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

go for it, mister. I have small children; I'll be very much middle aged before I get to do much with my bass, so you're not alone.

can you explain your riposte/approval or disavowal of my point a little better ? I really don't get your meaning.

i too admire his skill and fluency with the instrument. However his usage of it leave me uninspired; its not what I think bass playing is. If you listen to african music where they successfully marry a recurring and prominent bass groove with some lyrical or melodic flourishes, that what I think it should be. Not polite and hidden, not overbearing and pointlessly flashy.

Totally agree

black grain filler is often used on natural or transparent finishes. Thats a really nice piece of wood, you got lucky there.

Or a drummer

He didn’t reply to text

I quite fancy that as a project but he is nowhere near me

I’ll take some

battering cod or haddock - maybe you'd prefer Bread

that will teach him not to choose the lobster....

jamerson at his best.

there's a lot of past threads on this topic - you can get a pretty good idea from reading those.
