[quote name='Bassman Sam' timestamp='1342832979' post='1741796'] Nice one, you'll need a knee replacement before it needs a refret. [/quote] I'm a "neck-gripper" and seem to wear frets like nobody's business :/

I just used the P for a gig and it sounded epic just as it is I dread the day it needs a refret but hopefully that's years away

Ah ok, now I get it. Thanks guys I like the "nasal parping" (best analogy ever, by the way) on a few songs but I must admit I much prefer the P tone overall. I'm not gonna consider the mod any further then. I shall save this cash towards moving house, and I'll look in to making myself a parts Jazz at some point in the future (black J body with maple USA P neck mmmm)

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1342797380' post='1741162'] So true. [/quote] I still don't get it help an old girl out here!

[quote name='thisnameistaken' timestamp='1342788589' post='1740952'] Once you get over 30 you never use the J pickup again anyway. [/quote] How so?

That's good advice Nigel, thank you I think I shall probably just treat myself to a new set of strings and stick the rest in a savings account.

So, now that I've paid my vet bill, I think I would like to add a J pickup to my P bass. I would want both pickups to have separate volumes (so I could turn either one right off if I wanted to), and for the tone to still control the P pickup to get the full range of P only tones. I would basically only want to have the J pickup there to add a bit of versatility for when I want to play disco or pop stuff. Does anyone think this is a bad idea? Should I just find a cheap Jazz bass instead of molesting my pride and joy Precision? I don't really like the look of the J pickup on a P bass, but love the idea of having a "one fits all" bass. Also, any idea what this would cost me? I can't do this type of job myself. I want to replace the P pickup with an SPB-3 and the J pickup would be SJB-3

Hellooooo!

I have the Amplitube app with iRig and I personally think it's better than the Pocket GK one. Horses for courses though

I think the key word is YOU need to write new lines for the track

Awesome! Glad you had a great time, and congratulations

[quote name='debwilliams' timestamp='1341758240' post='1723619'] Cheers Mel, we had a great. Hope you can join us one day/night. We're hoping to arrange a get together in the Cardiff area so hopefully that would be close enough for you to come along? [/quote] Yeah Cardiff is only just over an hour on the train

Glad you girls had a great time

I sold a bass to them last year. Which was cool. I'm not really a fan though TBH, never been really in to indie.

Right now I'm on a bus listening to Abba's Voulez Vouz album. Fantastic stuff.

[/quote] By the way, I didn't mean to offend with this... I wasn't assuming you couldn't set it up yourself, just saw that you just took another bass to a shop, and they charge way too much IMHO...

Deb, if it's a P bass, don't sweat it, just buy it! They're worth every penny. And then you can bring it over to Gloucester, have a brew with me, and I'll set it up for you for nowt - and I'll even show you how so you can save yourself money on shop visits in future!

[quote name='debwilliams' timestamp='1341316455' post='1716798'] I have absolutely no justification other than "I want that" .... It's just lust. Pure and simple. A strong driver all the same. [/quote] Life's too short. If you have the cash and it will make you happy, buy it. And, let us know what it is, we're nosy!
