  2. Sausage In A Bottle — The Police
  3. Roman Candle — Elliott Smith oops too late... never mind
  4. I wonder whether they'll also bring out one called the fretter that you can clip onto the neck of a fretless bass to make it almost as good as a proper fretted bass?
  5. it must have been a tonecoin
  6. Maybe you could get one built with glass fronted doors?
  7. They look a bit cheap & nasty in my humble opinion with the tacky graphics and the corny bite taken out of the headstock. Ugh!
  8. The Bushes Scream While My Daddy Prunes — The Very Things
  9. I've never grasped the point of using these kind of shims over a piece of card, which I've always used with no issues. I also have four fender guitars with microtilt adjustment. This system works well with no loss of sustain or other issues despite its seemingly bad reputation which might have more to sloppy 70s era manufacturing.
  10. Season Of The Witch — Dr John
  11. Naughty Boy — Jackie Day
  12. Birmingham — Shovels & Rope
  13. No, a special teeny-tiny pickguard needs to be ordered. Brian aka earlpilanz on ebay has the template and the one he cut for me is a perfect fit.
  14. I picked up one of these. I really wanted a black one so I could put on a mirror pickguard, but I saw a secondhand red one hanging up in QatarCatarrh at a price I couldn’t resist. I didn’t like the single ply pickguard so I ordered a red pearl one which looks classy. I put on a fender high mass bridge I had in my bits box and fitted a set of GHS short scale stainless steel flats which have held up well despite a little the E string being a little long. The materials, fit & finish are very good for such an inexpensive bass. The pickup doesn’t need to be upgraded, although its corners are a little sharp if you rest your hand there.
  15. Over The Clouds — Izabella Khalo
  16. Dollar Bill Blues — Townes Van Zandt
  17. Do It Again — Steely Dan
  18. The square truss rod hole & hex nut indicates that this is not the neck from a JV. It should be a cross-shaped slot in a snug round hole. I have a non-fender japanese-made neck from brandoni music with a truss rod that looks like this.

  20. The Car Thief — The Residents
  21. Oscillate Wildly — The Smiths
  22. The Buoys Are Back In Town — Thin Lizzy
