I'd say it relates to the amp and not to the internal speaker (these chassis were I think also available standalone) . If it says 8 Ohms and you're running it at 4, I think there's a risk of damage to the head.

Also seems to be missing it's 'Made in Japan' sticker. I'm not entirely convinced it's Japanese.

My 465 has a 3-piece maple neck, and I think the SB505 I used to have did too. The one you linked to on Gumtree looks like an SB325 to me. The fingerboard is probably ebony. £75 quid is a good price.

I have Delano stacked humbuckers in my SB465. I like them, but I can see that they wouldn't suit everyone.

Bartolini make a set which will fit the Bass Collection 5s, it's something like 94mm long and bridge and neck are the same size. I think Sadowsky also use the same size. Apologies for the thread hi-jack, I think BassBunny has it right wiring-wise.

Japanese SG copy, maybe Avon? Doesn't look too bad and the starting price is reasonable. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1970-s-made-in-japan-sg-shape-bass-awesome-looking-vintage-cool/273808953765?hash=item3fc04911a5:g:DoAAAOSw4A9ctb8I

Never seen a Tomson before. Paging @Bassassin !

I still have my one, but it has a maple fingerboard, besides which it's going nowhere! Another option is to find a sunburst or coloured body and strip it, like people used to do in the '70s. Nice to see those basses of Dood's again.

Might be worth having a look at wheresthegig.com

Yeah.

Oh well. Mine's gone missing too. Not sure I can be arsed, assuming I can find the original. I've been trying to give basschat the benefit of the doubt and not use Adblock, but I'm afraid this is a step too far.

Yes, I'd be up for this and might be able to drag a couple of friends along too.

It's a relatively simple mod, but by the time you've paid for the bits and someone to do the work, you might as well sell the one you have and buy something that does what you want. An LS-2 will do this, but needs a plug in the input to turn the pedal on. There are also cheaper A-B switches, but the Radial I/O seems to have other stuff going on (tuner output, mute, gain control).

It's not SGC Nanyo, it's one of the new ones with the 'Joe Hubbard' mods. Aguilar pickups and a badass-alike bridge. Fingerboard is rosewood.

I have a Shadow if you want to give that a try, also a Headway EDB1. Did you manage to get any more K&K tape?

Putting pedals in the loop is hit-and-miss for a couple of reasons. Firstly it depends whether you have a parallel loop or a series loop. Many amps are parallel so you will get a 50% blend of the loop return and the un-affected signal prior to the loop. This is likely to weaken the effect of your chorus rather than strengthen it, and compromises the setting of the wet/dry blend knob on the pedal if you have one. Secondly, most pedals will be expecting an instrument-level voltage, where most loops run at a line-level. This is fine for studio rack-type effects, some pedals will tolerate it, others won't play nice.

Think it was launched in 1998, so 2007-2010.

It's been working perfectly as it is for 10 years, it's not broke and it doesn't need fixing.

Another approach might be to use google as the search engine, and search for something like "site:https://www.basschat.co.uk/forum/19-basses-for-sale/ Bristol" or "site:bascchat.co.uk/forum/19-basses-for-sale/ Bristol" (without the quotation marks) The search functionality is somewhat improved from the previous version but still sucks oranges through elephants IMO.

Post a picture here - chances are that someone will know what it is.

It's been strung upside-down. Easily fixed with a set of strings. Great little basses for young students with small hands, these.
