  1. Nice one Douglas.
  2. Sweetness Nearly time for me to feck up the drilling of the heel for thread inserts
  3. Vincent Caliper ?
  4. Nice spectator sport seeing as my neck is being crushed in a clamp
  5. *** Post Post Post Horlicks, Werthers Original, Slippers, TV
  6. It's a flat fee for a year, sell as much gear as you want, at any price. Because its a guitar and not a bass, it has to go in the accessories and other items section https://www.basschat.co.uk/forum/21-accessories-other-musically-related-items-for-sale/
  7. Its 20 quid. You can add the payment when you fill in the sales form in the relevant forum
  8. 11.36mm, bottom of A string roller groove to back of base plate. Saddle at lowest point
  9. I'm on it maestro - back in a jiffette
  10. I am Quick Draw McGraw and I'm ready with my digital verniers.
  11. Likewise. John has been a friend long before i ever bought gear from him. Before he started East Uk. He's a one man band, is always inundated with work, as anyone can imagine with his global sales. Phoning is better, assuming he's not on holiday or something.
  12. I doubt many people here, if any at all, that build basses, have worked with an unknown like Richlite. So i doff my hat to you Andy. Lovely work
  13. Wouldnt a DB meter be out front rather than at the back ? Dunno...
  14. As always, the devil is in the detail You must be Beelzebub
  15. You shaving that neck seems quicker than me shaving my neck That head plate is gonna look triff
  16. Good point. Also playing nearer the bridge reduces the effect a bit
  17. In the past , i've blobbed a tiny bit of silicon on the bottom springs and let it go off. Job done. I actually prefer springs to foam.
  18. It starts with the string " touching " the fretboard. Not enough to choke the string though, and then players fingers do the rest, so it's really a combination. So yes, i'd agree with you in the most part that a player can dial it back. Actually, some fretlesses dont sound like a fretless and some do. If the player doesnt " force " the mwah with technique with such fretlesses, then one wouldn't know it was a fretless. Some you can tell its a fretless just plucking open strings.
  19. Dont forget to take your memory pills Neck looking stunning mate
  20. Get stuck in Good luck
  21. Aha, you mean the replacement has different thickness magnets. The wires from the pickup are generally placed next to the exit hole in the pickup rout, which goes to your control cavity. If it were back to front , you'd have the pickup wires running along side of the pickup before they exit, which is not the norm. So if the thicker magnets are next to the pickup wires, then you have your answer. It is alo likely that the bigger magnets are for the D + G, but just place the wires as i said.
  22. It would seem so, yes, but since you stated you're replacing it, i dont really think it matters
  23. Lordy knows what that abomination is but Jones played a Fodera Monarch, not that monstrosity. Even so, he wasnt really known for Foderas, just Wals and Ibanezezzzezezzs. He briefly played a Gretsch which he filed some of the frets down to make a half fretless. Used on one one track, Running on 3, on the first album. He then switched to a fretless Precision for a while before the Wal and then Ibanez
