Been a bit quiet on here but! Got a new guitar recently. It's a Cort KX508MS, fanned fret 8 string with fishman fluence moderns that I shall be using for my project Indebted . Funny story. It came from a reputable shop in the UK but the strings were wrong! Last 3 were the wrong way round!

Full setup, restring, fretboard clean and condition with fret polish and a thorough clean!

So it's been a bit quiet here. I've had a little quiet time with guitar stuff and working on my next single for Indebted, but jumped back into the bass build tonight with some shielding paint (we don't like no humm) the cavities are now prepped ready for the wiring (when I'm at that point). Next is to final sand then seal the grain. Then finish the body and neck.

So ups and downs... had a 3rd part black screw shear on me whilst in the neck... great fun that was. it's out luckily and wasn't as hard as I was expecting. However, the dye is looking nice after a sand back and another coat! Neck done I think. Body next and then if I'm happy I'll get the lacquer out!

What do you think of the colours?

Having a go building a kit Bass Guitar. first time staining and thought I'd share some progress. Don't worry this is the very first stain with a few more coats to go and gonna give this a glossy, maybe satin finish. Who knows, well I do I think. Maybe....

Are any of you lot interested in watching the build come along?

Had this Crafter Jazz bass in recently for a new pot, full setup and deluxe detail clean with a nice fret polish too! This was great fun!

Got this crafter jazz bass in for a full detail clean and setup, with a replacement pot to be installed due to a snapped one.

Bit of TLC on my own 8 String Ibanez a couple months ago. Looking like some more is in order now...
