    Looking for a luthier to install side lines on a fretless

    Good idea but I would need something with a finer point. I'm clumsy so my Sharpie lines look like a Marks-A-Lot.

    Filling a screw hole and redrilling/shifting screw hole a tiny amount - best method?

    Can you drill slightly larger holes in the mounting plate and just tweak the plate in tightening?

    Worth re-necking an Affinity J-bass?

    I know you said blocks AND binding but you could get inlay stickers from Jockomo. You can get them on Amazon. They're easy to apply and around $10.

    Guitar Center relisted the busted Jazz Bass that I returned to them... Still in "Excellent" condition, despite someone's name carved in the back.

    I've only had good luck with Guitar Center/Musician's Friend used gear. I recently purchased a Jackenbacker that was listed as great condition for the very low price of $329.00. I sweated the whole time while it was in transit. It was in great condition. I was in shock. Some slight scuff marks...

    Can you date a SM58?

    Shure. However, don't expect anything more than first base on the first date.

    No argument here. That's why it's on top. It all come down to finances.

    I want another bass ..

    I'm jonesing for both. On the top is the Reverend Dub King and the bottom is the Ibanez Artcore AGB200. Both are short scale. I'll probably go with the Ibanez 'cause I like Ibanez and it's about 1/2 the price.

    Short/Medium Scale w/ 1.75” nut?

    I love Ibanez short scale TMB30 necks. They are 41mm or 1.61" at the nut. The difference between my Fender Player Mustang short scale at 1.5" at the nut to the TMB30 neck seems like a mile. It could be the TMB30 is fatter at the nut and not just the width. Very comfortable neck to me, anyway.

    Market Place Scam

    I agree. Knock on wood but I have never had a bad experience with local, in-person transactions through Marketplace.

    Why is Radiohead not as appealing to older people as Pink Floyd?

    I'm 62 and I never got into Pink Floyd. I didn't get into Radiohead until about 5 years.

    Emery Board for Calluses

    I just used an emery board on my middle finger tip of my plucking hand. I assure you, no matter how twisted that last sentence may have sounded, it is completely innocent. OMG, that was just what the doctor ordered. My middle finger tip developed a callus that had a prominence that basically was...
