I really like the new pick guard, since I really like the vintage tortoise shell look. I'm surprised you didn't clean up the original, but this decision still was a good one on your end. The end result looked beautiful as always, of course. 私はヴィンテージのカメの殻の外観が本当に好きなので、私は新しいピックガードが本当に好きです。オリジナルを片付けなかったことに驚いていますが、この決定はまだあなたの側で良いものでした。もちろん、最終結果はいつものように美しく見えました。
Greetings from Arizona USA! I enjoy watching you clean up these off brand Japanese guitars, you inspired me to start my own channel kind of like yours.
Great job on this. Under all that "muck" this is a fine looking bass. They nailed the "Fender-burst" finish. Although these were lower end instruments, you've showed what this Fresher brand bass could do.
great job, you saved another one, wher do you find these hidden gems? but why go through all this effort and not level and crown the frets before just polishing them? now all the dents are still there.just more shiny? but again : awesome job.
Great job. It looks new. What I don't understand is why you changed the lid of the electronics. The new one fits the bass better. But the other, knowing your abilities, you could have restored as well. I also don't understand why you didn't plug the holes that are left on the sides of the bridge. You would have covered them with chopsticks and disguised them with paint and polish... Don't you think ?
@@denislechretien Well, I think his work is very good. And the holes that did not cover only serve an aesthetic function. That's why I think it would have been better to cover them. He didn't correct the frets because he didn't need to. Possibly that's why he just polished them. As for the sound of the amplifier, I find it correct. The sound that reaches us on the computer through its video is very relative. To know how it would sound if we were there by his side, listening to him live...
You've already been admonished about WD-40 in electronics. Now, I'd like to type at you about your soldering technique. When solder cools and solidifies it should have a smooth silver like appearance. I saw at least two that were grey and grainy. This is what is known as a cold joint. They will, at some unknowable time in the future, fail. While you are cleaning those pots, use a little IPA and a brush to get all of that old flux off. Use solder braid to get as much of the old solder off as well. As to the rest of the restoration, I have no comment. You are light years ahead of anything I could do.
Distilled White Vinegar will help clean those metal parts. Just soak them for about an hour, then spray a bit of WD-40 on them and give them a good scrub. It will help out alot.
For some of your videos I have questions on products. What do you use to remove stickers and all that? Also, what do you use to remove the paint? Is it just paint stripper?
Stickers are commercially available label removers. The ingredients seem to be xylene and ethylbenzene. Paint thinner is often used to remove paint, but if it is difficult to remove, a commercial paint remover is used. This is a surfactant, according to the ingredients list.
I don't know what it is, but the sound of this bass is really unpleasant to me. Maybe you should try flat wound strings, they might make this instrument sound better.
Out of interest, what do you do with the guitars when you're done? I love people who take guitars that need some love, clean them up and send them back out into battle for the next budding musician to be inspired on.
GR8 GR8 VIDEO, NO DISRESPECT...BUT I DID NOT LIKE THE NEW PİCKGUARD & THE NEW KNOBS...THE ORIGINAL PICKGUARD ( OF COURSE CLEANED AND POLISHED ) AND THE ORIGINAL CONTROL KNOBS ( CLEANED AND SHINED ) WUD BE MUCH BETTER...IN THIS VIDEO, YOU MADE A VINTAGE BASS LOOK LIKE A BRAND NEW ONE; WHICH IS MAYBE A REVOLOUTINARY WAY OF THINKING, BUT ITS NOT FAIR I THINK...A VINTAGE BASS " MUST " LOOK OLD, JUST AS IT IS SHOULD BE....
@@denislechretien OHHH, REALLY ? I THINK YOU REALLY SHOULD MAKE SOME COOL VIDEOS ABOUT THE CHAT WRITING DISCIPLINE AND THE ENGLISH GRAMMAR INSTEAD OF THIS KIND OF BASS FIXING VIDEOS...I WUD PAY YOU NOTHING IF I WAS THE OWNER OF THAT BASS GUITAR...
Sheesh, you'd give a way better impression if you spelled the name of your instrument 'bass'. [Edit: Ok, I just noticed you're Japanese, so mis-translations are completely understandable.]
Really a beautiful bass!!! Made in Japan , worth $900

I like that the model of this bass is called the “Personal Bass” as opposed to a work bass.

