Some more data points for you Fender CIJ Precision PB70US E-A 12.4cm D-G 15.2cm Yamaha BB800 reverse P D-G 12cm E-A 15 cm - with a gap of about 3mm between the two halves

Awesome. I need to get one of those!

It selects the bass line to play, and lights the LEDs up in the right sequence?

Form a Pogues tribute band, obviously. Well duh!

This one is centre positive: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00YTXUULI/ref=sspa_dk_detail_3?psc=1&pd_rd_i=B00YTXUULI&pd_rd_w=VGobV&pf_rd_p=4c7674c8-9ecc-44d6-badd-dc77c2e64a92&pd_rd_wg=hFkUO&pf_rd_r=XEZTGRC3DPQ379YT5M9W&pd_rd_r=5045a9e2-4a1b-4128-b04a-6d72791eec80&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEzMEpIQ1lVMFRPU09VJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwMzc1ODE0T05HS0pJSklLRlMxJmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTAwMDkxNjYzU0RKSDFVWkU2V0U4JndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfZGV0YWlsJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==

Vinyl wrap would be cheaper. And reversible.

Sorry again, I meant to say "... what I know about Jamulus" . Linux might indeed be a deal-breaker for Jamkazam - there doesn't seem to be an option to download a Linux client. There are a couple of references to it but they all seem to date from a few years ago. Jamulus does have Linux support. There may even be a package, depending on which version you are using. If not, it's pretty straightforward to complie from source. I haven't built a client, but I did build the server code on a Raspberry Pi and it worked OK, just took a little while to compile. B3 should work fine. If your PC has a built-in mike you could use that for voice, but there's a text chat window so it's not crucial provided that you are sighted. One of the people I play with is blind, so he doesn't have a lot of use for text chat. Drop me a PM when you're ready, if you need help.

It wasn't intended. I'm sorry if that's how it came across. If you dont get what you want out of Jamkazam with Warren, please get in touch and I'll happily show you what I know about Jamkazam. It's not a lite version: it's open source, there is no paid-for version and there are no strings attached.

Jamulus is free so the only thing you have to invest in it is your time. Likewise with the demo version of Jamkazam. The minimum requirement page for Jamulus says 1Mb upload and download. Jamkazam is going to depend on the number of people in the session, since it's point-to-point connected , whereas jamulus is hub and spoke to a central server. Latency is much more significant than upload/download speed hence BassAdder27's comment about a wired connection straight to the router. Both systems will give you the ping time and round trip time so you can fairly easily establish whether or not you're in the ball park. There are some tuning tweaks you can try to improve latency, particular with Jamkazam. I'm finding ping roundtrip times of 6 - 10 ms for London, < 20 for most of Europe, which are usable. Much more than that and it gets untenable, so connecting to servers in the US at 30 - 60 ms is not going to work too well.

Jamulus is audio-only.

Jamkazam does sync audio and video but not very well IMHO. It's been having some problems since they went to a paid version. I've had better results using Jamulus for audio, and accepting that Jitsi/Zoom is going to lag behind, or forgetting about video altogether.

Think @51m0n is most likely to have figured this out, I think I remember reading something he wrote about Tape Sat.

Great job Dad3353!

Beautiful job Andy. That finish has really brought out the flame in the maple parts of the neck.

Well it should be a very heavy duty chromed bridge with engraving. The ad does say 'with all original parts', there would be no reason to change the bridge, its miles more substantial than a typical BBOT Fender from the same period. You wouldn't get much late '70s Fender for 280 quid, or even Squier JV from a few years later.

I've got one. Excellent bass with the 'P' pickup in reverse orientation. I got mine second hand in 1979. How much is the one on Gumtree? My one is black , but there was also a somewhat less desirable brown colour.

It doesn't have jazz pickups though. It has stacked humbuckers in jazz-shaped cases.

I did a dep job on Eb bass for a brass band once, it was a beer night where they had to keep playing without breaks between pieces. Each part had a number on it and the MD hand-signalled the number of the next piece while you were playing the current one. You then had to find a sequence of a few bars rest to get the next part out of your pad. Or in the case of the basses, one player at a time, since there are virtually never any bars rest in the bass parts for the kind of pieces you play at a beer night. You would think that it would be better to just sort the order out before the start, but the MD wanted the flexibility to go with the flow and select an appropriate piece in real-time.

Bass Collection Jive Bass?

Credit card payment surcharges are illegal in the UK, since January 2018.

Well, it makes a change from "Is this still available?" which is all I seem to get in response to Gumtree ads.

You have 2 two tops, each 8 Ohm, and 2 subs, each also 8 Ohm? My understanding is that if you plug one 8 Ohm sub and one 8 Ohm top into one of these Skytec passive crossovers you end up with an overall load for that system of approx. 8 Ohms. Which you can plug into one channel of your Behringer, you'll get about 165W RMS according to the spec less a bit in the crossover. http://www.caraudiohelp.com/newsletter/speaker_impedance.html

That tool wall deserves a thread of its own!

This one looks a bit nicer than the standard offerings, with ash body and what appears to be an ebony fingerboard to me. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/The-Bass-Collection-SGC-Nanyo-MIJ-Precision-Bass/184605775058?hash=item2afb5c94d2:g:LmEAAOSwO-Jf8H2z
