    Dark Brown / Dark Red vintage fender thumb rest

    This is getting a bit nit picky on my end but long story short, anyone know where I could find the dark brown / dark red purplish thumb rest like found on 70’s era fender basses? Working on a build and it’s the one detail really throwing it off. This picture is my reference.

    Mini P Bass Thumb Rest

    Hi. Does anyone know of a thumb rest that looks similar to the ones I have but a little smaller? I haven’t drilled an extra hole on the Mini P yet because I don’t think I like the full size thumb rest on it. Thanks.

    Which thumb rest/tug bar position do you thinks looks most appealing?

    I'm considering putting a thumb rest/tug bar on my P bass to make it look a little prettier, I don't otherwise need one for any functional reasons or as an actual thumb rest. I can't really decide whether to put it near the E string side (up), or near the G string side (down). Which side do you...

    Jack Casady Bass Thumb Rest?

    Kinda interested in this bass! I play anchored on either pickup, and the pickup on the JC looks pretty low.. Is it possible to play it anchored, or should i look into a thumb rest? Also, how’s the neck? Chunkier than a P?

    P bass thumb rest between the pickup and the bridge. Let's see 'em.

    I love my P basses. But I play a little hard. For years I gigged basses with bridge pickups. I got used to propping my thumb on the bridge pickup where string tension is a little higher and that works for me. I don't want to hack up my basses and add pickups. But I need a prop where one would...

    Rod-like thumb rest (atlansia)

    Anything like this available after market? or should i just get a rod from a random shop. I was also thinking of a dummy string (you know for that "true" feeling). I'm really annoyed with thumb resting on the pickup + it greatly limits the sounds i can get out of the bass
