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. -

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!

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. -
You'll also have to be a 4/4 player, too bad I'm a 9/8 one.

Hellzero replied to kwmlondon's topic in Bass Guitars
I've read the whole article and it sounds like an audiophile advert, so a lot of bullshīt... According to them a FatFinger will only move the dead spot when their item, which is exactly the same principle, will suppress it: come on... That said Fender's advert comments about their FatFinger (which was not their idea, but they bought the brand) also contain a lot of bullshīt, but at least it's half the price and we know what it really does : it simply adds mass to the headstock, changing the resonance and moving the dead spot to a way less annoying place on the neck. -

Hellzero replied to kwmlondon's topic in Bass Guitars
The dead spot is inevitable on instruments as it's linked to their resonant frequency and every material has one. You could add some weight on the headstock to move it further away so it won't annoy you, something like the (Fender) FatFinger can do wonders and it's easy to place and remove. -
This top is just looking amazingly ... amazing. 😍

If you are frustrated by the pieces, then move on. And as @LawrenceH said, come back after a while and you'll be amazed how "easy" they were, simply because you've learnt something more difficult. It's indeed all in the mindset. That said, piano is not an easy instrument at all, but you can play it.

You see, the effect of the title is already working: That piqued your interest.

Don't!

Just for the record, the S.U.B. is not the sub level of SBMM, but were originally made in San Luis Obispo, California, from 2003 to 2006, as an entry series for the original Stingray, then they were manufactured in China and now in Indonesia as the entry level of the SBMM. Music Man stopped the contract with HHI/Davitt & Hanser, that started in the mid to late 90's to 2008, who were manufacturing the OLP basses in China and then in Indonesia. Since 2008 the SBMM are manufactured by Praxis Musical Instruments.
