I'm going there in about a month...

@dannybuoy I had the same experience with exactly that bass - mine was white.

picture might be a good idea ?

@maxfox you're doing just fine. English is complicated

Indeed it does make sense fess up time: these are stated to be from a geddy lee bass. I have no reason to disbelieve it

just take the shine off with some wirewool , or the green/rough side of a pan scourer .

well, if I'd said "phwoarr nice ti..." I could understand the fuss and as the father of two stunningly pretty little girls, agree, but I didn't. if you type @ and wait a moment you get a list of users to suit and you can drill down. Make sure you click on their avatar and the link goes orange. They then get a nudge to look. Bit like facebook

steady on there, you'll get the same treatment from the misogyny police that I did for suggesting that one of @wateroftyne 's fellow performers was cute

Just shield it with foil - simples

I've bought some jazz bass pickups on ebay. They have codes 048612 & 048613 underneath which I know are fender codes for the bobbins - they have "59" or "se" handwritten on in white (its a little unclear) Standard spec for US jazz is allegedly Neck 8.3 kohm and Bridge 7.8kOhm they look fine visually I used a multi-meter and measured at the soldered contacts neck 6.9 k Ohm bridge 7.57 k Ohm can anyone tell me what the effect of the resistances being reversed (ie relatively between the two positions) is ? If I've measured wrongly please advise where I should correct my technique - I used the 20 kOhm range. thanks

not all MIM pickups are created equal look underneath and you'll find codes to look up

actually I quite like that strat. Those are quite brave designs (I particularly like the pink les paul) although I do prefer the look of the epiphones slightly

I forgot “dancing Queen “with ABBA @4000 thinking on same lines I see

I too would choose suspicious minds. @Beedster Also Folsom Prison Blues with Johnny Cash - I totally flew playing this alone with an acoustic guitarist and it would just be ace playing this with Johnny Cash if he were less dead. Crowd went mental.

i think Duck only smoked a pipe in the Blues Brothers movie.

"change" also

I was just saying she is pretty 😕 nice thread WoT

Could you maybe lever the bridge down or something ? A little like a drop d tuning peg

Lady in black is a bit cute

they ask a lot of money for their product and pretty much only because its made in America. Whilst I appreciate that Americans are paid more than the Chinese; its not proportionately better for being made in the US, or each one absolutely perfect . Its not like each one is carefully blessed by magic pixies upon completion. Just priced out of its market. I'd say the same about US fenders. I had an epiphone les paul that blew a real gibson out of the water once i'd replaced the pickups. Worth the extra to go Gibson? I didn't feel so.

i recommend the "blues tribute" pickup from "Only Music" on ebay - cheap and very fat

I'm planning a mary kaye style see-thru white for my jazz

Excuse my ignorance but how is a pit bull different ?

One of my favourite tunes

unless its a fairly patient cat that doesn't mind a few nasty knocks on the head. I walked past Cranes when I was in Cardiff a few years ago, very interesting stuff in the window.
