    MusicMan S.U.B. Refinish.

    Looks SOOOO good. What type of gun did you end up getting? Just a reg HVLP with a larger tip? Or was there another specialty gun? I would love to try this on my longboards! Thanks

    Soon, no more "custom" Carl Thompson basses?

    Just was browsing his website for the um-tenth time, and noticed a new announcement: "As of February 5th, 2014 (Carl's birthday!) we will not be taking any more "custom orders." Immediately, my heart sank. I have been wanting one of these instruments since I started playing 15 or so years...

    Modulus Mob

    I had my eye on that too :(:( wasnt bidding since I cant swing the dough but I want that bass soo soo bad. I got to play a silver one like 5 years ago and to this day I yearn for one. One of the most comfortable and best sounding basses I've ever played. With the apparent shut down, I wish I...

    For anyone who cares about RHCP and Flea... + the basses he's used for albums.

    Awesome list. Although, in funky monks you can see hes still using the spector in addition to the wal and MM

    1964 Rickenbacker 4001 Restoration - NEED FIREGLOW HELP!

    Also, what is the blue bass in that wall picture, that fingerboard is sexy. Headstock almost looks like a ritter, but the pickups beg to differ

    1964 Rickenbacker 4001 Restoration - NEED FIREGLOW HELP!

    I love rickenbackers!!! I love restorations!!! Subbed! That patch looks fantastic, very nice work. I think with the stain and hardware it will be very hard to notice.

    super glue on finish

    Since it has hardened, I cant imagine there would be much any solvent would do. I would assume the only way to get it off would be to carefully use a razor blade or a sharp wood chisel (my weapon of choice). If the clear coat is hard and smooth there might be a crappy bond and you might be able...

    Refurbishing and upgrading my first bass!

    Thanks! I am fortunate enough that I work as a composites purchaser so the kevlar was a sample from a vendor, the epoxy is leftover free samples from when I helped develop it. The carbon is from scraps left over from some boards I built. The stains I already had too. The only really out of...

    Refurbishing and upgrading my first bass!

    Haha its actually the one I use in the shop. Which is why i opted for the breaking bad costume. Only cost me $5 for the yellow suit haha. Routing and sanding carbon you need the fullface and coveralls. At least with my longboard production methods. Think millions of tiny fiberglass splinters...
