NEVER Epoxy.

Never open up a bass and do half the work to 'see' it it holds. Do the proper sound post patch as it does need it.

Ok Ken I see... I undestand....
1) No epoxy... I wasnt really sure about that at all... but I wanted some feedback from you...
2) Now It needs a sound post patch... I will do it, I will take your advise and do one... now so I get the whole point of your comment... when I face with an sound post crack.. it needs a patch even is the crack is not open... so I think the guy who performed the last repair... that it looks very good by the way... should have done a sound post patch before closing this bass? may the the customer didnt want to pay for that repair.. I being told that is $1000 for a patch... Jesus that a little too much for that
I can see why someone would say no to that ....
well like a said that's for your advise sound post patch is....
