    These are the kind i like it..greens! I found more classic tones than with silver ones.

    I'll try Orangedrops on my rick bass, let see how it sounds.

    Thanks for the link Sansan, I was thinking of buying a bulk lot of the PIO caps from Ukraine / Russia, most I found were silver ones, I will order these ones from this link first and see how they sound. Thankyou

    Gold MOP


    Firstly it's been p*ssing down here like crazy and my workshop has never leaked...until now!
    And it leaked on top of my newly stained body, so now I have nice raindrop effects happening. My fault for not getting a sealer coat on quick enough, so looks like more gentle sanding and staining!
    On a positive note I received the Gold MOP that I ordered and thankfully they are a little larger than the original crooked MOTS inlays, so shouldn't have to fill too much. Also have finished sanding the contour in the heal and received some Buffalo Horn blanks to make some nuts with, hopefully I'll have enough to make 8 nuts so plenty for some other builds in progress.
    Now the fun part of pulling off the frets and cutting in the inlays.
