NancyJohnson Posted January 14 Posted January 14 A couple of years ago I bought a Hamer Cruisebass; it was a second year run and came without a scratchplate...always wanted a scratchplated one. Had a short dialogue with Tim at Gig.Ink, got a scan if a plate from a chap in the USA and got one cut. Arrived today. Before and after vanity shots below. I am so happy. 11 Quote
mikebass456 Posted January 15 Posted January 15 That looks cool - surprising how just adding the scratch plate completely changes the look of the bass 😁🤘 2 Quote
NancyJohnson Posted January 15 Author Posted January 15 I just keep looking at it. These pictures don't do it full justice. Thing of beauty. 2 Quote

For the record, if you need a guard cut, hit Tim up. Great comms, top work! I think he laser cuts on clear acrylic, so you can have pretty much any design you want. Top bloke! 2 Quote
prowla Posted January 31 Posted January 31 Great bloke is Tim; this is my Mustang. He's also done some retail Strat pickguards for Alegree. 3 Quote

Chienmortbb Posted February 5 Posted February 5 I was looking at a new scratch plate for a Peavey I paid £50 for. Seems like I will stick with the white as a £50 scratch plate on a £50 bass? Quote

Congrats on the Peavey, & fully appreciate value is very different to cost - especially with a unique handmade scratchplate - perhaps you could make one yourself? All the best with your search T Quote

All the best with your search T Has it got a scratch plate on it already? There's loads of different types and designs of self adhesive vinyl you can jazz it up with for a couple of quid a roll.......🤔😉👍 Quote
