    If you were bothered, you could probably get some wood veneers off ebay to fill in the space around the bridge, something like [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MARQUETRY-WOOD-VENEER-HOUSE-HOBBYS-FIGURED-MAPLE-SHEET-/130555646447?pt=UK_Crafts_Other_Crafts_EH&hash=item1e65b911ef#ht_500wt_949"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MARQUETRY-WOOD-V...ef#ht_500wt_949[/url]

    God-dang. The voices in my head are true! I realised this a few years ago. Nice to see some proof about it.

    I recorded a soundclip with it today. My mate was testing the recording capabilities of his blackberry torch. Amazing sound resolution for what was quite loud. But i played it through my trace combo with one of the EQ presets active, so im not sure how much sound is down to the bass, but it was on neck J and MM bridge coil in parallel.

    When i first started it, i had on/off switches for each pickup, and a separate volume for each, then a master volume and tone. Not a lot of choices. So then i had a look around, and realised that i could utilize this: If you think about it, the bridge MM has 2 coils, the P and J could act as 2 coils, then the 2 outputs from those switches could act as a third set of coils, which means there are 3 super switches, then a vol and tone. I can get a wide variety of sounds from it too. Like the J and bridge coil of the MM in parallel. Or the P and J parallel. or each coil in parallel. I have been asked about it a few times, so i think ill have to make a build thread about it sometime soon.

    bene there, done that Some great sounds i can get from it.

    Heres a diagram that should suffice. Just ignore the tone control. And the best way to cover the holes? Depending on what colour the bass is, you may need a refinish. But i'd put something on the underside of the hole, and fill it up with some wood filler, then level and refinish.

    [quote name='Roland Rock' post='1307453' date='Jul 18 2011, 09:16 AM']Thanks for the replies. The most interesting trade is the raft. PM me your details and the strings are yours, sir. I was thinking that rather than it gathering dust on my shelf, I have a mission for you, should you choose to accept: 1:Tape a £1 coin to the deck of the raft (you'd have spent that on P&P anyway) 2:Launch her down the nearest stream/river 3:Hopefully make someone's day[/quote] Alrighty. I will post a little video of it on its way once it has been completed. My details are in your inbox.

    [quote name='Evil Undead' post='1306290' date='Jul 16 2011, 11:27 PM']An alarm clock that looks like a bomb. And when the alarm goes off, it makes an exploding noise [/quote] Does it look a lot like a bomb, and can only be used once?

    I'd get one for the 22 fret neck if anything. Full triple octave. Great to use on a project. Id get more than that for the parts.

  20. tommorichards
    Are the jazz pickups magnetic polepieces, or bar magnet underneath.
  21. tommorichards
    Is that £40 posted?
  22. tommorichards
    Hmm, depends on how good you are with a router or a chisel. But if its hidden by the PG, its not too important.
  23. tommorichards
    Got any sound clips? How does it play?

    [quote name='toneknob' post='1302018' date='Jul 13 2011, 10:11 AM']Yep they're good. I got two custom doubles, one a 12/4 and the other a 4/8. Pros: Modular electronics on some models, zero fret, instant 70s rock sound. Cons: the finish is prone to cracking, [b]good luck finding spares.[/b] The website mentioned earlier is pretty cool, and you'll see me on there [/quote] I recently exchanged emails with the guy from this site [url="http://www.grubersaberhagen.co.uk/Grubersaberhagen/Home.html"]http://www.grubersaberhagen.co.uk/Grubersaberhagen/Home.html[/url] And he makes the pickups that match, as well as a few other pieces. So in that regard, you could probably get repairs from him. Also, his rutherford build is amazing.
