An Artec SE-2 should replicate that functionality in 4 pots. [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/artec_se2_basselektronik.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/artec_se2_basselektronik.htm[/url] I used one in my custom build, was quite pleased with it.

Welcome to the forum Nice Precision...

Welcome to the forum

We've got a Beatles cover up (Long Long Long), no-one's bothered us about it. I think the pertinent word in the MySpace terms is "create music". "Uploading music you did not create" is not the same as "Uploading songs you did not write". Of course I could be wrong, but that's the way I read it.

Agreed - 8lbs is erring towards lightweight for a bass.

Epiphone - quirky Gibsons without the expense.

Hey Huw, welcome aboard

My Epiphone Les Paul Standard bass has a prettier headstock inlay than the Gibson. Actually, the Gibson doesn't have one! Go figure, I just find that amusing.

Tom bought my pimped Squier Bronco, paid promptly and maintained good comms throughout. I would not hesitate to deal with him in the future.

It's smaller than a Model One. It's roughly guitar humbucker sized, give or take a mm. Mounting is also similar, with threaded holes in lugs protruding from the bottom edges, expecting to be mounted with springs either into a pickguard or a mounting ring. I fixed up a Gibson Ripper recently which had one of these at the bridge.

Planet Waves SOS tuner.

I'm not going to inflict my views on everyone, all I will say is that I do not want a reliced instrument in the same way I don't want a reliced car.

[quote name='gafbass02' post='481446' date='May 6 2009, 09:40 PM']That logo and face mounted jack affair looked horrifc imho and def cost em a sale from me in the past. I do understand that perhaps that sharing a logo with the branded wicks may debatably devalue the german wicks in the eyes of more gear obsessed types as us, but hey ho, it'll shift more units I'm sure![/quote] The recessed, front mounted jack was only the Streamer if memory serves. It's side mounted on my Corvette.

Oh, so [i]that's[/i] why no-one's bought mine yet!

I'm pretty slow with this fretting business. I've done 10 frets tonight in an hour and a half and I got bored and went home from the workshop. Which brings me to my next question - what on earth do people use to cut fret ends down to size? They're bloody hard. I've been using the Dremel to cut them but even it takes its sweet time to cut through, and I don't fancy a spinning wheel of death next to my fingerboard.
