I think the Tele headstock works best on a Telecaster. It looks ok-ish on a 51-style P Bass but I think it best suits the Telecaster body shape. That said, I absolutely detest Telecaster-shaped basses. You know the ones; a standard Tele guitar shape, blown up to bass size. I think Squier made them as part of the Vintage Modified range, and I've seen a few rubbish home-made jobs too. it really, really doesn't work for a bass. And that's not 'IMO'; it's stone-cold fact.

When I was about 13 I had a go at putting a parts bass together. I got an awful Tele body from eBay or somewhere and a full scale P bass neck. Needless to say that the bridge was in the wrong position so it wouldn't intonate but I didn't understand that at the time. I mixed creosote with red food colouring to stain the body and that really didn't look too bad. It had two 51 P style pickups in the Tele positions and I seem to remember that I wired up them pretty good. 

Think it was all firewood after a year or so 😁

I used to use my 750 with 2 rs210 and 1 rs212 cabs. I wish I had a picture. It was a mighty sound but total overkill. I thought the rs212 was a bit heavy for what it was so I'd plum for the rs210.

Matching headstocks on fender style basses 😷

I don't own one any more but always thought Stingrays look great with the 3+1. Nice proportions. 

Will definitely be checking this out. 

I saw those on Facebook too. I can't tell if it's all a joke not.

twin filter still available ?

It is 😊

Get a Kiogon loom from off here. 

Pickups? Fender custom shop '62 P bass or a Lindy Fralin.

I've had a similar sound when playing with a fresh set of daddario chromes. Went away as the strings settled in. I've experienced this with 4 sets of the same string. 

Okto now sold. 

Concerted effort to reduce the pedal pile again. All pedals are in excellent condition with boxes / manuals etc. Postage to mainland UK included in the price. I'm in Leicester.

Edit: no trades thanks. 

Latent Lemon Audio Brassmaster - £125 

Bought new on Reverb for £150, used a few times but I find myself chasing a big muff fuzz tone at the moment. Really great sounding and faithful reproduction of the Maestro B:ASSMASTER. Can often be a few weeks lead time on these, mine is available now 😉

Emma Electronic Okto Nojs - Sold

Great analogue octave and gated, harmonic fuzz pedal, just add a filter and you've got a great synth set up. Very touch-sensitive and the two sides of this pedal interact very nicely. 

Aguilar Filter Twin - £115

More classic funk tones than you can shake a rhythm stick at. 

Walrus Audio Phoenix - £150 

Seriously heavy duty power supply. 15 outputs with a variety of switchable voltages and currents. Excellent noise filtering and fits underneath most pedaltrain type boards with the included harness that I bought separately. I bought this from Reverb used and I believe there are two 9v cables missing, but thats all I initially received.

Cheers!

Bump for a great looking bass. Tempted.

Wonder what it would look like with a 51 style scratchplate?

That'd be interesting!

Still available!

All sold now, thanks. 

I probably have poor technique but I always found the D string a bit too skinny to anchor my thumb on. It just feels more comfortable on the A and I can make the stretch okay. 

Amazing. Better than new!

Than

Thanks for reply. Does this ruler have 1/64's on it or only mm? Does it have hex key for Fender/Musicman bridges? 

I'll check for both of those things tonight. Honestly can't remember!

I came across one in an antique shop the other week and I had a quick Google but couldn't really find anything other than one was made for keyboards as well. Think it was about £60. 

From the TC electronic Instagram page...

I use the cruztools stagehand. All quality stuff and it's all I need and more to set my P bass up. Small enough that it slips into my gigbag too for on-the-gig adjustments. 

Think it was about £22 from bass direct. 

That many knobs makes me nervous. 

Sold pending the usual.

Well, one of my best pedals is my SansAmp BDDI.

Some time back I decided to make my pedalboard two-output and I spent ages trying out different OD/pre pedals for the 2nd channel.

I finally found the right pedal to fit in there!

I had the answer all the time!

Don't fancy one of these?

Quick Google may suggest it's the pre amp valve? Might change that and see how it is

I had a similar farting noise through my barefaced six10, the noise was being produced only on the low G. I was using an orange ad200b at the time and I reseated the preamp valves and the noise stopped. Very weird. 

And we're back on the classic Jr.
