A slight vibration when I slap the B but that is normal

The Land of Pugs???
![]()
Must be Pugatory.
I think that's a pugshot
But the NEO is the way to go... you have room for one more![]()
just as I said, it is strange: I bought it for myself, but before it was even in town a guy emerged that wants to buy it... I can't step into his path to the world of Lakland greatness, so I thought, why not...maybe it's the karma?
Looks like the wood suppliers for Lakland are behind a lot... Got word that I'll be expecting in December, though!
Same deal for the shortie neck I ordered, the wood supplier was behind.
And speculations on what happens with these wood people? I'm curious!
I have had a bass on order with another company since January and it just got to paint...

INFIDELITY!!!
^^^Yes, I would be interested in hearing this too.
Lol......some of my best buddies are infidels.......OH well.![]()
BTW....HIGH INFIDELITY was a great album! We are doing an REO speed wagon song from that album at our Fall festival....

Isn't REO Speedwagon kind of "racy" for your band...
Get it? SPEEDwagon...

I imagine its as simple as "sand neck with scotch brite, rub in oil", but I largely would like tips from those who have done it. Specifically, how much time did you spend with the scotch bright, and are you just looking to remove the satin finish on the neck...etc.
I've actually done this but minus the orange oil. I just use 1200 grit to break the gloss off of my glossy necks and just left it as is but, I am still curious to hear what others are doing.![]()
I also used 1200 grit. Works great. The neck is smooth as silk.
Many years ago a guitar tech turned me on to using slide & valve oil.
It is a super fine oil made for lubricating trombone and trumpet valves. It's great because it wipes off dry and will not attract dirt or get gummy.
It also works wonders for conditioning rosewood and ebony fingerboards.
