That's quite a project. Keep us updated on progress.

I defretted an old BC Rich bass of mine and now Im making a new body for it and epoxying the fretboard if somebody has and tips or tricks I might want to know about

Cool. The people in the bass forum are pretty smart and can help you. I never looked much into defretting.

Check out the Lutherie sub forum in bass.

Yeah, my only advice would be to not fu[size=2]c[/size]k up the action.

Nah I've got it under control. I've messed around with basses quite a bit so I think I got it under control. Playing a fretless is verry nice, because it feels so much more natural. Right now the spiky body is retarded looking and uncomfortable and the single P- pickup in the neck position sounds really bad, so I've gotta work on the body

I love playing fretless.

Fretless sounds hard to play.

Only DIY thing i've done lately, is cut/ripped the sleeves off one of my t-shirts.

I have a t-shirt with your avatar on it.

I just patched up a couple huge holes in a backpack of mine with pieces of one my dad's flannel shirts. shhhhh.....

I re-stitched a patch on my bag, and cut the peak off of my peaked beanie then stitched it up with a big needle and wool, cos peaked beanies are lame and I might need something to cover however my hair is at school next year if my admins don't like it.

You guys ever make pants? I want to, I just don't wanna spend cashola on material that I'd end up wasting. Any tips for some really simple pants?

I dunno it can't be too hard. If you have any spare canvas or any cloth you could experiment with making the legs and everything, then just buy some denim or whatever when you think you're ready

If you don't have a sewing machine I would advise against it and instead go to a thrift shop and get a cheap pair there.

I found a shop that sells counterfeit versions of the pants i wear for $10NZD rather than $60NZD for the ones I already have.

I shall be stocking up, soon.

I don't know how much dollars that is..but it sounds like a lot for pants..

just checked..40 bucks..still a lot for pants. Nice find, though! that's crazy!

finally i got my digital camera!

heres my SLM shirt: (first shirt ever, the bottom sucks really bad, because i kept screwing up, i finally free handed it)

Man tell me how easy it is to learn because I've considered it many a time but people have told me it's quite difficult.

I think mine is different than your typical silk screen kit. It says you can use images printed out from your computer and somehow get them onto a screen... I have no idea how to use this yet. :confused:. I think I'll be taking my first attempt sometime tommorow.

Silkscreening is a piece of p[size=2]i[/size]ss, you just need someone to show you firsthand

Is your bass strap made of ducktape?

[QUOTE=yourstruly;13928661]Is your bass strap made of ducktape?[/QUOTE]

hah yeah it is....its crappy but we had band practice like tihs weekend, and i realized i only had one strap, one for hte guitarist, and i needed a strap so i made that one in under 3 minutes haha...but it works..

My friend had one of those. Also, his bass was red, so he used red sharpie to fix little dings in the finish. Then he painted it white all by himself but it looked great.
