I'm new to this forum but not to the very beautiful line of musical instruments we all love.

I am the second owner of a BSR5MW which I purchased from a player in the Chicago area and had it sent to me in Vail, CO. I was a bit concerned about the difference in relative humidity but a quick call to Ken set those concerns to rest. A spin of the trussrod nut and all is well!

Now it appears that I have been a little careless in my bass handling and have put a couple of very small dents in the wood. I'm not really "****" about this as these things will happen but, is there any way to repair these areas?

Also, what does the "W" at the end of the serial number on the neck mean?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Later, Kirk
There is a way to steam out small dents partially or entirely on Oil/Varnish finished Basses. It's a bit difficult to explain but if you call, we can walk you thru the steps. It may also need some finish touch-up as well.

The 'M' at the end is for the Walnut Top on your Bass which has a matching Back as well.
