4 ...... One for each finger.......almost as if it was meant to be that way

Why not get the band to sign or initial it inside the pickup cavity, I made a thinline telecaster and got my wife and children to sign and date it inside the body cavity. It doesn't detract from the looks, but I know it's there

Nice one Plenty of pics and updates please

What a bummer, if my kids were older I would have loved to do something like this, but it's too much travelling for me at the moment Can't think why your existing bassist would feel like packing it in Best of luck to you, hope you find the right one soon Harry

If you are using threaded inserts, why not just do a fretless neck which can be swapped quite quickly with the fretted neck on your other bass. I am doing this on a Musicman/Sandberg style 5 string build I'm busy with at the moment This would reduce costs and the number of basses you have standing around Good luck Harry

How did this one turn out, I wonder?

Absolutely

[sup][size=4][size=6]By the way sorry about the shoddy state of this post, I've been getting a new keyboard and the return key doesn't seem to function properly...........it couldn't be user error, of course![/size][/size][/sup]

Been having a youtube day today and catching up on some things I don't normally listen to in the car, when it (re)occurred to me just how beautiful the lyrics of Joni Mitchell's songs are. This is one of my favourites of hers [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAb6Jgb41mo[/media] "Like the hexagram of the heavens, like the strings of this guitar" .................what a line ! This whole song really moves me So, who else could write such poetry ?

Chas and Dave.......and the other one

This might suit your needs, looks like a MightyMite neck [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261169582570?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2648"]http://www.ebay.co.u...984.m1423.l2648[/url] what's up with the old one, by the way ?

Gerry sorted me out with a Schaller tuner to make up a set of 5 and he was a proper gent. Top bloke in my book!

Quite right! And why did he cut away the section between the pickups? And what's the point of transferring the hardware to another bass? Wal's not well made enough? Or nice enough to play? Sheesh!

I have a Patrick Eggle Milan bass which has locking Sperzal tuners, they work fine

He's right, there aren't many like this around [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WAL-Bass-guitar-/150990377394?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item2327ba51b2"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WAL-Bass-guitar-/150990377394?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item2327ba51b2[/url] I feel like crying

Anyone use a tuner on their I-phone? I notice that TC Electronic do one which I assume will be good but can anyone recommend one 1st hand? Cheers in advance Harry

Favourite Andy Rourke basslines? I'll start it off..... Some girls are bigger than others.....chugs along like a train Still Ill......as already mentions it weaves around the guitar nicely What's your fave?

this I like [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WARMOTH-BASS-GUITAR-/111005162099?_trksid=p5197.m1992&_trkparms=aid%3D111000%26algo%3DREC.CURRENT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D14%26meid%3D5362734034989597219%26pid%3D100015%26prg%3D1006%26rk%3D1%26sd%3D111005162099%26"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WARMOTH-BASS-GUITAR-/111005162099?_trksid=p5197.m1992&_trkparms=aid%3D111000%26algo%3DREC.CURRENT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D14%26meid%3D5362734034989597219%26pid%3D100015%26prg%3D1006%26rk%3D1%26sd%3D111005162099%26[/url]

That's encouraging news

.............who cares, it's a tidy looking bass [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=271143238037#description"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=271143238037#description[/url] The seller is quite upfront about the fact that certain details don't add up and it may not be a Mexican P, but would anyone fake a MIM? Good price so far for a nice looking bass

Let us know how it sounds with that combination of cabs Pestie, is there much of a hike in volume with the second cab?

I think we're all wasting words, this is a classified ad

Blimey Silddx, I was just thinking of the right words to say exactly the same! Top idea !
