Total Watts

  1. I've EB Cobalts on all my 35 (& 34). Just suit me. My fingers turn black with nickels. G.
  2. I'm in Wishaw. If you are near-ish, I could have a look at it. p.s. I note the nut is not fully located to the bottom of the slot. Personally, I'd get back in touch with the vendor & get a replacement. G.
  3. One annoyance is the fact that double action truss rods are still being made with brass nuts. Why? If someone ruins the soft metal nut, then, basically, your whole guitar/bass neck is a total loss. This happened to me with a Peavey I had. Nut was well mangled when I got it. I didn't know it was a 2-way. Modern truss rod nuts need to be made from hard metal since they are non-replaceable.
  4. Welcome to the spectrum, Mate and congrats on finding a bass that gives you joy. Health to play it. G.
  5. Recently played a Lakland, a Sadowsky and a Sandberg. The Sandberg stood above the others (for me).
  6. I might have some spare in the cupboard. Be tomorrow (Sunday) before I can check. This is the stuff that glows in the dark when exposed to UV light - right?
  7. I have Cobalt Flats on everything now, so problem doesn't arise, but thanks for suggestion.
  8. Yes, my fingers turn black while playing nickel. No lesions as yet, but stick to SS and cobalt now.
  9. I've one of these - apart from my (real) Overwater Fretless. It's my go-to bass, always at hand. Bought from GuitarGuitar in Glasgow for Not A Lot. Highly recommend - if seen, try it!
  10. This post cannot be displayed because it is in a forum which requires at least 1 post to view.
  11. You should maybe talk to Jon Shuker too.
