    Hey, Haven’t been in here in a bit, but going through something and you know the deal. So, this is a body and neck from B.Hefner. The neck is a J-bass width nut, has a great feel. Body is alder, forearm contour put on at time of paint. Body was painted by Ben Bruton, of Bruton Guitars...

    Would refinishing be a crime?

    Is it MIK? I would pop the neck off and make sure it isn't plywood. Even if it is solid wood, it was painted for a reason. Usually the wood isn't as nice and it might be several pieces glued together that don't match so well.

    What's the weirdest single feature you've ever seen on a bass?

    I once saw a 70 something P bass with tremolo, that wasn’t to weird, but they tried to install a locking nut. It didn’t seem to work out so well.

    I just thought this was funny

    True, if it was really punk 3 of the 10s would work, and someone would have cut a big hole for a 15”

    Combo amps

    I felt the same way. The Rumble does have a great sounding OD. Wish Fender made a pedal form of it.

    Combo amps

    Combos have come along way from the TKO 150. I owned one, back in the day, it was a back breaker. I had a Markbass CMD112 and liked it. It was light, had a good sound and small foot print. I even loaned it out a few times, to friends. They didn’t have any issues cutting through. I regret...

    State of your local music STORE?

    I live near "The Worlds Largest Music Store", the Great House of Guitars. Back, about 20 years ago, it was the place to go. They had a pretty big selection of new stuff and used stuff. But, even they seem to be feeling the hurt of online shopping. Their selection of basses is decent, but not...

    Chrome Jazz Bass Pickguard

    You could look for a machine shop with a waterjet, they could cut one out of stainless with a mirror finish. The material, if you bought it, would be about $25. All they have to do is find a jazz bass pickguard online, import it into their CAM software and that would be it. The set up time...
