Dan Giles is on here - @d_g I believe! Is Nick Richards still on Sax with Nubiyan Twist? Did a couple of gigs with him probably 15 years ago, ace player

Hi again @chris_b I would of responded properly much sooner but I was working away. My reason to change... I felt that the 'P' part pf the originally fitted PJ was string to string uneven - yes, that should be easier to set the pick-up heights etc. but there was definitely an imbalance. I purchased a new P pick-up & removed the old one. On removal, the original 'P' had a wire squashed between the winding & the cover ... which could explain the unbalance. I fitted the new 'P' pick-up & the balance that was missing from the original pick-up was restored. Unfortunately the balance between the new 'P' & the 'J' pick-up is uneven (Doh !) So now I am thinking of fitting a 'matched' PJ set & was requiring info on what sets could be fitted to an active bass, hence the original post. I hope that is clear? Jason

Pete Bruntnell and the Cousins feat. Robbie Macintosh. They played a small pub, it wasn't a well advertised or particularly well attended, they are great musicians though and I think were playing it due to a local connection and general love of playing.

It looks like it'll land at over £1k, which is getting VERY close to Quad Cortex money. Is it comparable? Edit* Actually £899 https://www.andertons.co.uk/darkglass-anagram-bass-workstation/

Scent and flavour are not the same thing when it comes to bleach

Well...

Wow that's quite the markup from £6k 🫢

Knew I’d seen this one before….. Can’t seem to add link so will screenshot.

I quite fancy a Schecter Corsair bass but my inability to find a suitable proper lightweight flightcase that would fit it put me off. Even Schecter couldn't point me in the right direction.

Thanks for this advice, I'd not really checked those things specifically but will do some investigation. 👍

‘Solid wood quality, fine workmanship, quality guarantee, free delivery’. Well, I guess the free delivery statement could actually be true 😂.

Hi there. It could be the footswitch giving up, or it could be that a coupling capacitor is starting to go leaky and is letting DC current pass through. i.e. the pop that you're hearing is actually DC current going into your amp input, and out the speaker, when it should only get the AC current of your instrument signal. If you stomp the pedal on and off several times in a row, does the click/pop lessen? Is it worse when the pedal has just been powered on, and less noticeable after it's been running for a while? If so, it could be a capacitor. If not, the footswitch could be the culprit.

This guy has featured on here before, looks like another cheapy remodelled into a "custom built" bass: Not quite MDP levels of insanity but still a bit off. Would be interesting to get a clearer pic of the neckplate on that black P bass as I can't make out where it was made.
