  1. Awesome things these. Had one, actually owned it twice, bloody excellent for the money. Have a bump on me, afraid I only have a 78 Ray in Black for sale otherwise....
  2. Lots of sanding, shaping and more sanding. First coat of oil down on the natural one. 50-50 coat first and let that dry overnight. I am going to paint on, sorry gents! Really enjoying it so far and the grain on the walnut one is lovely.
  3. I believe I have this bass now. It is very good indeed.
  4. Exactly what I did, but on all my P basses, oh and the Stingray too
  5. Bought for a project but change of direction so up for grabs. Precision /Tele '51 style bass 20 fret neck. Canadian maple neck and fretboard 38.5 /39 mm at nut (same as Jazz Bass) and 63.5 / 64mm at butt. Finished in vintage amber nitrocellulose lacquer. 20 2.7mm medium jumbo cupronickel frets and abalone fret dots.Double truss rod with 4mm allen wrench adjustment at headstock.Side dots 2mm black and 16"/ 406mm radius.
  6. Ah man it’s amazing. I’ve used the wood for mates guitar, telecaster shape with P90 pick ups, he uses it for Fu Fighters too, and it sounded mighty. It’s now his number 1 go to which is what got me thinking. The P sounded huge with the ‘62 pups and wiring/capacitor. Can not wait. Got a 2 week space between the gig today so that’s my target!
  7. Yeah got the pics and stuff too bud. Hopefully have one complete this week. Sounds bloody great too!
  8. Well dry run on each was a success so more shaping and sanding on the bodies and hopefully get the natural finish one done next week (May paint one). The ‘62 custom shop pick ups sounded mighty. Natural finish, what do you guys recommend? I use OSMO polyx oil on furniture and stuff so that may work? Also heard gun stock oil. Really want to bring the grain out now. Many help appreciated
  9. Yep, took me almost 30 years to realise the sound and bass I wanted was pretty much the same one I started with. P basses rock... I have 5😂. Oh and if I were you I would look for a Nate Mendel Sig series ( Sure there's one on here, just sold mine ). Amazing quality, sound, nice neck and 40mm nut and plays killer. You wouldn't be disappointed.
  10. I don't think its an issue. certainly not loud loud! I would doubt if you would ever notice unless in a studio and even then its not that bad. I certainly never stopped and thought, that fan is awful noisy? Maybe I got a super quiet one?😉😁
  11. Thanks dude, yeah it’s a beauty. May just put a neck back on it
  12. Yeah I’m going to rehearsal Thu so will try it out, all being well I’ll gig it on Sat
  13. Play a lot of festivals with Fu Fighters, and another rock based covers band. The Aggie and 610 is unbelievable with a P bass and flats which is my main rig, but the HB is bloody good! May use it Sat in Cleethorpes
  14. Just bought the Handbox head from Clarky. Great comms and super quick courier to me too! Its exactly as he said, pretty much brand new too and in the loveliest box too. Super well packaged. Thanks again mate
  15. Well, its here and good god!!! Just a quick noodle through the Barefaced 610 and it is MIGHTY!!! No need to go into mega details as its been covered in this thread better than I will be able to explain but if you get a chance, try it! Buy it! The tone and sound/heft is mega. I was expecting something decent but blimey its good, I mean really good. Simple to use and my word! Looks like it may get a run out with the Fu's this weekend at Cleethorpes Fake Fest to see how it performs at 'louder' 😂 And I mean for the price......
  16. No longer needed so up for grabs, price includes UK Postage. The Empress buffer+ was designed to be the complete I/O interface for the pedal board, while maintaining the highest fidelity to your guitar's signal. Signal loss due to long, un-buffered cable runs is an issue that has plagued guitar players for decades. The primary goal of the buffer+ is to eliminate this signal loss, ensuring that your tone is unchanged by your cables. Additionally, all the connectivity of your pedal board is consolidated to make set up quick and easy. The buffer+ also has a very handy set of features that make life just a little better. Noise filters, input pads, switchable clean boost and input loading are all powerful tools available on the buffer+
  17. Mine arrives today thanks to @Clarky selling me his almost unused R400! Cant bloody wait 🤘
  18. Ha ha I gigged it Saturday and was sweet 😉
