lidl e Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 (edited) Lads... I lived in San Francisco in the 90s. It's where i really started playing seriously and collecting. When i moved to london in 2003, i couldn't bring all my basses with me. I sold a bunch, but this fella was one of my first so i left it with a buddy to hold. Well 20+ years later that fella visited me here in Dublin and I asked him if he'd be willing to send this over Im more interested in the bridge than the bass itself. I think it will be perfect for. A project im doing. I bought this at Guitar Centre on the Sunset Strip in LA in the early 90s. Subsequently i got my first fender and put a kahler whammy bridge on this one So please to see it again! Needs a cleaning/oiling and new strings but it does seem to be making bass noises. Possible issue with the High eq pot. Back in the fold...

lidl e Posted June 10 Author Share Posted June 10 What do you think to clean? Go over whole thing with white spirits and then linseed oil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
