  1. I have a Tele which made me appreciate a belly cut. I had someone put a belly cut into it. I get the whole forearm cut but that would make a real mess of the paint and I have not actually noticed that I need one now the belly cut is in place.
  2. Bergantino IP series. Quite old hat by now due to not being made out of helium. But just a FABULOUS piece of kit. Or buy a decent 12" active wedge. By decent I mean £500+. And useful for all sorts of things as well as Bass
  3. That is what I suspected. By now I could live with the Peaveys shortcomings.
  4. That is a long wait. Decades ago I had a Peavey Midibass. I wish I still had it. On the midi front it was superb. It sucked deeply as a bass guitar. I would love one of these.
  5. Bending notes totally works. Just for me, feeling the winds move over the fret was a strange feeling. But that was just my left hand's experience.
  6. There is a weakness in your argument here, but your enthusiasm cannot be faulted. Do you work for the present UK government?
  7. I am on a quest for one bass to rule them all. It has been a long quest. On this quest I bought a Sklar Dingwall. There were lots of great things about, amongst which was a neck profile which REALLY did it for me. But I discovered that I like to do side to side vibrato. I knew that I do it, but had not realised how much. The roundwounds moving across the frets was a total sensory non starter for me. Very odd.
  8. I am sure Belgium has some fine pickup winders!
  9. To the Post Office. Post to https://www.catswhiskerpickups.co.uk/. Job done.
  10. Rewinding what is in there would not cost a fortune.
  11. Disco Decks to plug into your laptop and play those pumping beats.
  12. While we are discussing the Macca/Hofner interface, any opinions on a cheap and cheerful functioning copy of one of these? I just fancy one. I have played one but cannot for the life of me remember what it was.
  13. We actually have F and FF. No, I am not talking about dynamics.
  14. No guts, no glory LP man!
  15. Da da-da da da daaaaa, da da da da da daaaaa, da da da da da da da-da da etc IIRC.
  16. Weird and wonderful would be to buy one of these, put a proper bridge, new machine heads, Delano 5string P pickup and custom Newtone strings on it and expect it to function as a 5 string bass. It did not.
  17. That's where that went! It was certainly from the days before lightweight was a thing.
