I wish you a speedy recovery. Nerve pain is beyond hell

I am off to see Joe Dart in Bristol on Monday. Thank you so much @la bam

Wow. Thanks for the heads up. A bit too far away for me, unfortunately, but interesting nonetheless.

Affordaboard makes buying effects a relatively inexpensive bit of fun. My latest dip included this little gem: £25. Delivered. Bonkers. I have it set to give me an always on 'thickening' with just a bit of dirt around the edges. It does get fuzzier if you want it to, and has excellent tone controls. There's no loss of bottom end anyway, but it can be enhanced rather nicely. Pros: looks neat, sounds great, responsive controls, crazy cheap. Cons: stupid placement of power socket, absolutely blinding led.

The do longer ones

So sorry to beat you to the punch - and without you I wouldn't have known about it. I too am thinking of putting multi effects in one. By the way Amazon has a deal on tiny patch cables if you're looking. They're 16 quid for 6 but with a £6 off voucher!

Might go with this tomorrow. By the way I lifted just the front edges of the foam and slid the velcro under them. No need to glue it down.

My first go... I have ordered two more, at 8 quid each I would be a chump not to.

Thanks guys, I'm actually going with @kodiakblair 's idea and moving the neck farther away. The neck has to be put on again anyway because it's not straight. This is turning into a bit of a lesson.

If I could find a bridge that suited the bass and covered all the holes drilled out to sink the existing bridge into the body, then yes, absolutely.

OK folks, getting the ruler out to measure string height, I used it to check what my unreliable eyesight was telling me. The bridge has been bodged on and it isn't square. Not much but the couple of mm I need. Nothing short of major surgery can fix this one I'm afraid.

about 5mm

Nope, new strings didn't work

Cool. I'll try that next - thank you

So I bought a bass that won't intonate. Only on one string but it's maxed out and needs to go further. Had this on another bass and I just moved the bridge back a bit; problem solved. This bridge is fixed into drilled holes. It ain't moving. Is there owt I can do?

I wonder if it wouldn't be more polite to start your own thread? Rather than using Tom's for your transcriptions?

Jason is a smashing bloke. Hospitable, friendly, honest, and an all round pleasure to deal with. I am more than happy to commend him to the Basschat Massive. Deal with absolute confidence. Stew

I must say this is where the Zoom products always win over their more illustrious competitors. To my ears anyway.
