    Or a smaller guitarist and a midget drummer. Then you can use relative size perception to fool the audience into thinking that you have a rig to rival Stonehenge in its scale

    I’d go for the sire youre right, I think, about starting with a five For feel but beware that lots of tablature is written for a four and you’ll need to ignore the fifth string sometimes When watching performances or reading tablature

    Isn’t there one too few bass players in that ?

    I agree - I removed the shine from appropriate areas, rolled the edges and chipped some varnish off some end grain it’s enough

    How ? Yer man is very dead

    Hung like a marmoset ...

    If you ever came to sell that ....

    I got all I needed from the title plus the nature of the link I’m formulating a list of “questikns” though

    Pearl ?

    See my build thread - darker primer gives a more yellow top coat. White primer gives blinding white.

    I did vintage white in nitro beware your choice of undercoat colour I used dark grey on advice from here

    Send it back ! What clown has been botching that up .... ?

    Some necks need a long time to relax so be gentle Leigh Gordon’s mex jazz that I bought had a neck like a banana and took ages to come back to the land of playable

    I use those thin plastic inserts that come in Next multi-sock packs just cut to size. Thin, durable, don’t squash much and you can glide them into place by just loosening the neck a little - around 0.7mm thick

    They are, but no on these models or on many jap reissues

    What he said ...

    Given that he never changed his strings and used a foam mute I think any difference in sustain in his case would be negligible his was a 62 which I think is not string thru - correct me if I’m wrong

    🍿 time .... I think lozz had the best answer; it’s easier to change strings. Otherwise imho the difference is negligible

    You did it for valid good reasons, not just aesthetic ones
  22. Geek99
    Now you’ve totally gone and f cking spoiled it

    He doesn’t always play root notes, listen to “please” and “bad” but sometimes that’s just what Is needed and we as bass players should not shy away from that as if we were guitards...
  24. Geek99
    Yes my partner for one. She cannot see A difference except that “that ones a bit bigger”

    I look at your angled neck transition there (which you wouldn’t see on a fender) and I’m reminded of the story about the designer of the spitfire putting the chord on the wing joint simply because it looked right rather than for any objective engineering reason at all
