Has anyone tried one of these ? Ebay item 372177579911 i know it’s only paulownia and not hallowed magic wood of the type breathed on by fairies and anointed with pixie dust as elves dance around it but are they any good for fit and taking paint ? Thin Olympic white nitro probably he gives neck pocket measurements - I have a standard mighty mite neck courtesy of mr “groove harder”

Perfect for u2 then

I'm not elderly though I probably should know better

never too old. You can get lightweight basses. Don't stop.

Genius idea

Looking a bit haggard these days

Is he not a little patch way out west ? *you need to have listened to kd Lang on “home on the range” movie

Sounds like poor earthing rather than EM interference

Do you actually need to shield a p bass ?

Sheryl crow has it all too

I’m getting arthritis in my two plucking fingers - thumb mis probably what I’ll end up doing as I refuse to use a pick .

was the lovely Katie Humble there ?

Impressive is my choice

I'm sorry I should have read the thread more closely. I would have gone for the Fender model as I like the slight click-feel as it drops out of circuit. CTS doesn't do that. I'm using a "Blues tribute" model that I bought from ebay (seller is in the US but ships quickly) - with a fender brass grounding plate in the back of the pup. Here is his link on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/ONLYMUSIC-BLUES-TRIBUTE-VINTAGE-PRECISION/dp/B00DC9FI58 - he does jazz and 51 style also -they're very reasonably priced. It wasn't expensive but it sounds really thumpy yet also woody. I don't have a valve amp but its the kind of tome (when on full) that would overdrive just nicely. I do know from personal experience that through a zoom b2.1 on the Ampeg SVT patch it sounds "totally awesome" (in the words of a young lady there who said wisely "we need more bass around here") , it made cups and glasses rattle quite nicely even at low-ish volume. I'm happy.

Why don’t you get a no load Fender tone pot? As stated above standard size, normal looks but at “9” you can feel a very slight detente as the pot drops out of circuit and the signal bypasses it. I have one in my bass doc p and it’s fabulous http://www.northwestguitars.co.uk/cts-split-shaft-no-load-tone-potentiometer-250k-or-500k-for-stratocaster-telecaster-guitars/?utm_medium=googleshopping&utm_source=bc&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIrouNv4Ld1wIVBLvtCh3xnggzEAQYASABEgLDrPD_BwE http://www.stringsdirect.co.uk//parts-c4/electronics-c698/potentiometers-c109/fender-no-load-250k-solid-shaft-pot-tone-p5295?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIrouNv4Ld1wIVBLvtCh3xnggzEAQYBCABEgLciPD_BwE#fo_c=1949&fo_k=e8fe8947d3958445f1c907a1c89b6e87&fo_s=gplauk?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=

I had one @ £80 where I literally fixed the earth wire and sold it on for more (£130). Gave my partner the money to treat herself to something. Seller happy, buyer happy, partner happy. Yes he should have asked to re-use the photos in an ideal world but that’s life

I have some celluloid Tort for sale with many happy BC buyers pm me if you want some

If I can offer one piece of advice here, its to play slower and with very deliberate control, making sure that you don't do it. That way you will unlearn the bad habit fairly quickly. Speed comes naturally, but playing better at a higher speed comes with control.... young Padawan.

no, the GAS hasn't started yet

you'd be surprised what OM night attendees will tolerate and still cheer wildly

quite the compliment when coming from you, Constantine.

get yourself to an open mic night and take your bass. I guarantee you'll be the only bass player there, even if you don't play firs time. People will talk to you. Girls will swoon** etc I got chatting to someone and we ended up picking a tune on the night each time, looking it up on our phones and doing the best we could with it there and then. A huge rush, and totally legal. ** possibly
