Thanks!
There are others in the works (passive "drive" and passive mid-freq cut)

Passive drive? A feedback looped pair of germanium diodes to ground? 1N34?
I'm very intrigued…

I've found this online, the Bat-O-Meter...

Just had a look at that. Ironic that the 9v battery needed to power it isn't included!
Multimeter. You can use it for all sorts of other stuff too. Depending on the battery connectors you should be able to get the probes on the battery contacts without taking it out., but you'd probably have to unscrew the cover anyway, so that sort of defeats the point...
Yup, I'd expect him or the band to pay to have it repaired. Might be worth invoicing the band (as a group) to replace the drivers as it would prompt everyone else to help the lazy f***er to 'lug his TE rig up the stairs' next time…
elephant? I thought it was one of these…

There's a sticky of recommended luthiers in the Repairs and Technical section -

Hope you find one you like.
I've just rediscovered Pearl Jam. I bought their first album (Ten) and absolutely loved it, their second was very good and after that I sort of lost interest. Love the new one though!
One from today's rehearsal. Happy times.

(Cheeky shot taken by the singer).
It's a simple fix if you're brave enough to get inside it and desolder the board. If you'll cover the cost of the switch (roughly£1.50) and the P&P I don't mind doing it for you if you don't want to tackle it yourself.
To be honest I've never found a stock Fender neck that I was happy with. The dimensions and contours were nice, but the high gloss finishes put me right off.
Mighty Mite stuff*, on the other hand, is superb.
*Other replacement necks are available.
