  1. I've seen some ideas in the thread about how to transfer the neck shape to the top horn, and wrapping around the neck, etc. I was just wondering if a profile gauge would be any use ? You've probably already thought of this, and i havent a clue if this is useful or not ? I maybe barking up the wrong tree / accidently falling down the wrong stairs
  2. Oh dear. I didnt even look at the 2nd pic. WTF are they playing at. Weird advert
  3. Maybe this... The third wire is probably connected to shielding inside the PUs. With this wiring arrangement, the PUs could be wired in series and still have the PU shielding connected to ground.
  4. So if 3 or 4 people all turn up to buy it...? Wonder how that works out
  5. Ouch. So its a real Fender thats been nicked ...seriously, £150 ? Or It's a cheapo McCopy and someone's applied Fender P logo ?
  6. ooooh, i did say to him a couple of times his notes sound wrong, but i ended up doubting my notes on the rundown because he told me more than once his were the right notes. What is strange is that no one else in the band said those notes sound wrong. I was the only one, so i guessed that i was tone deaf
  7. GENZ BENZ shutllemax 9.2 Such goodness. Perfect for my 2 x PJB C4's
  8. We're currently working on this, and it's pretty much finished. It's just that the keys man thinks i should be playing different notes to the ones i've chosen on a 5 second run down in the track. It's from 1:47 to 1:52 ....it's just 7 single notes for me on bass. I did accept the keys man knows his stuff, so figured i was wrong, but the chosen notes dont all sound correct. I think 1 or 2 seem out. Starts on D string 4th fret F# .... F# G A G F# E then A string 3rd fret C I was playing .. starting on D string F# F# G A F# E D then A string 3rd fret C I even think mine are incorrect
  9. PS Zappa fans, if you didnt know who the genius was who did City Of Tiny Lights stunning claymation, it was Bruce Bickford http://www.brucebickford.com/
  10. Tricky wording then.. he described it as a Precision Bass, rather than a precision instrument. Maybe he's not a bass player
  11. I would say the legality of it is on very thin ice. For a start, he's trying to sell something he doesn't own. I would imagine that would be against the law .. ? I'm sure the owners of the bass would not be too happy either
  12. Nah, just another ebay joker who's not actually as funny as they think they are. Just another zzzzzzzzzzzzz from me
  13. Apologies.. had to post The Slime track. Got one of my all time fave lead guitar wails . Even his lead git work was unique
  14. Overnight Sensation is the killer. I must have had that for over 35 years in one form or another. It was my first intro to the world of FZ Then there's Hot Rats, Zoot Allures, Sheik Yerbouti, Live at the Filmore, Shut Up And Play Yer Guitar ... etc etc Wild stuff
  15. He pushed some boundaries when i saw him live at Hammersmith. But that's what he did. He was a composer, ( hated being called a rock star - he was way above that ) , was anti-drugs, and a complicated , anti-establishment figure. And although some dont get him ( understandable when you take a listen to 200 Motels ) i thought he was monstrously good. I wont be going to see the current show, as i remember him when he was alive and in the flesh, and it was a sad day when prostate cancer took another victim.
  16. Summed up Bob Gobshite in a nutshell, and that awful ditty too.
  17. Wrap your emails in some tasty rum truffle choccies
  18. https://www.ebay.com/itm/BASS-COLLECTION-Fretless-Precision-Bass-Made-in-Japan-With-Hard-Case-/183612501490
  19. This , in a nutshell, but in a Fiesta Red, maple neck and maple fretboard
  20. Although not mine, i have access to my guitar mate's Bass Collection P Bass. Everytime we messa round with tracks and whatnot, i can use the BC P. It's very nice, i must say
  21. You may not have any problems that plagued the standard models. Yours is a limited, so they may have gone the extra mile. Especially since it has the SD party pack. I assume they're factory fitted and not been swapped out by any previous owners
  22. Nothing wrong with the tone of that rig. Very nice, i say. Great playing too, Enrico.
  23. At least i know what to avoid in the future. Very handy list 🤓
