Where did you buy them ?

No - it was a steer to the cream song ?

Should go down to the crossroads ...

Yes so not divine intervention but more a temptation from the devil then ...

Ok I do know it’s been a while ive finished grain filling finally and I’m sanding off the residue one trick I’ve learned is to wipe white spirit over to show the grain and highlight spots that need more filler or sanding. Monday is final sanding and sanding sealer

take a look here

There’s Lots of links in the transcription section

can you fix some kind of wood bar to the existing holes over the pickup and have it extend backwards ? You could paint it to suit Or just strap your hand to the bass in position and use it as an excuse to never put the bass down again ever

It was good enough for duck dunn in the blues brother's movies. He had a thumb rest fitted further back.

No not yet if you look at violins they have foam bridge muted that you can possibly adapt

I play whatever style comes my way - finger style only i use a p bass and a zoom b2.1 set to ampeg svt, with full fat cab flavouring. The comp is set to fairly subtle - I tried turning it off and the whole thing didn’t sound quite as smooth, throbby, focused so I leave it on. Never heard a bad word yet about my sound ** ** I’m probably deaf ...

I’m NOT a metal fan but I liked this a lot more than I thought I would

Beautiful

I’m seriously thinking of my bursting my own eardrums just so I don’t have to hear it again. If Peter kay did that as a routine we would all say it was too much

The book is excellent

i was lucky that it was a church run OM so a fairly relaxed crowd with the requisite number of kids doing violin and so on.

knowing a host as I do, he told me it was really hard to balance people. I didn't really believe him but I think I understand it better now @nightsun He managed to fit me in with the house guitarist and it turnred into a regular spot that we did. It was seamless but I see why now.

Its going to need a second dose of grain filler to fill in the little pin holes and a small trench on the back that I didnt see. Also a rounded sanding bit to tidy up the lug hoes. I'm on holiday at Bass central in Florida so things may go a bit quiet.

Try a fret saw @BrunoBass I mean one of those saws with a fine toothed blade that you can change direction with easily. Big metal rectangular frame. edit : a coping saw https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coping_saw

well not quite - I went to my first OM and there was a house guitarist who would support a lone vocallst or a group of kids. Not quite the clapton wannabe that others describe, more a support crutch if you need one.

I’ve never tried an actual jam night but am also equally aware of being the “ only bass player in the village” syndrome open mic mic was fun though as I tried lots of stuff I hadn’t heard before

I go for black pearlescent
