I wasn't sure what topic to put this in but yeah i eventually came to this one. ANYWAY!

A mate of mine was using my bass as he put it down he slipped and chipped a little bit off the bottom. Its small but yeah. Does anyone know whats the retail price to fix something like this (Australian dollars)? or how to fix it cheaply:P Well its incredibly small..but still.

Heres a picture:

ALSO does anyone know how long it would take to fix?
Cheers, Ben.

Better place would be in setup and REPAIR for this thread BUT my answer to the post is why does he need it fixed? Sure it sucks, but it's not effecting the tone or playability right!

little bits of road rash add character to an instrument - it's not effecting the sound/playability... let 'er roll! Or like Nick said, Sharpie it up!

Fingernail polish. Auto touch up paint in the little bottles with the brush in the cap.
