Re: 1988 330/6 JG - Restoration on a budget
Looks like I'll have to go with the high end microfibre cloths I use on the car then. Nothing cheap and scratchy, the car is black and I've spent hours getting the swirls, 'cobwebbing' and holograms out of the finishjingle_jangle wrote:You want cotton muslin cloth diapers.

Re: 1988 330/6 JG - Restoration on a budget
Pretty soon you'll be able to stand outside your local and play for real pocket change!
lol, If I stood outside my local with a Rickenbacker I'd be mugged within minutes, or freeze to death right now :shock:
A question though, Paul. You talk of diapers being the best for polishing, my local ...

An update. Work is going slowly, I have to take time out to stand at the bar in my local and talk rubbish, but it's going OK so far. The filling of the big scar on the body is nearly done and I've moved onto some of the bits that can be filled with clear nail varnish as well.
The big scar is now ...

Re: 1988 330/6 JG - Restoration on a budget
Paul is right, this thread is all about trying to to the best job I can, but with limited resources, I'll not be using CV or anything fancy.

1988 330/6 JG - Restoration on a budget
After years of being played, with the use of all manner of gauges and types of strings, after being knocked, dropped, generally misused and downright neglected.

Re: Any fans of the band Squire?

Hi Honey, I'm home ...
Couldn't see a more sensible place to put a "Hello, I'm new" post, so here it is.
Hello, I'm new
Well technically not that new as I added my Ric (1988 JG 330/6) to the Register back in 1998, but now I suddenly find myself re-enthused with playing again and I have set about stripping her down to ...

It's probably the fact that the loathsome toad, Simon Cowell, can't get any revenue from the 'advertising'
