    Refinishing Headstock Help – Waterslide decal and vintage tint clear coat

    I’m hoping someone can help guide me in the right direction with this. I recently picked up a used SBMM Ray34ca bass. Feels and plays great, however, one of the prior owners partially sanded down the headstock, removed the original logo and put on a Musicman Stingray Bass decal. Did a pretty...

    Would this even be a clear coating option?

    Looks simple enough, but would it work for guitar bodies? BnB

    Strong, yet clear bass distortion

    I have an Ibanez PD7, it does the job, it can get pretty distorted and yet it retains a certain clarity (you can hear the string attack and decay, it's not overly smashed like in most fuzzboxes, which I do like by the way but they serve a different purpose) but it's a bit too "modern" sounding...

    Are Fender anodized pickguards always clear coated?

    I bought a new Fender gold anodized guard and was surprised that it was gloss clear coated, plus it had been flexed at the thin part to goes above the neck heel, so there are a bunch of fine cracks in the clear coat that really show up at certain angles. I deglossed it with 0000 steel wool and...

    Clear coat over enamel question

    So my enamel is still curing but I know there are slight imperfections. My concern is that if I try to smooth them out no matter how gently, the enamel's gloss will be diminished and applying the Clear coat over it *might* give the surface a gloss finish, but the underlying enamel will still...

    I need to clear something up.

    I have a Rumble 500v3. The thing is that when I push the OD button I hear a hiss. As I raise the level knob the hiss increases respectively. My question is, is this common to OD's, or do have an issue with mine? Thanks for any insight offered.

    California Clear Picks; old and new logo the same pick?

    I know; trivial but... Normally a finger player but a new project calls for a pick on 4 songs. The California Clear pick with the palm tree work for me (much less bright than any plastic pick I've tried). The new version does not have the palm tree. Are they the same?

    Clear coat to prevent rust?

    So I've noticed that on the pickguard screws near the bridge/pickup, there is a good amount of rust. I bought new screws and was wondering if I spray them with clear coat before I put them on the bass, that will prevent rust on them. Should work fine, right?
