MichaelDean Posted June 11, 2023 Posted June 11, 2023 (edited) It's so much nicer with the hard edges taken off. Good work! Edited June 11, 2023 by MichaelDean 1 Quote

tauzero Posted June 13, 2023 Posted June 13, 2023 Are the knobs mismatched as well as the machine heads? Could this have been a theme? 😁 Quote
TheGreek Posted June 13, 2023 Author Posted June 13, 2023 I have black knobs on order so that's only a temporary issue. The machine heads were a set of 4x black/silver, 1x gold and 1x silver so not a theme as such. I've swapped out the odd gold for a silver and "matched" the scheme. I'd like to find gold hardware to swap everything out for - bridge included. Quote
TheGreek Posted June 15, 2023 Author Posted June 15, 2023 Took the bass up to my electronics tech, Mal Crawford in Stevenage to have a look at the electronics. I'm pretty sure it's something really simple stopping the bass making any noise. Mal will spot it in no time but will taunt me about it forever... Quote
Andyjr1515 Posted June 17, 2023 Posted June 17, 2023 Only just caught up with this, Mick. That looks great. Good job with the leather! 1 Quote

How much disconnecting did you do to get the body stripped? Just pickups, or jack socket and battery clip too? Quote
TheGreek Posted June 21, 2023 Author Posted June 21, 2023 I'm terrified of electronics so left the loom in place, I didn't realise till quite late in the day that the pickups unplugged. Anything else came off. Quote
TheGreek Posted June 27, 2023 Author Posted June 27, 2023 Waiting for a call from my electronics tech. I think that I may have plugged one or more of the points into the ports the wrong way round so no sound. I bet it's something silly like that. Quote
TheGreek Posted July 7, 2023 Author Posted July 7, 2023 Elementary error is a bit more complicated than first expected so a new Aguilar OB2 Pre going in. Hoping to get it back midweek. Quote
