Rosewood Ban (Cites 2017)and Air travel

chienpo2007 — Fri, 03 Nov 2017 11:43:17 +0800

With the recent rosewood ban, many guitar (with Rose Wood Fingerboard) are currently ban from exporting from UK/US. They said that it need certifications to prove the wood's origin and whatnot in order to get them out of the country.

Bad news is, it affect us musician as well (Guitar Players). Apparently UK customs requires stacks of paper work in order for you to carry it out of UK airport. Worst Case they confiscate. These are the stories i heard And i'm sure it only happens once or twice this year.

That is the reason why most guitar are not available to order online.

The things is. i have relative is going to UK soon and i like him to buy a bass guitar there and carry it back. So if any of you been traveling to UK and carry ur instrument back. What is is your experience?

PS: the guitar i want only available in UK

Freted to fretless Advice

chienpo2007 — Wed, 01 Nov 2017 18:17:10 +0800

This might sound weird or crazy to people who do not know this but i wanted to transform my old bass into fretless Bass.
My local luthier never heard of this process so he is at lost.
Anyone know anyone who's willing to do It?

Also base on the tutorial on youtube it seems that its pretty easy DIY, however it is not recommended to use wood filler because it does not last long. I don't know how to fill it with venner.
So anyone who has done it pls advice

Pls and Thank you

chienpo2007 — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 21:24:09 +0800

For those who had Toshiba Brand laptops could you pleas3e tell me what do you think of it.

i'm on the market for a laptop and had my eye on the Toshiba Satellite C640D-1004U

i'm kinda worry about the warranty issue since it does not came with OS. ( like giving reason such as "we can't give u warranty because u change the system by installing fake Windows 7")

also what is the satelite tag means???

just tell me what do u think of toshiba laptops or better yet the Toshiba Satellite C640D-1004U itself.

i'm also flexible on other brand as long is under 1.8k if u have recommendation

thnks
