velvetkevorkian Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 Not my style but the finish on that is remarkable. Good job! Quote
Ou7shined Posted August 22, 2009 Author Posted August 22, 2009 Bought a Lollar for this. It cleared UK customs yesterday. Can't wait. :brow: Quote
cocco Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Mate that is actually beautiful. I cant believe how good it looks. empressed doesnt cut it at all. Quote
7string Posted November 2, 2009 Posted November 2, 2009 I saw this bass at the Moffat Bassbash yesterday and it looks the proverbial million bucks Congrats again on a great job. Quote
Ou7shined Posted November 3, 2009 Author Posted November 3, 2009 Cheers man. That's a heck of a compliment coming from a guy with a fantastic collection such as yours. Great to meet you again. It was so funny when you were playing the intro to The Chain on NGH's rig. Turned out to be the only bit of F1 action I got on the last race day of the season. Quote
Hutton Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 When I was over at Mark's (7string) yesterday he told me about seeing your bass at the bash and how great it looked. I just had to look at this thread for myself and see what a fantastic job you have done. Congratulations on a very fine looking bass. Quote
KennysFord Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 (edited) Nice one Rich, I did'nt spot this the first time round,she's a bloody stunner !!! Edited November 3, 2009 by kennyrodg Quote
steve Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 I had a go of this at the 'nocturnal pre bash' on the Saturday night of the Moffat BB, it's a very nice bass, and looks stunning in the flesh Quote

[/quote] I think I mentioned that I had the Fender 50's Reissue, stuck a SD pickup in it and it was one of the best basses that I've ever owned! I think it's because I have zero woodworking skills that makes your bass all the more startling. Mind you, I did use a Dremel for the first time last week, so maybe there's hope. The Chain is one of those simple iconic basslines. Add to the fact that there were some monster players there and I didn't want to embarrass myself (especially with such a great sound from NGH's rig!). This has just reminded me to keep an eye out for the "Tone Hammer". Quote
4-string-thing Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 I just stumbled across this thread, it's answered the question I was going to ask, ie, has anybody converted a later P body to a 50's style by filling in the routing and re-routing? I've got a Hohner P from the early 90's thats in bits and I fancy an off white brother or sister for my 70's USA P. This has inspired me to have a go! Quote
Guest BassKS Posted May 4, 2011 Posted May 4, 2011 This job is awesome. I want to paint a Jazz alder Warmoth in Fiesta red... Any tips? at all? should i bother with the gloss on top to make it vintage-ier? Thanks Fatos Quote

It adds depth to your finish and it also allows you to cut it back to a flatter overall finish. I keep meaning to post this pic, so here it is almost 2 years late. Quote
