  1. I KNEW Kiogon would know!
  2. Thanks BB, I was just transcribing what Ed Friedland said here. I am dangerously clueless in these matters.
  3. So, the LukeFRC's L1000 I played in the Bassbash has all the usual G&L action going on. One switch was the so called OMG mode. This involves (apparently) putting a capicitor across one of the coils which cuts the treble so there is a percieved bass boost. It was an attractive noise. Would this be doable on a Jazz? TIA
  4. I used to own a Bravewood. I also own a 66 J. The Bravewood scratched exactly the same itch. It also taught me that P nut width is for me. But that was not the fault of the Bravewood.

    You have exquisite taste.
  8. I keep going on about these. The only bass I have tried where the Piezo pickup actually does what you hope it does. Lovely open and rich sound. But I am just not playing it. Life is too short for wall hangings. A 35" scale lightweight bundle of joy. EMG pickup with Vol, bass, treble and sweepable mids. Also Piezo vol and tone control. Pics this evening.
  9. Very stupid slide thing! It is actually an SKB copy, but still the same problem.
  10. Thanks, but sadly they are not your bog standard caged nut https://www.gear4music.com/Recording-and-Computers/SKB-Rack-Mount-Hardware/YL4?origin=product-ads&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI-IKszqGM4wIVbwHTCh3mtQu4EAQYAiABEgIVivD_BwE I suspect they may be M5 bolts as well.
  11. I need some new ones. I could pay £24 for 12 but that hurts. Any cheaper alternatives out there?
  12. I keep looking at this kind of thing and wonder about getting all Variax-y with something and making it make bass patches.
  13. What I like about the FI is that I have other people to struggle with that stuff for me who then just present patches which enable me to say "that is ace, I can use that" instead of "this pedal looked ace but I have owned it for 2 years and can still not make head nor tail of it". This is not being lazy. Too many parameters make my head all fuzzy. I can not even read piano music because there is too much going on.

  15. Strangely, that is what is doing it for me. Just for a change. Not that it is ever going to happen.
  16. I have not looked in the basses for sale forum for 4 or 5 weeks.
  17. .......... but I am a sucker for beauty. https://ritter-instruments.com/item_info.php?i=856
