Paul_C Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 [quote name='Kongo' post='483836' date='May 9 2009, 04:51 PM']Has anyone here made and fit a scratcplate to a bass that doesn't have one? I'm interested in doing this. I think Scratchplates add that bit of contrast to a bass.[/quote] I made and fitted one to a guitar .. I'm responsible for the knobs too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingforaday Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 yeah the pedulla rapture is probably my favourite or as a cheaper alternative my TBC bass: the wooden scratchplate on that is blatantly an idea borrowed from the pedulla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
