Here is how to add a no-damage thumb rest to any Fender bass. This one is made from a piece of maple scrap and two SS screws from the hardware store. You can wrap the original screws in tape and store them in the control cavity. Walnut also makes nice thumb rests. Just a few minutes on the belt sander.

I loves me my thumb rests, I never got the hang of using the E string.

I recently set up a new account on Bluehost to set up another website using my simple framework on WordPress. Simple is developing into something far more powerful than I originally intended.

This site is grafted onto an account that is over 10 years old now. After working with the new account a while, I began to see differences between the old and the new. Specifically, the new account was subject to server caching of php pages. This can be quite maddening for a developer, as your changes just don't show up, at least not until the cache gets stale and refreshes.
