waynepunkdude Posted August 6, 2010 Posted August 6, 2010 I bought a neck to replace the one on my P bass special but the neck is bit smaller then the pocket, should I just bolt it on? Quote
Platypus Posted August 6, 2010 Posted August 6, 2010 That sounds proper vintage Fender right there Quote
Beedster Posted August 6, 2010 Posted August 6, 2010 Some folks say it makes no difference. Bolt it on, see how it plays mate. If it feels dead, get handy with some veneer C Quote
Bassassin Posted August 7, 2010 Posted August 7, 2010 Ice lolly sticks. You can use the side edges of the pocket to mark a template on each side of the heel & cut & shape bits of lolly stick to fit. Eat the lollies first. Glue 'em on and then use a sanding block to thin them until you get a firm fit. With any luck your scratchplate will cover the tops of the shims when the bass is assembled.

MoonBassAlpha Posted August 8, 2010 Posted August 8, 2010 would you say it's like a clown's pocket? Quote
waynepunkdude Posted August 9, 2010 Author Posted August 9, 2010 Cheers for the help guys but I decided life was too short to be bothering with it so I sold the neck. Quote
