0:20 it was a marvellous little innovation to make a hinged cover for the trussrod adjustment nut...

[@LennonLuthierFinagler]

happy bass :)

[@marcellob.8893]

Thanks for the video. Can you tell us what you used to clean the metal?

[@LennonLuthierFinagler]

It's been a little while but, if my memory serves me it was a small dash of WD40 using a mild brush to get into the groves and a kitchen towel and cotton buds to polish... don't forget this might not work on older guitars as WD40 could damage the paint.... test it first...on the frets I used 3,000 grit sand paper and a fret eraser.... I was very found of this guitar. Thanks for the question.

How do I connect the battery on my Ibanez bass guitar?

[@LennonLuthierFinagler]

The battery should be inside a compartment on the back....it pops open...

[@pharsalita]

Hey! Can you remember what size Allen key the truss rod needed? Cheers

[@LennonLuthierFinagler]

Sorry - I didn't make a note of it, but i do know it was a standard size and not a special key.

[@simonsloane3245]

My bass ..which is the same model ..truss rod takes 4.5 mm key

[@mikemccoy9812]

I would not let you work on or touch any of my bass guitars.

[@taylorbrown7791]

im with you, what the fuck was that wirebrush shit?

[@TheSlowik98]

10 seconds in and dude questioned if there was a battery under the truss rod cover lol
