Tread very carefully, as it's easy to effectively move the problem along the board. Literally do a couple of strokes of the files and keep on checking for rocking on the adjacent frets. Also make sure that the fret that you suspect is causing the problem, is actually seated in properly. Sometimes all that is required is a gentle tap with a light weight hammer.

Lovely. I usually really dislike ageing/relicing but that looks great, the best example that I've seen.

Always a pleasure to deal with Jon. Happy to recommend.

Buying a decent, light(ish) Precision body?

Another of my retirement sales, this lovely Gallien Krueger MB Fusion 500. Super powerful amp in a compact format. Very good, used condition. I replaced the preamp valves last year, so they should be good for a long time. I never found this amp to be lacking, I used it in pubs/clubs and also played some large venues and open air gigs. Brilliant, versatile eq section and two channels. I'm in Hoddesdon, Herts. Happy for home visits to road test it with my Barefaced cab. (So long as the cab hasn't sold). Price is £450 ono. If you want it couriered, then let me know and I will get a price. Also selling this Barefaced cab

Another retirement sale item, the very impressive MXR M80 pedal and power supply/adaptor. In very good used condition and everything works as it should. Happy for it to be road tested at my place or I can post for around a fiver. A bit of the advertising blurb down below. Manufacturer's ID: JD-M80 Finally, all the essentials in one tough little box, You need a serious D.I. for playing live and laying down killer tracks. You've got to have a preamp and finely tuned EQ to add punch to your tones. This one-of-a-kind pedal gives you the whole deal in a bomb-proof enclosure that will survive even the most out of control gigs-and players. Built with the highest quality components, the M-80 can give you everything from warmth and transparency to a volcanic roar, without making you scroll through menu screens or an indecipherable manual. Engage the color switch for some sweet preset EQ, then tweak your tone with three band control. Dial in your ideal distortion with the gain knob and blend just the right amount into your clean signal, then kick it on and off at will. The adjustable noise gate pours on the sustain and cuts out hum and hiss. With XLR and parallel 1/4" outputs and a phantom power switch, you'll never have a problem delivering your choice new tones. I'm also selling this great little effects unit

No more gigging for me, so my very well looked after Barefaced Big Baby 3rd Generation cab is up for sale. As can be seen in the photos, the condition is excellent. It can be road tested here with either my Galien Kruger or TC electronics heads (unless they sell first). Given that I'm selling due to retirement, no trades thanks. I would prefer collection but will discuss couriers and costs if required.

Setting up a P Bass, Action and Nut Slots
gary mac replied to Chienmortbb's topic in Repairs and Technical
I fit a lot of these on customers instruments. Highly recommended, nicely cut slots and self lubricating. They usually need a little shaping/sanding for an exact fit but easy enough to do, with small files and varying grades of sand paper or micromesh. -

Was just offering an alternative, wasn't sure that you were absolutely set on a combo. No worries, just offering advice as I had to seriously lighten the load and make things easier, after surgery.

One of the decent small heads and a Barefaced Super Compact would be a great choice.Due to back problems and other health issues I had to go the lightweight route. I used Galien Kruger and Genz amps with a SC in some very loud situations.👍
