Great strap locks, improvements are better, had no worries and I followed instructions!

There is a heap of misinformation out there and opinions on compression. This is reasonable in terms of how to compress the signal in a guitar effectively. https://www.musicianonamission.com/bass-compression-trick/ All this stuff about must use it as a limiter is generally bunkum - even as a ‘limiter’ it’s still compression, and if it’s being used to stop you ragging and damaging your speaker cones, you must be playing at an incredible volume for this to happen which is beyond what your set up can handle - this will need to be addressed first, before compression. After that and after getting the basics the best way to get compression learnt is to step away from the bass and learn to mix a whole band. Now within all this are key questions How much do you like to tinker? Do you want to control all parameters? Do you like visual metering? What is your budget, new or second hand? How much real estate do you want to give up? This will auto select a range of compressor for the one knob TC Spectracomp where someone has installed the ‘best for most’ parameters, through to an Empress or whatever. You will otherwise get a scattergun of use this and use that one. Filter it out then it’s game on

A question to ask yourself is, do you like to see a visual meter reading your volume spikes and thus aiding you to check technique and compression? If you do, this already eliminates a few options, then you can narrow down within this range

Like you I have the bass building bug - waaaaaay cheaper and you get exactly what you want. Problem is I want to keep them all, and should probably move some on. You have stellar projects too!

Nice - I really like it. I have a P on that Jazz and a Jazz on my P. These are 3 I have built, you’ll see what I mean about staining first on Goldie

Is yours the P graphite or the J graphite? I love both!

Sorry for another post, but if at all you think you may relic be it accidental or by choice, staining the body would before the stealth finish is a decent idea, then it comes through aged as opposed to bright, unless you want that

Oh and definitely counter sink those holes to stop it cracking You could consider bolt inserts, I may do that on my next graphite neck build

Something like a P version of this..... Sorry, no map

Worst kept secret finally out

Trying to work out if you are referring to the true meaning of Woke (In the Woke Compressor brigade) in that you are spending less time with the compressor brigade who are fine citizens alert to social and racial injustice, or the slang meaning that we are ‘with it’ and ‘relevant’. I suppose either way it’s a thanks and a blessing.

Does look interesting

I quite like it as it is!

Having done the graphite necks a couple times - follow the instructions, and use a pillar drill. Biggest tips I can give

I prefer yours but with them miming

Yep I agree- and it’s great to play loud as well!

Liked that a lot nice work

Oooo just found a better lit one on the amp

I do love it!! Key is I can go double mix, clean on pedal mix on amp, mix on pedal clean on amp etc. All different variations for tones, but in general it’s just a double mix!

Genuine question on what’s is a precision’ Is it denotes by the classic body shape no matter what pick up configuration, or where does the allowed leniency go to

Never invite me round, I have big pockets Great collection

I think a big reason for Paulownia is it takes a possible ageing better than Cedar for the SL

Not true I don’t think I think I saw a video with a soft aged cream one will try to find
