They will for sure. Get ready then for an assault of images in alphabetical and chronological order in the next days...

I can add a lot of photos of mine, Chris, this will make an impressive collection... But it's your thread.

You know UPS has also its lot of dumb workers. They tried to deliver me a brand new Mesa Boogie combo, I say tried, because when the driver turned the parcel to get it out of the van, you could see on the "invisible" side a hole made by the fork of a ... forklift!?! 🤔😳🫣 And the fork went through the combo, but not the other side of the parcel. 😱🤦 The driver played the innocent role, of course, and I refused the parcel clearly stating the issue on the document!

According to its guts, you'll lose a bit of mids making this Delano sound clearer (more precision in the ... sound rendering) than the Tonerider, but it's no big deal as long as you like the tone.

Not much crowd yesterday...

Listening to the long awaited new album... After having bought a new Pueblo Pink Ray 4 yesterday. 🤦🤣

It's a J-Retro, it's even written there:

It is, but beware with low B string as it's a speaker killer...

It's really very hard to find and back in the day, I ended up asking my friend Christophe Leduc to build me one sixer EUB, a totally unique piece. It only took 7, yes seven, years to get it...

Both options above are good advices.

I guess you meant "can't access"...

Jaco Pastorius anyone? He really destroyed everything with drugs including his talent.

Had a few Jazz Basses from Signature something like 15 to 20 years ago. Excellent stuff for sure and indeed made in Canada as a collaboration between them and Alex Lifeson.

Try lightly sanding the top of the G saddle, it could be a very slight connectivity issue. Or maybe the silk of that string is on the saddle preventing good connectivity (grounding).

Jazz scene again, and before anyone mention it, the amazing Neil Cowley Trio is also from that jazz scene... 😉

Yep, shielding paint is pretty much useless as conductivity is often really poor.

I see that your shielding is not grounded... Ground it as well as the pickup cavity and shield the back of the lid of the electronics compartment that will be grounded by contact with the cavity shielding.

Did you earth ALL shielded cavities including the pickup one? If not, you have the culprit, because if you shield something without grounding it's totally useless (and way too common). And did you shield and ground the back of your pickguard as it plays a role in protecting the whole electronics from electromagnetic fields?

That said, you can listen to the two Lou Reed albums with Rob Wasserman, New York and Magic & Loss. Here played live:

Kamasi Washington is also in the jazz scene, even if he's including some more modern stuff in his music... And it's not what the OP asked for.

Indeed and there is a before and after Esbjörn Svensson in jazz piano and trio, but the OP didn't want jazz nor classical...

Excellent interview, watched it all in one go as it was really interesting. Thanks for sharing @JJTee!
