I've tossed my old ESP B-204FM after stripping it of the hardware, and I've still got the case. I'm not sure if the case will fit a whole lot else, it looks versatile, and it's damned nice inside; just wanting to know. The hardware has served me well and the black chrome is hard to find elsewhere.

Anyway, opinions? I might try to sell the stuff and see what I can get for it.

I wonder if the bridge would fit on a Fender?
It looks a lot like a Hipshot..

Yes, it does. I'm pretty sure it's just an ESP bridge, it's string through and the ferrules are beside it, along with the three screws for it. It can also be top loaded like a Hipshot.

Andrew... I'm not sure I'm going. :( Work isn't letting me off, and I've already got the invoice before I could even send in the housing information.

Yeah... it really does. This is my 5th week at work and we just got our permanent schedules Sunday. My days off are today and tomorrow... I'm not off on the weekend at all, and since I'm new I don't have vacation time to take or anything like that. I'll see if I can call Berklee up sometime and see if it's too late to turn in the housing stuff, if not I'll ask again at work.

Why did you chuck the bass?

Why did you chuck the bass?
Defretted it. I started stringing it up and the tension from the flatwounds stripped two of the tuners. They really weren't worth replacing, so I salvaged what I could and threw out the rest.
I've got Jonly and a guy on TB insterested in the bridge and knobs. I'm thinking like $40 for the bridge and knobs, and I could send it out USPS so there'd be no shipping fee, really.

Black crome would go well with the ebony top that you want.

I say keep them just incase you get another bass and you can switch out the hardwar and have a case for it. lol.

But seriously Tryxx, was the whole bass worth throwing out just because of two stripped, $20 (max) tuners?
I wouldn't be able to get the tuners in the black chrome and they wouldn't match, then I'd have to replace all of them, and I thought about getting a Detuner and whatnot, then I got my Warwick anyway... so yeah.
