Wow, that's cheaper than a Squier CV!

I'm thinking of getting a Gold Tone Micro bass: http://www.banjosdirect.co.uk/a-new-low-goldtone-microbass-x28m-bassx29-fretted-2083-p.asp But I could always be tempted by the Harley Benton at a third of the price!

You could be right there, you might just need to flip the bridge piece round and job done. Compared to the Kala it looks pretty straight (which will probably mean intonation isn't great on the fretted):

Not easy. You might be able to swap the nut around if the slots aren't sloping downwards towards the tuners, but the intonation will be out unless you reverse the fixed bridge, which is a piece of plastic fitted tightly into an angled slot in the wood.

WordPress sites auto update nowadays, it's just the plugins that need to be done manually. A little disconcerting as I no longer have a chance to backup before updating, but I haven't seen any issues yet. I made this for the wife's childminding business: http://goldilockschildminding.co.uk

I voted orange, but after looking at the pics I now prefer that seafoam green with the white plate and rosewood board.

2 to 5 days means they are not in stock so good luck! Tempted by the fretless myself...

Try the old "Bass is easier than guitar isn't it? I mean you've only got 4 strings."

Always wanted to try one, but went down the G-Lab route as I needed true bypass - I run it into a TAFM which sounds best with an unbuffered signal going in.

I've got a US Fender with the same 60th anniversary metal badge on the back of the headstock - it has different tuners to that one though!

Won't eat up your board as they are relatively smooth. Loved them on a fretless that I had and I will be getting another set when my current defret is ready.

I bought the Mono and returned it because the backing wasn't grippy enough, it's the same slippery mesh material used on the front of it. I went back to using my standard Levys black leather strap with suede backing that I bought in a guitar shop years ago for about £15! http://www.hotroxuk.com/levys-m1-blk-2-5-inch-leather-guitar-strap-black.html http://omegamusic.co.uk/buy/levys-2.5-black-leather-guitar-strap

A tip for the TAFM: http://www.talkbass.com/threads/team-audio-fuzz-machine-tafm-buffer-dip-switches.1066117/

So far a very nice price for a very nice bass - if it's legit: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1978-Fender-Precision-Fretless-Bass-SUPERB-condition-/151343153888?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item233cc142e0

I found the Your Doom to be a disappointment. Couldn't really get a good sound from it, although plenty of people seem to like it! One thing is, I think that whole thing about it being so dynamic is so overblown, I found it made pretty much the same sound no matter how hard I plucked. The Duality had some great sounds in it, but ultimately I was annoyed by the fact it did not have a gain control. I found some of the best sounds from it by turning down the volume on the bass. Neither could shake the Team Awesome Fuzz Machine from its throne! Best bass fuzz of all time if you ask me!

Always loved playing this bass line! Quantic - Mishaps Happening: [media]http://youtu.be/Tsqt65XcBVk[/media]

Had another little play today - definitely a keeper. The first 3 modes are the most useable IMHO, turn the click right down, the dry bass all the way up, and just kick on a bit of organ to fill things out - then when you want a big brash organ chord just strum with a pick or fingernails!

Not bad! I didn't get a power supply with my nano Bass Big Muff, although one is supplied with the B9 Organ Machine!
