[quote name='andydye' timestamp='1404982911' post='2497467'] that is superb, exactly the kind of idea I was after! I've got some self adhesive foil, spot on! [/quote] It's GOT to have conductive glue though I Had just this same bridge wire issue with a squier VMP - rock solid solution. Spray the copper wire out then stick it down with sticky foil

Regarding the bridge wire, I have some copper shielding foil with conductive glue - I just stuck The earth wire to the body with it and then screwed the bridge on tight Why don't you carefully remove the OE pots and put a Klogon loom on ?

Yes - someone really liked first position judging by that wear on the necks lower edge

There are lots of different types Take some pics and post them here perhaps ? Maybe they'll set it up for you if you pay cash-it's an ok price for a shop tho

Oh dear - I will need a new keyboard now.

Bought some flats from pow_22. He must have nailed them to a laser beam as they got here really quickly

Nice

I had a German made corvette of similar vintage The neck was very thin indeed - too thin for me but build quality was awesome Things to look out for 1. Does the plug cut out the sound if you wiggle it (when plugged into an amp) ? Common problem but maplin sell a decent replacement part 2. Has the nut broken ?

I'm not sure a Skype lesson would have the same feeling of immediacy but I'm willing to be convinced

Good idea - wish there was one around here

[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1404410938' post='2492424'] These pickups were reported to be US Standard Issue. I saw an e-mail from Fender over on Talkbass confirming this. Don`t know if it`s something they have continued with though. What I do know is those basses sound great, so the pickups are doing a good job. [/quote] I did hear thy were used in custom shop basses at one point - punch above their weight anyway Just saying / kept your eyes on eBay there are always pup bargains to be had

[quote name='police squad' timestamp='1404399615' post='2492315'] for £8 you can't really go wrong [/quote] One other bidder - that was all. The bass doc was quite impressed with its sound , and he owns a 63 p

I got a pup from a classic 50s P on eBay for £8 Something like that would do ?

Yes I believe it's more than enough - especially if you include used items. A good jap fender is a match for most people IMHO

precisions are the T34 of the bass world - they [i]just [/i]work

[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1404295396' post='2491173'] I like the Barbie-on-a-cuddly-toy shot ... [/quote] thats barbie's pussy ,,,, Philistine.... don't you know [i]anything [/i]?

Yes thanks - the tiny scratches are quite well done by a scourer, and they are also good for aging plates. On the body I try and rub in the same direction that a limb would move over it to get it looking right I'm working from home today so might get a moment to try the zoom to see what it can do in my break. The bdi is only 26 pounds on amazon new but it might come to that. Thanks for the feedback
