  1. Interesting that wish planks auto-mate all the wrong notes in all the wrong places.
  2. You can polish a turd, no probs. It'll just look like a polished turd.
  3. It was aerosol paint that i bought
  4. I didnt know that paint was restricted, but it hasnt stopped me getting paint in the post, as recently as a couple of days ago.
  5. Even the tragic excuse for a courier, My Hermes, dont get as low as 40%. 95% sounds attractive. But if you send 100,000 parcels a year , then 5,000 people are going to get disappointed
  6. Until you look at the photo on a slightly larger scale, and then you realise Nancy Johnson is 100% correct
  7. Thats the point though - all couriers can be and have been unreliable at one point or another. You'll find rants about every courier known to man on this forum, so what do you do ...never ever send another parcel ? The trouble is, humans are involved. They/we make mistakes and will do for the rest of time. Sometimes as uk lefty says, its the sytem that breaks down rather than human cok ups.. Doesnt help anyone in that situation, but its not going to stop
  8. Kerchiiiiiiiiiiing ...!! S2 Matrix 18v
  9. Its not in Off Topic. Its In Gen Dis
  10. Excellent.
  11. Thats my reasoning for asking. If the saw goes across a tight radius, say a Jazz, in a straight cut, then the middle bit of the cut will be lower than the edges, and as you say Maude, there will be a slight hollow under the middle of the fret. I dont know either if its ok or not. Never built a neck
  12. They are so neat looking, very tidy Andy
  13. How does this work if you have a tight radius, say like a Jazz. Will the saw " curve " over the radius so that the fret cut is the same depth all across the fretboard ?
  14. They look much better than yer bog standard screws, thanks to @Andyjr1515 Here's what they look on my AJR bass
  15. Its going back, but blimey guv, what a bluddy faff. I've been told that i must pack it properly ( they're arranging courier ) cos they wont be responsible for damage occurred in transit if its badly packed. Sure, fair enough. Thats ok with me. I then tell them i can pack well, but once its left my house, its out of my control, and i cant be responsible for YOUR courier throwing it around and causing damage, however well packed it is. They then say they're not going to send a courier, because i've not taken responsibility for the parcel all the way back to them ? WTF ? I told them i've packed and sent basses and cabs many times, and recently sent a cab to the Czech Rep. ( true ) and i know how to pack. They've arranged collection for Mon, but jeeeez....if the courier drops it from a great height, or reverses over it in a truck, no amount of packing will save it. But it will still be my fault.
  16. Its already in the notable deaths 2020 thread - 4 hours ago
  17. No worries chap - thanks for posting Its going back to HW Audio who have responded and they'll collect it, fix it, and return it. Its only 5 months old
  18. Yeah i did. There was nothing connected
  19. If it's any extra help, the volume on the amp can be completely off, or maxed out, and the level of loud humming doesnt change
  20. This sound is what happens when i turn on the amp. Its loud. There's nothing plugged into the amp, but connecting a bass makes no difference. Any ideas, tech savvy peeps ? Might need head phones ( or not ) amp.mp4

    David was great to deal with, and would easily deal with again. Thanks David !
  22. Its been moved since. It was in site issues
  23. .
  24. I'd put money on the fact that EVERY courier has had their problem days. The world is not perfect and neither are couriers. I've had horrendous problems with Hermes, and that wasnt me using them, it was a seller on Ebay, which i had no control over. I recently used Eurosender to post a 30kg parcel to the Czech Rep and it went fine and was cheaper than any other service. But rarely do people post saying my parcel was delivered and nothing went wrong. It happens, and will keep on happening. Thats no help if you're the one thats been messed about , but thats the way of the world
