I hereby declare this thread open for everybody who wants to write everything on tugbars and thumbrests they know. Have fun!

Hi! Don't get me wrong, this has helped me a lot. Thank you. But this thread also shows the whole irony of forum posts. I asked a simple question. I got a simple answer from one member. Meanwhile, this has evolved into a discussion on many different sorts of things. what is a tug bar? You can...

I just wanted to know wether such a thing existed.

I knew somebody would write that. Would you please care to read my question?

NOBODY said they had.

Hi everyone. This is sort of a geeky question: Have you ever seen an early 70s Precision Bass with an original black pickguard and the tugbar below the strings? Or was it all-white-and-tortoise and they started making black ones only after the had moved the tugbar above the strings? I can't find...

Thanks for your answers. As you rightly assumed, I am averse to confrontation. I don't know this guy. He has put a lot of time and effort into this project. But it's clearly not what I ordered and I don't think I will ever get used to how it looks. When we first discussed the build I made it...
