    [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1394905734' post='2396574'] [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif] If your muting palm is being shredded by rough bridge barrel screws it's a simple enough matter to buy shorter ones, and the problem is no more. I've done this several times over the years. [/font] [/quote] Yes, same here Mark, I've purchased shorter ones and even sometimes just cut them down, tedious job that though

    No, they will do your design.

    [quote name='Hobbayne' timestamp='1394902041' post='2396519'] I use palm muting with a pick. I have been playing for many years and have never injured my self doing it!! [/quote] Same here. I do need to be careful if the saddle screws are sticking out proud of the bridge though. For me palm muting is preferable to sponge, because there will be some notes that I don't want muted.

    [quote name='Andy O'Neil' timestamp='1394734811' post='2394632'] Here's a free bump! ..with a question i have a 75 P also - and it has that same darkening around the pup under the pickguard. Whats the deal with this? Just curious if you knew, always wondered ! best - Andy. [/quote] Don't know the answer to that, sorry Andy but thanks for the bump. [quote name='SpaceChick' timestamp='1394743064' post='2394757'] If I had the cash it would have been bought, glass boxed and displayed on my bedroom wall!! Please someone buy it, in case I win the lottery and will subsequently need major negotiations with Mr Space Chick! [/quote] Debs, I've heard that Mr. Space Chick is very understanding and agreeable chap. He did mention to me that there was a perfect little space for a p bass on the bedroom wall, honest. [quote name='jamondrums' timestamp='1394744590' post='2394796'] Beautiful bass. As good as it looks. [/quote] Thanks Jay. and Mr. Phsycoandy Bump

    Great work Paul, great write up and great photos, it's all great I love the look and sound. Sounds like like it was a real worthwhile project for you and you've ended up with a rather lovely instrument.

    [quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1394748626' post='2394883'] There's one here for £75 - not even a couple of weeks fag/beer money.. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/231334-harley-benton-mandocaster-reduced-to-l75/"]http://basschat.co.u...reduced-to-l75/[/url] [/quote] Yes, was looking at the ad earlier. Think I fancy something more traditional but it is tempting for that dosh.

    [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1394614116' post='2393225'] By the way, and [i]apropos [/i]of nothing, has anyone heard from TIM recently? [/quote] He spent some time checking out my P bass for sale ad

    36 hour bump
  20. gary mac
    That is an excellent price for a really good piece of kit. Already got one, otherwise I would have it

    I think there is most certainly an element of just wanting things that we perceive as being better and to a certain degree being able to afford to pay more as we progress through life. My first car was a ten year old Mark 1 Ford Cortina, at the time I loved it, cherished it and thought it was all I needed in a car, may be it was but I wouldn't want it now.
  22. gary mac
    Well done Mick Nothing in my diary for that day. Looking forward to seeing you all again.
  23. gary mac
    Some of you must be getting bored with this getting bumped every 36 hours or so. The only way you can stop this, is to come and buy it.
  24. gary mac
    I'm ok Jay, thanks. Was just wondering the other day whether you would still have my P bass, glad you have, it's a good one. good luck with your sale.
  25. gary mac
    Wow Jay that looks incredible. I'm not in the market for another P bass at the moment but that is very tempting, good luck.
