  1. And M'eshell Ndegocello. What a CV!
  2. I MUST HAVE ONE!!!! But seriously, the TC spectracomp comes with gazilions of presets so you can just scroll through until you find what fits. They go for £50 on here and if you do not like it you can flog it and not lose your money. I like them so much I have 3 for different places.
  3. Very nice indeed.
  4. Extra string? Even without that, this is a fabulous piece of work.
  5. I can see the attraction. I know the helix stuff does all sorts of amazing but my head goes fuzzy when faced with millions of options so instead of actually getting something of value done I just ffaff around. This is true for the rest of my life as well.
  6. I wish I had. I was playing Brecon Jazz and an early Amy Winehouse was further down the running order. I could not be be bothered to move from the green room. Shows you how much I know.
  7. Always keep the dignity!
  8. Ha, vintage bridge envy
  9. I no longer own one, but nice and high for proper DB thud is how I would define it. I do not like a low DB action and the NS delivered.
  10. Thanks for the suggestion, but I am going with one of those funky oval Delano ones. There was one on a mini bass in a Bass Bash I went to and I just liked it. And I like the shape. I am shallow that way.
  11. 12 inch padding?!?!
  12. Whack up the bridge and you are a solid 75% of the way there. I used Innovation Honeys and got a lovely thud.
  13. It works nicely enough to pursue the project further. I needs a pickup and a set of strings from Mr Newtone. The cut down ones are not quite ringing true
  14. I have not played my 66 Jazz in anger for 20 years or more. I should sell it. I have owned it for 35 years. I am struggling to let it go!
  15. The saddest sound in the world
  16. It goes from bad to worse
  17. It is 23" scale. I have no idea how it sounds cos it is still with the guy who did the work. I am not sure what he did cos I do not have it in my hands as of yet. I suspect it was Mr Drill. I was too impatient to wait for a new set. Also if they are big enough I can cut down all sorts of strings
  18. I think it is illegal to do any of those to cats but I can see the attraction. I am JOKING!!!!
  19. That case wrapped in a bin bag would protect it nicely for carriage.

    Refin MM Sub 5

    Welcome to my luthiering career!
  21. I have no need for this at all. I am going to buy it now. No, I am not. Stop posting this stuff! I had reached the PP payment option.

    Refin MM Sub 5

    I am glad to know a standard MM plate will work with a bit of encouragement because I will be needing a W/B/W one
