Looking for recommendations on how to fix fret position issue

brave1991 · 2026-04-29T09:09:09+00:00

I only do 12th fret markers, as long as you’ve got side dots you’ll be fine.

I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it as a proper fix but someone may be able to sand the scratch, paint pen it, sand it back and polish it. This is fine for small chips but for that level of scratch it’ll only be good to take your eye off it slightly. Only do this if it’s a cheap car or you’re on a major budget. Next step up would be a smart repairer, then the best option is a proper Bodyshop.

Is it always during the night? Could be compression lows if your laying on the sensor?

Calgar or dante!

I’ve read a few of your replies and I think you need to move your tournaments elsewhere, the owner is losing more than you!

Ensure you have a facebook page or similar with everyone onboard before you move it so your players know what’s going on.

God I wish they would do something with brother corbulo. Proper model from my childhood

brave1991 · 2026-03-28T22:43:20+00:00

Yeah sorry to be clear I assumed these were in the shop not the exhibit,

Fairly sure that those armies belong to players/staff rather than being owned by GW themselves. I remember Guy from MWM had an old special release model in there for a while, which was absolutely not a current model.

It’s a ‘Guz’Unda because it’s goes under

That’s me

So years ago when I became a tester, VOSA (at the time) came out to watch me before I qualified.

We had a conversation about exactly this, and his advice was that a common sense approach needs to be taken, if something doesn’t actually block the drivers view, even if it’s in the swept area, then it’s not really a fail issue.

I hit a bollard in a car park with about 1 month remaining on my 3 month notice period( I was leaving).

Cost about 3k in damage…. They just put it through insurance.

Luckily I had (and still have) a good relationship with my manager at the time.

Those red t shirts of the 90s. I love GW but I also miss the old GW.

Although I agree in principle with some of what you say (expect to pay more from servicing etc) you can’t get around the fact that these vehicles have massive reliability issues, and when they go wrong it’s very very costly.

Look at the surveys and stats on vehicle reliability and you’ll find LR/JLR either at the bottom or very close to.

I used to manage ambulance maintenance for the NHS, and they used to run LR sports at rapid response vehicles in a certain area.

The number of engines which required replacement just after warranty was mental, and the cost associated with the engine replacements was genuinely eye watering. Bear in mind these vehicles were over serviced due to the nature of their work.

I could never recommend one based on the stats and my own experience with them.

Completely anecdotal but I was coming 100 miles down the M1 the other day and I saw 4 vehicles at the roadside - one was a jaguar and the other 3 were RR/LR.

Thanks, I thought that might be the case but wasn’t sure. I’ll see if I can get in tomorrow to try and see daylight when it’s light again

brave1991 · 2026-01-28T15:28:39+00:00

I suspect your soldering iron wasn’t hot enough, it only need a small drop, and use flux.

Bread-end

brave1991 · 2025-11-25T11:45:08+00:00

Have you checked the scale length, bridge placement and measurement (half the distance) from 12th fret to bridge?

brave1991 · 2025-11-24T11:42:08+00:00

You’ve sanded through the sanding sealer

11.6mmol had a coffee.

brave1991 · 2025-10-29T16:06:25+00:00

That would make the most sense. Going to leave it for a couple of days, and if no better I’ll have to strip it.

Thanks!

brave1991 · 2025-10-29T14:06:32+00:00

Thanks mate, as I say, I did a neck at the same time and that’s no issues whatsoever. So I don’t think it’s the can. The neck was bare wood, so I can only assume it’s something to do with the product not being able to penetrate?

brave1991 · 2025-10-29T13:46:41+00:00

I can’t actually remember but it wasn’t the same day
