  1. Although it's a 4/4 and the 3/4 variant is nearly £500.
  2. And this is why basses should be natural finish with no scratchplate.
  3. Mrs Zero says I always sound like me. I'm not sure if that's a good or a bad thing.
  4. That's what I do - two sets of identical wirelesses, one branded Lekato and the other M-Vave. £25 or so from AliExpress.
  5. Harley-Davidson - heavy, underpowered, unreliable, incredibly uncomfortable, vastly overpriced. If that's your idea of "wonderful" then yes, they are.
  6. That's either "5 go mad with the heated glue gun" or there was a bukkake party while they were building the amp.
  7. Either stop playing "Total eclipse of the heart" or stop treating the lyrics as stage directions. It's not "Time warp".
  8. Normal crappy Jazz scratchplate but more decorative control plate.
  9. I was trying to find the original diagram that I worked from and didn't, and I didn't download it either which is annoying. However, I did find another reference page which shows clearly what I did, as I do have text notes to tell me what connections to make. I should have checked those wiring diagrams properly against what I used. https://www.stewmac.com/video-and-ideas/online-resources/learn-about-guitar-pickups-and-electronics-and-wiring/blend-pot-wiring/ My notes definitely say to connect the crossovered non-hot ends to ground. If you compare that to a V/V/T setup, the pickups are loaded exactly the same - at one end of travel the pickup hot goes to ground, from the halfway point to the opposite end the pickup hot is straight to volume hot, and in between fully off and the centre point there is a varying amount of resistance. https://www.stewmac.com/video-and-ideas/online-resources/learn-about-guitar-pickups-and-electronics-and-wiring/learn-about-wiring-stewmac-pickups/stewmac-bass-pickup-wiring-diagrams/ - second diagram
  10. When the Cort Space 5 came out, they were £50 cheaper than anywhere else.
  11. Edited: see later post for correction to this and much clearer diagram. The non-hot end of the blend tracks should be connected to ground. As regards V/B/T, I thought I should post a version of the wiring diagram that I worked from: This may be clearer: In this, the opposite ends of both tracks are cross-connected, rather than leaving one end floating as in the diagram in the OP.
  12. Mrs Zero had her hip replaced, and I was given a date for my hip replacement, so that's quite good, although we had to postpone our summer holiday by 12 months as a result.
  13. Just the right time to buy this, before the GAS challenge for 2026 starts.
