Bassist for Kylie Minogue - BBC Radio 2 Hyde Park Concert
Cuzzie replied to Cuzzie's topic in General Discussion
Afraid not young man, it’s a guy called Jamie Sefton, really talented guy. He has had the chair for Amy Macdonald. Used to be in One Eskimo, and they recently had a reform and played at the Bedford pub in London in the London music week. At that gig he was playing bass and a flugal horn at the same time, one hand on each, that takes some doing. -
Bassist for Kylie Minogue - BBC Radio 2 Hyde Park Concert
Cuzzie replied to Cuzzie's topic in General Discussion
Should have seen this coming........ Yep, not everyone’s cuppa I gets that, but the bassist had a nice rig, well nice basses and was tight with a great sound, that’s the main purpose. But even if you do like Kylie, I am happy for you to confide in me...... -
Bassist for Kylie Minogue - BBC Radio 2 Hyde Park Concert
Cuzzie replied to Cuzzie's topic in General Discussion
Prob on iPlayer for anyone else if they want. Like or loathe the genre, gotta respect Kylie -
The bassist for Kylie is killing it with playing nd tone tonight, if you are not watching live, worth watching her set. Sandberg basses, a 4 string aged orange TM, a Fretless Tobacco TM 5 string. @alexclaber should be proud as he is using a Supertwin and @Darkglass should also be proud as he is using the M900. Rich fat tone for days, love them Sandberg’s

Thanks again i do have a counter sink I have found just now just need to check my other drill bits. Really appreciate people taking the time to help
-
@HazBeen thanks so much, i’ll drill that 4.5mm hole then get a 5mm to just widen the lacquer part of I get you correctly so to stop the threads fracturing the graphite
-
You guys probably all know this but a Fisch Forstner Wave Drill bit was an absolute revelation for a ferrule hole
-
I am getting quite excited now, very close to doing this part having slowly amassed the various bits!
-
Thanks buddy I have the instructions sent so that’s all good, i’ll Compare incase they are different versions The Drill speed was the other key thing, currently I have it set fast for wood, I was thinking I needed the slower one, so I can change the belt. I take it a wood drill bit is best also
-
Thanks for your input, and I get where you are coming from. I suppose that if the ‘standard’ hole went wrong I could move to a threaded insert as that would require a larger calibre bore anyway? if I have that right
-
Just to complete the picture it’s Seymour Duncan APB-1 pick ups
-
Cheers mate. I looked into a lot of things and the Moses Graphite necks recommend inserts, but I don’t think Status do, certainly they do not say anything in their instructions, and also I think there may be a block of wood behind the Graphite shell. I suppose the safest would be smallest hole first (after marking it) and see what the screw does.

Morning guys. Doing my first bitsa P bass and I have a blank Status neck ready to drill. I do have a Pillar Drill for the job. Quick question for any that can help out there. The USA body had pre-drilled Holes 5mm, and the screws I have glide through, which I am happy with. Doing a test hole on a piece of wood the screws bite with a 4mm hole Just about to match the holes and drill the graphite neck heel. Do I Drill the hole at 4mm so it bites when screwing (having slightly chamfered the entry point not to split the lacquer) or does the Graphite behave differently and you use a slightly bigger hole? This will be the finished as ever, no pics no bass cheers!!

@discreet I feel for you buddy, and budgets are private, but you can with your eyes peeled get a right good bargain on them in the 2nd hand market. Mine were both under half price of what they were new and only a few years old. Seen Electra’s in the 300’s and I have seen full Sandbergs with ageing even dip into the 600s in great condition. Less time breaking into @ead‘s practice room, more time on paper rounds and a massive penny jar- 29 replies

@ead I think they are different again from the black label pick ups, specifically for the tone capsule to complement its EQ, if I find any more out, i’ll let y’all know Of course that Grand Dark is also 35”, is pau ferro - it’s really well thought out, a mate has one, initial impressions are it’s sitting alongside one of his masterpieces and his Umbo- 29 replies

My double ball Status strings for my Hohner are right good. If there quality transcends the range they will be just fine IMO

That configurator kills me every time. I did not dig them before but the TM is really growing on me, massively fast. The new Grand Dark actually makes a heap of sense, the Darkglass tone capsule is pretty good, and they have specially wound pick ups for this bass. Throw in Masterpiece ageing on it.......it would slay- 29 replies

Aye, great to hear. You will not hear a bad word about a Sandy from me, they are just amazing. The basses I have are extremely polite and never tell me how clunky my playing is, and somehow make me sound better than I am. legend company- 29 replies
