Shame they left the covers on!

Easy way to check is that on a 70s spacing bass the rear pickup is in line with the tone control. On a 60s spacer the pickup is in line with the gap between the tone and rear pickup volume knob.

Maybe best to clear your cache and reload the browser. It might have got stuck!

Hi mate no issues here so might be a problem with the source image or your browser.. can you confirm the image is a .jpg? If it says .jpeg try removing the ‘e’ Cheers

Hi sorry no plans to do this currently. Cheers

It’s ok here - possibly your computer settings?

Yep put the links here and a mod will do it for you

Unless you happen to be a full on bass geek like most people on basschat, at which point minor differences become interesting. Otherwise we’d all be playing keyboards or something. We hear the ‘audience won’t notice’ argument a lot but I don’t think many of us are catering exclusively for the audience.

Is it just the way it’s recorded or is he intentionally playing behind the beat? Some parts sound really out!

Hi guys sorry I thought it was tonight for some reason, I think I read 8pm and my increasingly addled mind logged that as the 8th in my calendar. I’m waiting for a new brain but it’s stuck in customs! Sounds like it went well but we’re at the limits of the tech as usual. I use Zoom and Google Hangouts for work and both work well - I’m pretty sure with Hangouts you can have as many people on screen as you like, or have them mini size and the speaker maximised. Zoom has just been updated and now I think is secure. As soon as one of us with a premium account joins the conversation there’s no time limit like the free version (45mins) Hangouts is so easy though - as long as the organiser has a google account they can invite anyone no matter what their email address, and once the meeting is ‘booked’ anyone can join just by clicking the link.

OK great thanks any other questions let me know Thank you for supporting the site

That’s a beauty. Was it difficult to strip down? Also cookie looks just delicious, there must be something in the fact we both have a Vigier and a pug style woofer. The pickup looks repairable but like you say, you might be better off putting something else in. The dimensions are a little awkward but perhaps a custom maker could use the same cases? Otherwise I think I found some Barts that are the right size. I believe they’re known as ‘Washburn’ sized.

Brilliant looking forward to seeing it. My own Vigier is a bit of a triggers broom as you might know but the magic of these basses is in the ‘chassis’ which works as an amazing platform for your chosen electronics.

Not sure RE the pickups but I’d love to see some pics of the refin process!

Been playing ‘Like a Prayer’ this afternoon. Never really listened to it before but great fun.

Done. Think it was in jest but still. Thanks

I know what you mean but if for example you're using a brass or well made, robust nut then the string exiting at a sideways angle has no ill effect any more than the string leaving at a downward angle which people regard as beneficial. Aesthetics aside, of course.

I think it look like it's broken!

I love this one. Currently up for sale if you want to buy the ultimate P in classic black/maple combo!

Let’s see some more ‘go to’ basses! It’s interesting to see that for several people, your ‘go to’ is a relatively cheap instrument. It just goes to show that a great bass is the one you feel most comfortable with, or the one you normally have to hand. I must admit I feel more ‘loose and relaxed’ playing a bass which owes me less than a super high end bass. I guess it’s a bit like driving an old banger which you’re comfortable to park anywhere. There’s something inherently fun about that.

Good game. Shows how flexible the Lakland is.

I don't have S on my tuner - I always wondered what I was missing!

It only makes sense if people think a Sadowsky with the preamp off doesn’t sound like a Sadowsky, which of course it does. We’re back to the whole ‘EQ can do anything’ myth; someone will be along shortly to say it’s all in the fingers!
