    I do tend you play rather hard, but I cant get on with that rattley noise you get from low action and thin gauge strings.

    A bass playing mate of mine came round the other day while I was restringing and setting up the Mexican P I got from Lojo. He had a go on it and handed it back saying he couldnt play it as the action was too high. I though that was odd as I like it like that. Anyway we measured the E string height at the 12th fret as it was 5mm. Is this considered high?

    [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1340839528' post='1710508'] Ah yes, the Fender VI. And the bassline on 'Helter Skelter' was played by John Lennon on the very same instrument. [/quote] Also Played by Lennon on Let It Be and the awful unlistenable cockups on The Long And Winding Road

    Black PVC covered wooden chipboard case with nice fluffy black interior to keep your bass nice and warm in winter. Made by spider. (Pic from interweb) £20 to the first person who turns up at my front door in Greenford, Middlesex, with a nice crisp £20 note. Sorry, im not posting as I havent got a box big enough. Reasonably good condition, however, it has a few scrapes from gigging, but all catches work.

    I believe Mo Foster used one of these on the theme tune to 'Minder'

    Cheers guys, it seem the way forward is to take the original and adapt/modify it. I found a youtube video of a bloke doing some nice chromatic runs. I think I,ll nick that.

    Has anyone played this one? I know its really only 3 chords going round in sequence, but the bassline never seems to play the same part twice. I think I,ll have another listen, as I have to nail it for Saturday. (The Robbie Williams song, not the Queen one.)

    The E tuning peg clover leaf has had some repair job done on it, but it still works fine. Oh, look at his little sad face He wants you to take him home with you.

    At least the seller is not hiding anything, 'If you want to know more, come and take a look' fair enough.

    [quote name='Gary Williams' timestamp='1340110798' post='1699220'] Odd question - how many bolts hold the neck on? [/quote] Six bolts.
