  1. These are the shizzle. This price is the ABSOLUTE shizzle. If it was courierable it would not even be here any more. And I do not even own an amp head. It is full of helium. It will fight with a drummer. I am a miserable git but actually LOL'ed for real when I picked one up. Someone do the right thing, buy it and put me out of my misery.
  2. Obv a complete lightweight
  3. I have not read the whole thread, but there are few games better than ebay roulette.
  4. The thrill of the chase!
  5. Don't be standing in the way of the creative flow! I have a bass ready and waiting for it. I wonder if I could put a series parallel switch in there as well for another flavour? This bass was very close to going active bit this seems more fun. @KiOgon, obviously whenever there is a question mark that is directed at you! The bass at the moment has a vol and a tone and a 3 position toggle for neck/both/bridge. It also has 2 DFA knobs to fill holes that were there before it turned into my bass and a mini toggle which also does nothing. How about vol/tone/G&L magic/series parallel all on knobs and pickup selection on a 3 way toggle?
  6. I KNEW Kiogon would know!
  7. Thanks BB, I was just transcribing what Ed Friedland said here. I am dangerously clueless in these matters.
  8. 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
  9. 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.

  14. 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.
  15. I hate it when that happens
  16. Very stupid slide thing! It is actually an SKB copy, but still the same problem.
  17. 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.
  18. I need some new ones. I could pay £24 for 12 but that hurts. Any cheaper alternatives out there?
  19. I keep looking at this kind of thing and wonder about getting all Variax-y with something and making it make bass patches.
  20. 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.
