Here they are, you can buy a whole set for £10 which includes fret and side markers https://glowtec.co.uk/fret-finders/

I remember seeing a thread (I think on BC) about side dots, where a few guys had added glow in the dark stickers (small round dots) over the side dots to overcome this problem.

Anyone got any experience of a PJ with flats, played through just the bridge pup? Wondering if it loses much of the bite?

Yep, this would be my choice too

Oh, and a chrome fender decal on the headstock. Clean af 😎

I personally like them as they are, they tie in with the fret dots for me

I think you're right, there's also a Duff (GnR) sig which has it too. I really like it, I've got it on one of my Sandbergs, just looks cool to me.

*cough* black headstock *cough* 🤘🏻

Reminds me of the joke about the man who goes to the doctor complaining that his penis has turned orange. After running a load of tests, the doctor is out of ideas, so asks the man what he does for a living. Nothing, says the man, just spend all day eating wotsits and watching porn.

I don't think that's cruel at all. Everyone in every field can benefit from the experience of other, more experienced people.

Can't argue with that 😁 In all honesty, if we weren't downsizing I'd have taken this off your hands by now, cracking bass 👍🏻

Cheers! It does sound fantastic to be honest. Not sure what the P pickup is (the gallery guys suspect it's a quarter pounder) but changing the controls to stacked (thanks @KiOgon) has really improved the tone. I'm a bit gutted cos we're in the process of moving to a slightly smaller house (compromise made to be near the sea) so I've taken it and some of my other basses to my mums for safe keeping, so I've not had much time to play it. Worst thing is, exchanging contracts is taking forever so I've been without it for 2 months for no reason 🙄😂

60s MiM Jazz with P pup and stacked knobs. Not exactly what I was after, but I got a good part ex deal at the Bass Gallery.

Yeah fair play, I had that itch which I had to scratch. Well worth it 👍🏻

Actually, there's a very nice TT4 (old shape) on the marketplace at the moment. Fair price too...

Look out, I can see a jazz gas attack coming your way 😂

Are you missing the extra string?

That's very cool! Can't believe you've gone 4 string and Fender!! 👍🏻

What did you get mate, another Sandberg?

Don't feel you need to stretch, you can move your hands, it's just a case of reducing the movement to a minimum

+1 👍🏻

Ahem...

You know what would like nice? Orange! 😉

@Ian McFly I've had an Elwood and can honestly say I never noticed any issues with the string tension. It was a lovely bit of kit tbh, played great.
