Hi,
I recently started playing bass, and have just gotten interested in slap technique. My bass is a carvin LB75F with ebony fingerboard, uncoated. The problem is that I am starting to shred the fingerboard a bit with the pop slap stuff. Someone recommended to me that I have the fingerboard coated with epoxy or something similar, but I was wondering if anyone had an alternative suggestion. I thought maybe a brass block, cut flush with fingerboard and mounted between the bottom of the fingerboard and the upper pickup might absorb some of the abuse? I'd appreciate any advice.
