[quote name='Donnyboy' timestamp='1440765918' post='2853655'] I've now received my Kahuna Ukulele bass , and my initial thoughts are that there's nothing much wrong with it as far as I can see/hear , but then I've never had a Uke bass before! [/quote] I wondered who got to that before me Hope it's a good'un!

This is the sort of thing I was getting at here: http://basschat.co.uk/topic/268462-a-modders-database-feeler/page__pid__2853386#entry2853386 Neck radius is the fingerboard curvature, I am sure. I've seen profiles online, but they aren't necessarily useful to the inexperienced player.

[quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1440743590' post='2853386'] Great idea. Hohner B bass has a set neck... [/quote] Thanks My B Bass B doesn't... possibly I am not aware of the Hohner range.

[quote name='howdenspur' timestamp='1440755311' post='2853497'] I recall someone in the BC community (can't remember who) saying something like "if you're going to play in a worship group, do it for spiritual reasons rather than musical ones, otherwise you'll be conflicted". Having said that, I'm with the OP on this. "Community" also means asking " would it be OK if...?" or "do you think it would work if...?". Not just turning up! [/quote] Indeed.

Delta Five, IIRC.

I've gone the wood route a couple of times. Make sure you let it dry [u]thoroughly[/u] before re-drilling

[quote name='landwomble' timestamp='1433920303' post='2795001'] I've tried an E Bow on a bass and it didn't have enough power to work so I do think you'd need to turn up the amplification. [/quote] When I knew where it was, I had a bass-eBow. That was useless on one setting but worked fine on the other.

A Stanley blade definitely won't do it, and you risk both your own fingers and the finish of the bass..

Hmm. I wonder how many Peaveys I should have before this becomes an essential purchase?

Interesting Thanks for clarifications. My next question is how they hang the bodies while painting/staining them. if that spot is directly beneath the hanger, perhaps it's not drying well?

I've an SR300 set up like this. Works fine. I should flog it, I'm not using it.

'Israelites'. I can't get the pattern of when the rising scale appears. Possibly because certain guitarists and singers don't necessarily know either

[quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1440625051' post='2852566'] How does this happen? You say that part never gets touched? [/quote] My first thought was slap impact, but the damage is between the G and D strings (the OP appears to be left-handed), so I don't think that can be it. Second guess is fingertip impact, but only if that's where the OP actually plays - thumb on the top of the neck pup could put fingertips in a position to produce wear like that, especially if the action is low. So could slap+pop. Third guess is a resonance effect, but that is definitely a long shot. This is all pure speculation, obviously

Cool Looks like fun.

[quote name='Rumple' timestamp='1440588766' post='2852154'] Spotted this whilst looking for some tuners on Ebay, might be worth keeping an eye on if you have J or P type basses. [b][url="http://tinyurl.com/nrucwd8"]http://tinyurl.com/nrucwd8[/url][/b] [/quote] Thank you, that's on my Watch list.
