I'm trying to think how one would cut a slot in those screws... presumably with a hacksaw. But even a mini hacksaw needs enough space for forward and backwards motion, and with the screws flush to the body, i dont see how that could be done. Maybe a dremel with a hard cutting disc ? This would negate the need to have space for a hacksaw to work

Plenty of good suggestions, especially the triangular butt of a file or what not. This is the cheap version of an Easy Out tool. If you're only going to do this once, then those methods will work as long as you can drill a decent hole in the screw shaft. Just for referebce, the photo is my own easy outs, and you do the same method as posted above. Drill a hole suitable for the size of the Easy Out. You'll need a smaller one than i have here. Tap the Easy Out bit down into the drilled hole and wind it it back out, either with the proper tool, like those that come with a tap and die set, or some Mole Grips.

Yup, there's a border that can be seen around the text, because the grey is a different shade. So yes..

Yes, different anchoring positions is something that 2 pickup basses allow, assuming the edge of the pickups are comfortable. Jazzes are not

That looks fine for the job, as long as you only play in one position. I tend to play in 2 positions, depending on the tone required If you play in a fixed position , then your problem is solved. Cant be bad

A real scholar. Some freebie cables received 1st class post. Thanks Paul, you diamond

Have you seen the length of that guy's fingers ? Freak ! Only people with fingers the length of breadsticks can play that bass

Brilliant

You dont have to be good at anything to own anything you want. Spend YOUR money where it makes you happy. There's no laws on that.

Mike's work is just fabulous. Top man too, and not just cause he's an Essex bloke like wot i is.

Another highly professional build, Rob. Excellent

Cheers your woodness - found it

Hmm...i thought i'd do the same but couldnt find the ' select delete ' box. I am blind in both ears Where is it Woody ?

Jeeeez. There's always one. It was just an experiment. Some guy messing around for the sake of it. He didn't string it with guitar strings to make it sound like a bass. He would have strung it with bass strings if he wanted it to sound like a bass. Have a Millers or something and relax.

That's some post code you have there Frank

You could do worse than try emailing Clive Button who was the sole designer, from Series 6 on, TE bass amps/ combos and acoustic combos plus a host of other TE gear for the next 12 years from 1985 Bass - Series 6 range, SMX range, SMC range, 7 Band range, 12 Band range, GP7 Pre-Amp, GP12 Pre-Amp, AH150, AH200, AH300, AH350, AH500, AH1000-12, Valve Series, VA350, VA400, VR400, Twin, Quatra, Hexa, Commando range, Boxer range, PPA power amplifiers, Powered Sub 15, Bass effects pedal range, MP11 etc: Acoustic - TA100R, TA50R, TA200R, TA Concert range, TA60, TA35, TA30, Acoustic Cube, TAB100 (Acoustic Bass), Acoustic PA 16 channel powered mixer system, Acoustic PA 12 channel powered mixer system, TAP1 acoustic pre-amp pedal, in fact everything that came out of Trace Elliot all the way through to 1997 I dont know whether he's still active, but i had an email chat with him some 8 or 9 years ago about my series 5 4x10 combo, but as he told me, he didnt design the series 5, but was helpful nonetheless [email protected]

A Pedulla Buzz is it ?. Fab bass !

Quite right. We save it for the likes of despicable and dangerous muppets like Nugent. The midwife should have kept the placenta and tossed Nugent away

I'd buy one of the ones in the builders forum just for its looks, regardless whether its solves a problem or not. But not at those prices, no siree. The most i ever paid for a bridge is the Schaller 3D i'm selling, just under 90 quid

Just do this above
