    I won't lie, I'm here for two things.
    1) Seeing you taking a good care of instruments.
    2) Seeing what's on your nails.
    And I'm never disappointed.
    Plus, Music Man instruments are one of my favorite. Really great brand.

    I was volunteering in Kyiv for a month, and just before I left the YT algorithm showed me your channel. And of course I was living just five minutes from your shop! I didn't have time to come by this time, but I will be back hopefully in the winter.
    I have shared your channel with a bunch of musicians here, and we are all fast fans :)
    Hopefully I will be back to say hello on my next round of volunteering. Don't change a thing! Your content is ACES!

    I recently bought a LVOV bass. It's from 1982 and the neck is warped to the treble side. Needs refretting too. Just the tiniest frets ever. Very narrow neck, but very chunky on the back. The neck by itself feels like a small baseball bat. It has a valute that creates the V shaped neck. Very different experience than what I'm used to.

      it seems to be from the same bottle she took the thin CA glue from to glue the frets. then she sprayed it after with what looks like CA activator/accelerator. CA glue can work as a finish but I'm not sure how it reacts with different types of finishes. it seems she used this to re-finish the fretboard after sanding the frets flush to the fretboard.

      Not "they": Leo liked that, perfect for a quick neck tilt setup for slappers who wanted a low action at the neck pocket with a straight fretboard, but in 1979 he stopped doing that with the G&Ls. The Jazz Bass and the Stingray were the slappers workehorses at that time (and still today) that's why you won't find that assembly on P basses.
