NukeBass

Apologies for reviving an ancient thread but this seemed the most appropriate place… (pic for attention) ✌️😉 I’m the proud owner of a Pignose Travel Bass (which is a fun thing to play) however, the sound from the built-in speaker is not that great - I wonder if anyone might’ve had any success in upgrading the speaker to get a better sound?

I play bass guitar alongside (usually) six other guitarists known collectively as "The Glissando Guitar Orchestra". We all bow our instruments with metal objects using a lot of compression and delay, creating fabulously rich textured drones. It sounds like this:

My current board - I've been using this set-up for a while now...

Aha, thanks for that 👍

Hey people, do any of you know where I could obtain a replacement 1.75"/45mm nut for a 50s P-bass (a brass one would be nice)? I'm drawing a blank on my google searches... 🙁

It's possible to get Quick Release Castor Plates - could be a viable solution..? [url="https://www.thomann.de/gb/adam_hall_38090_castor_plate.htm"]https://www.thomann.de/gb/adam_hall_38090_castor_plate.htm[/url] Personally, I just use a sack trolley for moving both mine and the guitarists gear...

I was lucky enough to acquire an Eden WT800 and 610XLT a few years ago and yes, it really is an awesome rig! 😎🤘

I have one of these too, (albeit slightly modified with Lace pickups, BadAss II bridge and a black pickguard) - I absolutely love it and it's been my #1 'go to' bass for over ten years now...

Chilling in the garden with my Ibanez AGB-140

I had to replace the pickups in an old Columbus Jazz Bass a year or two ago and had a similar problem - the original pickups had radiused corners and the body was routed to match, the replacement pickups had squared corners and wouldn't fit... I managed to (carefully with a little heat) prise the pickups from their covers and swap them around - the pole spacing was slightly different but I managed to get 'round that with a little judicious filing to open the pole apertures allowing the new pickups to be rehoused in the original covers. It all worked out quite well and maybe this method would work for you too..?
