I’ve been back there since, ran into guitarist and apologised for the train wreck. The compère had asked a local dep to give me some tips (they both think I just lack confidence though I’d add “talent”) and I asked my drummer buddy to spend five minutes drumming for me so I can get used to it without a noisy guitarist top guys

Meaning it won’t beep?

Why would he ? He is clearly has excellent taste and appreciates tort

Strings arrive tomorrow or Monday but for sone reason the body doesn’t seem to have an earth wire to bridge

Just the pickups at the wire for some reason I couldn’t get the connectivity tester to read across both coils but resistance did

I thought the pup was broken as I was just getting “1” on my meter but I tried the 20k ohm range and was getting 20.2k across both each was around 10.4 individually is that normal ? It’s a Seymour Duncan baselines model

So you can give your own point of view ? So we can understand your situation better and adjust our expectations? edit - read thread in full, hope things are better for you

What should reduce if I turn each pot to zero? Excuse my ignorance

Full disclosure I don’t have an amp right now and I’m using a zoom pedal to hear the bass I’m building strings arriving Monday but I want to test each part can I use a meter to check the whole thing from the jack socket ? thanks for your help both

Obviously black wire black lead, red wire white lead but which dial settings ? I know Henries aren’t on the dial. Resistance I assume but which range ? thank you

Because other people do. They continue to buy and so drive the price up and arguably feed the perceived desirability. I see only antique value myself.

Yes - I’ll PayPal you £10 tonight, I’ll expect it on my doormat by Monday though

As with @neepheid my Scottish twin from another mother, I really don’t see the point. If that one individual bass hanging right there on the wall is a great, acoustic, resonant fabulous thing then pay the asking price but if not just move on and try the squier vintage modified or sire v7 because they’re probably equally good with at least one zero less on the asking price

There are no prices ?

It is. Tar and feather time. 🔥
