Im not sure but having the pickups against each other may have some strange effect on the magnetic field ( and sound ) Could be interesting! Will.

[quote name='Davetbass' post='585318' date='Aug 30 2009, 07:09 PM']Moving on my pbassalike as I've just bought a Sandberg pm4. Bought on here a year ago from Mr 2x18. It's a great bass made from quality parts. Body is of unknown origin but is well made and not too heavy. Neck is a Mighty Mite jazz with the jazz bass logo on. Solid upgraded gold bridge with matching Schaller tuners and an EMG pbass pickup. Selling this with 2 spare pickguards. One in firey lava and the other in red tortoishell. Strung with standard gauge rotosounds it's also recently had a professional set up fretdress. It's in good condition with hardly any dings or scratches. Here's a link to a gallery: [url="http://img200.imageshack.us/gal.php?g=p1010816y.jpg"]http://img200.imageshack.us/gal.php?g=p1010816y.jpg[/url] This is a great player with a really low action and a fast neck. It's been my main gigging bass for the past year and it sounds amazing aswell. Paid £250 last year I'd be happy with £200+postage. Thanks for looking Dave[/quote] This is a cracking Bass guys with a Lovely neck -- Im tempted to have it back,but my other 4 P-Basses probably rule it out! Whats that White Musicman in your photos Dave ?- Thats very Nice! --Have a Bump on me! Will

[quote name='attackbass' post='584601' date='Aug 29 2009, 04:31 PM']Hey, I'm on a mission to make my Lakland Bob Glaub playable live. Had various action problems with this bass, taken it to a tech once already and still my issue with the bass haven't been solved - but i'm not one for giving up, so have decided to sort out the problem myself. I've already done the truss rod and action myself, the tech I had gone to had set the neck so that it was bang on straight, great if you play softly but clank central if you dig in. I need to change the nut as it's been cut way to low, despite my local tech raising the nut already, it still isn't high enough on the a string for the way I play. So i'm think of getting a brass nut, but not sure if there's any difference from one brass nut to another - is brass just brass. I want to get as much attack/sustain from the bass as possible. Where are the best places to get these from? Next stop is to swap the lakland pickup out for a SD QRTR POUNDER - the pickup in it is too much vintage thump - sound lovely through my phil jones briefcase playing mellow stuff but I need a more modern gnarly p tone for my band I know some people will think I'm mad for making these changes, and there is nothing wrong with any other lakland i've ever played and apart with the problem with a string really the finish and feel of the bass is lovely, and it's nice to play gently - I just need to make it more into a rock beast![/quote] They sell them here ( Postage is included ) [url="http://www.axesrus.com/axeNuts.htm"]http://www.axesrus.com/axeNuts.htm[/url] You will have to check they fit sizewise! Will.

[quote name='RichB' post='579763' date='Aug 25 2009, 01:02 AM']I've been trawling through google trying to find an Ibanez parts dealer but have had no luck. Anyone got any suggestions?[/quote] I should think any Official Ibanez retailer should be able to order parts for you! Although I know from personal experience some are more helpful than others! Will.

Kurca is a top class guy to deal with -- he let me have a John Suhr pickup for the price of postage. Great communications and rapid delivery from abroad. Very Highly recommended Will.

[quote name='JackLondon' post='576503' date='Aug 21 2009, 11:10 AM']Hi, I was thinking about getting LEDs fitted on the neck of my Ibanez, I was wondering if anyone had anything done byt this company [url="http://www.simscustom.com"]Sims Custom Shop[/url] Cheers Jack[/quote] Hi Not Leds But! I have a genuine 70s P bass that has had the body refinished in 3 tone sunburst, and it is a stunning high quality job! They also made me a new pickguard in abalone for my Mustang bass and that is also First Class. Hope that is of some use to you! Will.
