tim_ado Posted March 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 hey every one thanks for looking at my bass and stuff it went in for spraying last week with my uncle who ive been told is one of the best wood finishers in the country so i should be getting it back in a few week and ive got all the parts but some knobs i still havnt decided on the wooden or metal yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oz tradie Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 Congrats on the build so far Tim. You should pick your uncles brains for advice and tips/techniques with spraying. If he's that great, it'd be a shame to pass on an opportunity such as this. Looking forward to seeing the finished work of art. cheers, Stu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maurits Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 Looks good, just make sure you don't rip open your hand on those saddle adjustment screws sticking out. Might have missed it, but how did you secure the back cover? Magnets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim_ado Posted April 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 haha yeah i gotta tighten them up nar the back play clips in nicly and then i put an "extentor" piece on the back of one of the pots un-screw it a bit and it pops out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