Fresher Personal Bass looks amazing.
リペアの技術が高くて尊敬します。
新品のように見えて使いこんだ雰囲気もあり、渋いベースですね!
Great work👌🏻
Great job, new pickguard is cool too. Lovely looking bass..
Another Great Video!
Personal Bass!! I have the same one with the rosewood fingerboard and I love it. Oh fantastic job, by the way, as usual!
With that beautiful wood grain,this bass would look killer in natural with a black pickguard.
Good idea chucking the Antigua pickguard for a dark tortoise.
Re doing my ole P-base, gotta do a refret. Taking my time love you work.
Fresher懐かしいなぁ。自分も同メーカーのギターを持ってました。しかも結構古い時代のロゴですね。
the baaa aounds amazing
i love your videos
Nice job! This one wasn’t in as bad a condition as some of the others you have worked on.
great job, you saved another one, wher do you find these hidden gems? but why go through all this effort and not level and crown the frets before just polishing them? now all the dents are still there.just more shiny? but again : awesome job.
私の中学生時代の初ベース!!買い直したくなりました。
ah, i liked the old faded looking pickguard better. regardless, still another fantastic job. you really made it a Fresher bass (pun intended).
Nice work!😊
Great restoration man as always, but why you changed that pickguard? I really dig antigua finish.
Beautiful 👍
Sou FANÁTICO por contra baixos!!!
E quando aparece aqui NÃO PERCO DE JEITO ALGUM!!!
💥👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💥
🤜🏻Ⓜ️🤛🏻 🤜🏻🇧🇷🤛🏻
Man that looks almost brand you. Great choice on the pickguard
love these videos keep them coming, could you do a flying V up next or a les paul cheers.
That's an Antigua scratch plate. Got the Fender label on the back.
Fresher was a good brand !!!

At 03:15 It actually looked like a one piece body. Of course it wouldn't be, but impressive work from Fresher there.
Bel lavoro
Very relaxing! where do you find all these old/ b-qlty instruments?
Great job
I don't recommend WD-40 for the potentiometer. It dries and accumulate more dust and rust after. I suggest *DeoxIT D100*
wd40 also breaks down the carbon on the wiper. NEVER use wd40 on electronics.
毎回毎回どこで買ってきてるんや😂
仕込みちゃうか?
Excelente bajo!
Fresherとは懐かしい。
Hey! Is it brown or red tortoise pickguard?

I got a new bass...and this time, it's personal 😂
橋の近くに2つの穴を塞ぐ必要がありました。 それらをニスで満たし、それらを砂にします。
De donde sacas tantos instrumentos en mal estado?
Of course it's a genuine 78 fender antigua pickguard
I don't know what it is, but the sound of this bass is really unpleasant to me. Maybe you should try flat wound strings, they might make this instrument sound better.
アッシュのようなセンのような高級ボディに見えてピックアップザクリから現れる90度横向きとなったラワンっぽい木目・・・そしてコントロールキャビで見える積層 合板ボディ最近見ないよねー。
What is the name of the song at 26:32?

Surely he has his own small shop. I would go there on occasion.

Spelled Bass not Base!
I thought I was the only one who noticed

I wouldn’t use WD-40, use electronic contact cleaner

“Bass” not ‘base’. Admire your work, however.

How good is your Japanese! This is not for you, because you noticed. The other round eyes didn’t
*bass - not "base"
*Seriously?* Anybody think that those look anything like actual scrtatches from playing?
bass.....use deoxit in electronics
擦り傷ではなくてシール跡じゃあないですか?
E' ritornato nuovo lo chimeremo lazzaro dal regno dei morti
sell me the pickguard!
i got a 78 antigua bass that needs it bad
Its Bass not Base
ah, a p bass

失礼します。
余計なことかもしれませんが、ネックのマスキングの順番が、逆です。
ネックサイドに貼ってから、指板に貼りましょう。
剥がす時に、楽です。
サイドのマスキングを剥がす動作で、指板のマスキングも一緒に剥がれてきます。
それと、動画の手順ですと、例えばローズやエボニー等の指板の場合、サイドのマスキング(フレット幅の隙間)に入り込んで残った研磨剤で、指板を台無しにしてしまう場合があります。
研磨剤が指板に乗ってしまう事だけは、何としても避けたいところであります。
失礼しました。
