What are you using to make a noise? I've used several amps and cabs over the years. But the last two years my noise comes through an Eich T-900 amp. Attachment : image.png It's a very small am...

To find them (and this took me a while!!) 1. Click on the bell icon, top of the page, that normally shows the number of replies/mentions you have. 2. On the next screen, click "my history". 3. That...

I’m thinking, perhaps hollow it out, re-cap it, and add a couple of not-f-holes.

Hi peeps, Just a quick question regarding the most popular scale lengths for acoustic, electric and bass guitars. What are the most popular scale lengths for acoustic, electric and bass guitars? The r...

If you want to just use something to wipe surfaces down with for cleaning and degreasing, use panel wipe/degreaser from car body shop supplies.

Cheers @a-p-p-o ! Also - Always test whatever you intend using on a hidden area first (like under a cover plate)

Its something I've often wondered about, the whole naptha thing. I think its used a lot because it doesnt cause problems on nitro or whatever. If you just want a clean surface to start finishing..mayb...

Thanks Mark and Darren......... Loads of interesting videos out there but always the problem with translation needed with names of chemicals..... That said there is some really dodgy stuff going on -...

I have been watching videos of guitar finishing. The ones from USA often mention Naphtha - used to wipe down wood before finishing - is this white spirit or lighter fluid? Do you only need to use i...

Hi Bill, Naptha seems to be the fraction of crude oil that distills immediately prior to petroleum. There seem to be multiple sources on eBay and Fiddes do a naptha thinners which may be of interest. ...

@marcel Now, if there is one thing you don't need at all on a fretless bass it's a trem. If there is one thing you don't need at all on a fretless bass with a trem, it's strings. 😆

@johnnierox-boo maybe it was just easier and more comfortable for him to play then. Yup - he wasn't the tallest bassist ever!

It reminds me of when I was on one of the courses I did at the Bailey workshop. There was a young man there who was making a fretless bass with a trem on it. Now, if there is one thing you don't need ...

I really can't see any any benefit of a 5-string short scale bass myself. It's different yes, but other than that?

Not sure he was much into string bending though ... @tv1010101 maybe it was just easier and more comfortable for him to play then.

This same question can be applied to multi scale guitars? I've got one of those ... but that's for another discussion, another day!! IIRC, Alan Lancaster - Quo's original bassist back in the early...

for rock'n'roll? @darrenking I think it will be fine Darren, a few of us can continually test them out and report back. You have gone to the trouble of designing and building this thing so, I for one...

@jonhodgson There is a measurable (just not by me!) difference between the theoretical accuracy and the 'real life' accuracy of any CNC machine. All I can do is to ensure that the GCode sent the the c...

@darrenkingYour CNC may let you specify hole positions to the micron, but I'm pretty sure it's not placing them that accurately. Not even a Kern Milling Machine promises that (and it would be pointles...
