I'd be interested in a bass

They all look incredibly great! Yet so different. The natural looks way better than I'd imagine.

Awesomeness! Congrats on scoring a gorgeous instrument.

Okay found it on the mobile version. Sent message, after some figuring translations. : o

I can't read any of that. Email?

If available and feasible I'd grab it. But I'm US Illinois, 60101

I'd pay $200 in the blink of an eye. This is Europe though?

I picked up the Zymol. Great for clean/newer guitars. Not so keen on it's performance on the old gunky guitars. Though it made it look better on an early 70's Gibson, it didn't look right, and I'm sure it didn't clean it so much as, kind of mask what was needed to be removed. If that makes any sense. Just didn't look right. Those old guitars look 'odd' with that kind of oily gloss for lack of a better term. There is coconut oil, or something in it. Have to look at the label again. I want to try the Virtuoso cleaner and see how that would work. dave

That's kool.

I hear ya Jay. Trying to take the easy way. I suppose it's inevitable. Always nice to break it down to buff, and clean it right.

sometimes. If the Lacquer has been subjected to less Lacquer freindly polishes, it will soften the lacquer, making it feel sticky, etc. see below \/ This is what happens when you buy a used guitar. what its past, is unknown. So, to get past the cloudiness, and fogginess from naphtha, switch over to a cleaner (like virtuoso, etc.?), and rub, rub, rub your ass off til it clears up? Is there not an easier way? Pleez, I hope there would be.

Same here. Lots of bass playing the past several years, and now guitars with .009's feel like ukeleles and wet spaghetti! Prefer .011's lately big time!

Why's it seem whenever I use naphtha on these older guitars, they get foggy on me? They end up looking worse! I have to rub that shit out with a Mcguires/Mothers cleaner forever it seems. I assume the naphtha is loosening up years of 'furniture polish' that should never have been put on it for decades?!! Figured naphtha would work more effortlessly. Please confirm/clarify.

I have the same finish on my bass, and made an offer awhile back. Thought the ask was too high.

Wow, interesting stuff this week with WBPS#5, and then PAUL HAMER with a NEW GUITAR DESIGN!!!. How cool is that? Thanks L Nutter for posting photos. Raised On Radio wants to recruit you when we do some Rush! We never played that before. Hope to get some video up soon. Stay tuned!
