2020 (edited) My £10 Cruiser... (plus £9 for some cheapy machine heads - thanks to Aidan) now in Danish Oil... Edited July 8, 2020 by PaulThePlug 2 Quote
PaulThePlug Posted July 9, 2020 Author Posted July 9, 2020 (edited) Like a cheap P! Then again i only have my Ibby GSR200 to compare it with, and a few months... Action is a little high, with a bit of buzz on the higher frets. I'll take a look at the truss after a few says of sitting after going back together. neck n body is still a little sticky with the danish, but will hopefully dry... wanted it back together. Realistically could of / should of left the red, but i think there is something about a bass (more than a guitar) that make em look nice in natural, simplicity... and something to do... Cheap and not preciouse... Also shows the time involved and what a pro does to do things properly... Rather than me, a screw fix heat gun, woolworths sander, a few grades of gritt and the odd 30 mins while taking a brake from lifes domestics... Edited July 9, 2020 by PaulThePlug Quote
uk_lefty Posted July 10, 2020 Posted July 10, 2020 I think if you'd left it red it would look like a cheap bass, but now there's a bit of mystique about it, keep going with the mods! Quote
rushbo Posted July 10, 2020 Posted July 10, 2020 These are nice instruments. I found one in my local Cash Converters for £25. It was all in bits, but it went together pretty easily and with a set of new, cheapo strings, it sounded decent. Mine was in a rather nice sunburst and I moved it on easily a week or two after I'd re-assembled it. Quote
