  1. I've been playing my Bravewood Jazz Bass (1962 replica) now as my main bass for 11 years. Love it!
  2. That's about a half a cm - seems about normal to me? I think my setup preference is around that (I have it written down somewhere)
  3. My oh my 😮😯😯 https://entertainment.ha.com/itm/entertainment-and-music/james-jamerson-owned-and-played-1961-fender-precision-bass-serial-number-60228-with-strap-case-and-photo-archive/p/7161-48001.s?ic4=GalleryView-Thumbnail-071515
  4. I don't understand the physics either, Michael. Interested to know that it isn't just snake oil on fretted notes.
  5. Wow, I'm no expert but surely there are questions surrounding the maple fingerboard (not least the 70s TV decal and tuners). Did they even make necks with maple fingerboards in 66? Also, never seen a serial number plate in that format.
  6. Perform to the person at the back of the audience is the advice I was once given. Remember you are an entertainer, and enjoy yourself.
  7. I guess the MU would be best to direct your question to, however I wouldn't have thought such a contract would be enforceable outside of the jurisdiction. Is there a contract first and foremost?
  8. I don't know how much they pay, but I do know how much 4 hour US bar gigs pay.
  9. I did mine a couple of years ago. Blisters! Loved it tho.
  10. BUMP - only a handful left, message me your requirements and I'll come up with a price to include shipping
  11. I bought a Cruztools Bass Guitar toolkit, which came with a handy guide as well as all the necessary tools referred to therein. One of the best purchases I've made. Only thing missing are radius gauges, which can be had quite cheaply.
  12. She's really improved as an artist IMO. The rockabilly stuff was poor.
  13. Thanks to all for your responses. I guess the answer to my question is no then I don't want to have to drill additional holes in my bass really to add a mute kit.
  14. Hi All Selling a brand new and unused set of Sennheiser IE4 in ear headphones. These came with my new wireless system but I don't need them. They include three different earpiece sizes to fit all canals. I used the IE4 a couple of years back and they provide a crystal clear interpretation of the music with a reasonable amount of bass, great for listening, monitoring or whatever. RRP 54.95 Selling for £35 posted Happy Bidding! Danny
  15. [quote name='SH73' timestamp='1493416218' post='3288267'] Ts9 with bass? I need to give it a go. [/quote] TS808 is your only man
  16. Hi All Does anybody know if there is a company out there who make an aftermarket bridge with mutes (a la the Stingray Classic bridge) Preferably Fender style/dimensions Cheers! D
  17. I have an Ibanez Promethean P5110c 1x10 combo, with a matching P110c extension can. Superb rig for its size, 500w at 4ohms but I believe both items have been discontinued
  18. I usually balance my pickups using the PFL facility on a good mixer. Plug the bass straight into a mixer, play each string and note the signal strength of each. Then I raise/lower the pickups until all output readings match right across the strings. I do this after a good setup i.e. truss rod adjustment, bridge saddle height and intonation adjustment.
  19. What's the benefit to having a balanced output (Thumpinator) as opposed to unbalancer (Micro Thumpinator)?
  20. Sounds like a Jazz Bass actually!
  21. [quote]The was a band in the late 80's called The Adventures. They had a couple of hits and an album but they soon faded.[/quote] As in 'Broken Land'? They were from around my neck of the woods. I sometimes gig with their former lead guitarist/songwriter. D
