Good job, congratulations! But I think you didn't earth the shieldings (yes, it's a plural). If you didn't, the shielding is useless, so simply solder a wire from the pickup cavity shielding to the electronic cavity shielding and from there to one of the pots case, you'll have perfect isolation and it will be dead silent even with the hands off the strings. 😉

New build thread: Paulownia body • Nitro • Dakota Red • MIM neck
Hellzero replied to Silky999's topic in Build Diaries
It will look terrific! -
Okay, I understand better now. Maybe trying a silicon based "grease" spray would work better as WD-40 is not good for plastic.

What's bothering me is the stickyness that should have disappeared with the new versions something like at least 5 years. These are indeed amongst the best stands made, but they had issues...

ETS Tuning Fork Bass 5 Big (brass material) Rounded chrome, 18 mm strings spacing. Beware that the saddles were modified by a previous owner to go lower (but are working perfectly as is for standard B to G tuning, or you can interchange them to go lower on the treble side, or turn them upside down to start from fresh). The shining chrome bridge plate is new and has never been fitted, only the satin chrome saddles were modified. It can be used for stringing through the body. Check my ads. NO TRADES! NON NEGOTIABLE PRICE! Asking price including fully insured shipping with tracking number, to your home, in these European countries (ask for other countries): Austria, Belgium, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France (excluding French overseas territories), Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Monaco, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom: €100 EUR (£90 GBP is an approximation and I will only accept payment in Euros) and, as it will be asked, the new price is around €200 and they are very hard to source. Shipping to the UK is of course possible and included in my asking price, but with additional customs charges (VAT + other taxes + courier costs), as the UK is now outside the EU, just send me a PM. In perfect working order and brand new condition for the plate, only the saddles have been used on a different bridge. As I've stopped playing bass and focusing on piano only, I'm selling surplus to requirement. Don't hesitate to ask for more details, but, please, before asking read my ad first as the answer is certainly already in it!

Is it an old one?
-
When you say the shielding, you mean the plastic over the wire. If that's it, heating it with anything will allow you to get rid of that protection with enough wire exposure to solder.
-
Where exactly did the wire break? Do you have a photo? If it still visible, you can solder a new wire to it, it's an easy task.

Anyone know a Luthier who refrets Graphite Necks?
Hellzero replied to HeadlessBassist's topic in General Discussion
Nice AI vomit, you should have, at least, erased the last part and read it entirely as there are some typical AI bullshīt in it. Just in case I had my own luthiery workshop... You can't hammer frets in a phenolic (Richlite is not phenolic by the way, AI mismatched it with ebonol) fretboard without splintering the composite and the frets won't sit firmly, they must be glued in with a time consuming special preparation, hence the complexity of the job. I read your stupid AI text, so please stop patronising. -

Ever tried to hammer frets in a phenolic resin fretboard? -
New build thread: Paulownia body • Nitro • Dakota Red • MIM neck
Hellzero replied to Silky999's topic in Build Diaries
I had a 1964 P-Bass in Dakota Red, it looked (and played) wonderfully with its old whitish pickguard/scratchplate. -
Already lovely! 😍

Hellzero replied to HeadlessBassist's topic in General Discussion
Why not use (sell?) it as what it is? A fretless bass... and a very good one. -
Just listening to it right now, Kraftwerk meeting latin music, still excellent after all these years. Sometimes rediscovering his own discotheque is great.

He's also the guy behind this pretty delirious, but excellent project:

Looks like it was the model name of Uwe Schmidt, not the brand: http://guitardesignreviews.com/2011/08/soundboard-interview-with-guitar-designer-uwe-schmidt/

Did you ask Adam? I'll get my coat.

Just found a deadspot on my Dingwall. I am annoyed.
Hellzero replied to kwmlondon's topic in Bass Guitars
This is pure audiophile talking meaning absolutely nothing and wrapped in pseudo science. If it was really doing this, it would mean an even more pronounced dead spot by frequency cancelling. I've been in the audiophile sphere during so many years, and it's the kind of things you read very often, alongside the extraordinary snake oil. I'm still an audiophile, but not an idiophile.
