  1. I'd just say "lots of time spent playing along with the metronome", but the clapping idea above sounds interesting.
  2. I used to have a fanned fret shortscale made by prosebass originally. It was teeny yet sounded immense due to the pickups in it, maybe fanned fret would help you ? Wasn't all that expensive
  3. These are now surplus to need. Hand made by matte_black on this forum, they can be series or parallel. They have internal shielding, and so have three connectiors of which two go to earth. Currently wired for series and give a nice fat jazz bass sound with no background noise or hum. no visible polepieces so a smooth black face. standard jazz bass sizes, fitted a CIJ 62 reissue perfectly. will load pics tonight. Looking for £30 plus postage at cost for these beauties. Obviously you can collect if you're local.
  4. bump due to edit - the bass is now standard and original
  5. You can't see it too well in the photo, but its a lovely piece of rosewood and came up nicely with some lemon oil
  6. very nice, especially with the mojo, but too many strings.
  7. Mine is the basswood one - and its a bit beat up
  8. Thanks Took it to a lesson on Saturday and the teacher absolutely loved it
  9. Being offered a trade for a 96 jap p 62 reissue
  10. Ok - yes just spoke to him . He meant roadworn with a small r. I don't know much about highway ones- anyone care to enlighten me ? I assume they are genuinely US made, he says its nitro
  11. It has a badass bridge , thinking its maybe a roadworn with a US neck stuck on
  12. Ok any top tips on how to tell an American vintage from a mex Roadworn ? Puzzled by US serial
  13. Hi I've been offered one of these, and its a US according to the seller. I did think they were made in Mexico . Can anyone provide any information about (early?) US models, or any likely differences between us and mex models? Also interested if anyone knows any weak or strong points ? Serial number indicates US 07/08 Thanks
  14. Wow. Very nice. How did you learn this ?
  15. I'm not in a band, mainly due to free time issues. When I get practice time, I mostly playalong on Amplitube/IRig I have discovered "playalong" books recently though - which make learning much faster as you get a guide track that you can mix the bass out, or down
  16. Only the other musicians, and also the guitarists. Although the call centre director surprised me recently by commenting on the "nice 62 reissue jazz" on my avatar.
  17. "Would really like this but need to sell one first" bump
  18. Slight difference in gauge causing alignment issues on the neck?
  19. [quote name='the boy' timestamp='1363241594' post='2010256'] If using an I Phone, simply tap the top of the page to bring you to the top of the page. No need for scrolling. Try it a few times, you will see what I mean. [/quote] Top tip Thanks
