Anyone else have any experience or words of wisdom about removing an "integral bar" and installing a new bass bar? Is there a big difference?
thanks

What, don't you trust me? Can you count on your fingers the number of Luthiers that RUIN basses with bad bass bars or sprung in or integral left in?
Trust me when I tell you that I cannot count the number of basses that have gone thru my hands. Now you just need to do it and/or learn how to. There is no other option as far as repairing the bass and making it right as far as I can see.
If Arnold has time I am sure he will try to explain it. Right now he has to finish the C extension on my big English Bass (Panormo School), pour the top mold for the Storioni and get that bass going and completed this year and then finish one of his basses so he can start the copy bass and finish that as well b4 x-mas. I will be a very very happy man if all goes as planned. .. Then, he can log on and answer questions... lol
Practice practice practice..
