Jonesy Posted Wednesday at 16:29 Posted Wednesday at 16:29 I'm fairly sure it's a Sb1000 anyway, it definitely fretless 😂 So, it's not really a new bass day. It's more like I've become it's custodian since the owner picked up a Tony Franklin fretless. So it's mine to enjoy for the time being, and enjoying it I have been. The neck is lovely and fairly straight all the way down (as in little taper to it), it's really resonant unplugged and sounds great. Speaking of sounds, I'm still getting used to the circuitry and all of the tone shaping options, which are almost as alien to me as not having frets. I have to play it with headphones for the time being just to save the house hearing my bum notes. 10 Quote
Jonesy Posted Wednesday at 18:09 Author Posted Wednesday at 18:09 Just out of interest to anyone with a brass bridge......... have you ever had a go at removing the green oxidation from hardware? I'll have to check with the owner first and don't want to make it too shiny, but it is a bit grubby Quote

Many moons ago I took mine off and polished it with Brasso. Looked awesome! 1 Quote
