For those of you that didn’t know, we do carry tools<\/a> (the Bass Player Tech Kit on that page in particular is quite nice to have.) However, from the recent survey we sent out, a few of you said you wanted us to carry more tools other than what’s listed there.<\/p>\n

Understanding tool categories<\/h3>\n

There are in fact several tool categories. Listing them all would make for a huge list, but here are a few of the biggies.<\/p>\n

Electronics tools<\/strong> – An example of this would be the Batt-O-Meter battery tester<\/a> we carry.<\/p>\n

Finishing tools<\/strong> – Examples of this would be tools for buffing, touch-up repair, glues and so on.<\/p>\n

Fretting tools<\/strong> – This includes measuring tools (ex: radius tools,) abrasives, pullers, presses, saws, crowning, wood treatment solution\/stains, and so on.<\/p>\n

Tuning machine tools<\/strong> – This one includes drivers, drill bits, reamers (for widening pegboard holes,) nutdrivers, and other items that assist with tuner installation.<\/p>\n

Sanding tools<\/strong> – This includes sandpaper of multiple grit levels, radius blocks, levelers, sanding discs, and so on.<\/p>\n

The Big Question for you is…<\/h3>\n

Which tools would you like to see us carry to help you build your bass?<\/p>\n

Now that you have a general idea of what tool categories are out there, what could we carry that would help you out? Are you dressing a neck? Installing new tuners? Doing touch-ups to a finish or two?<\/p>\n

Or is there another type of tool category you’d like to see that isn’t listed above?<\/p>\n

Let us know what you would like by posting a comment or two.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
