[quote name='Osiris' timestamp='1496414052' post='3311269'] The glue holding on the covers looks just like [url="https://www.talkbass.com/threads/vinatge-dimarzio-model-p-creme.437417/"]these [/url](second picture down). It seems to be a sealed unit to me. Aesthetics are down to personal taste, I really like the mismatched look [/quote] Yeah those pickup covers come off. A bit of patience and care is all that is needed.

Playing music has always involved a bunch of knobs
dyerseve replied to Happy Jack's topic in eBay - Weird and Wonderful
I think it would be a great looking bass if it didn't have so many knobs. Alembic not aware of stacked pots??? -
**Now sold mods please close this thread** Status Series 1 5 String (modded with Aguilar OBP-3) Im really not sure I want to do this as this has been my "go-to" bass for 10 years now but I have several 5 string basses and now my Streamer 5 string is fully operational again, I cant justify having so many. A truly wonderful instrument that is a joy to play and incredibly versatile, especially now it has an Aguilar OBP3 3 band EQ fitted, which has a switchable mid boost and an active passive switch as well. The balance is perfect, the neck is very thin and fast thanks to the carbon reinforcing and the bass is lightweight at just under 4kg. String spacing 17.5mm The bass has been used and shows general signs of wear that you would expect with a bass that is 20+ years old but it is in generally good condition. I might have gone overboard with the photos but I always try and show as much detail as possible so people know exactly what they are getting. Also, in some light and at some angles you cant see the marks so I have tried to show them so they dont come as a surprise. Generally they are just superficial and with a good rub down and arefinish this bass would look a million $.

Hmm that did nothing for me. He clearly has chops but what he was playing seemed totally at odds with the music he was playing over.

Thumb NT Going...er.....Uncheap
dyerseve replied to Acebassmusic's topic in eBay - Weird and Wonderful
Haha haha 8s this the same guy that was accusing us of trolling when we were telling him he was dreaming at £10K? If so touche! Though I think we could have the last laugh by someone buying it anonymously and then not paying. I would hate to see the seller fees!!!! 😂 -
DiMarzio DP123 Model J Bass Pickup Set Black, used but in full working order and generally good cosmetic condition. some marks(one significant) to the plastic covers(on the side so not visible once installed) and the wires have been extended.

Sandberg 5 String California on Gumtree
dyerseve replied to Jabba_the_gut's topic in eBay - Weird and Wonderful
Some additional research shows that the scratchplate is correct for Sandberg and that the logo is only a sticker so could be legitimate. The lack of serial no. On the back of the headstock worried me as well but apparently that is normal for custom shop builds. Considering Sandberg isn't that well known a brand I think it unlikely to be a fake. -
Sandberg 5 String California on Gumtree
dyerseve replied to Jabba_the_gut's topic in eBay - Weird and Wonderful
I did a Google image search and no other Sandberg California has the jack on the front. Pups, bridges, machine heads, string retainers all available as spares from Sandburg. Something about this seems very fishy so I am leaving alone. -

I was just about to purchase this but now I am unsure... -
[quote name='lownote12' timestamp='1496924704' post='3314721'] I made my own and I'm no mechanic.[list] [*]Found a bit of nice light pine wood the right thickness from an old posh wine box [*]Measured the size I needed to go on bass. [*]Sawed wood to size [*]Bought sandpaper sheet and stick it to INSIDE of a dustbin to roughly approximate the fingerboard /strings curvature [*]Rubbed block of wood against sandpaper until one surface convexly curved [*]Attacked all part of ramp with finer bits of sandpaper [*]Checked it fitted [*]Finish with paint or oil to taste [*]Attach with doublesided Sellotape [/list] Or get someone to make one, don't know who [/quote] would be much harder to work clear plastic as the OP requested. I am guessing that the OP wants a completely transparent ramp which i think would be really difficult to produce as a DIY effort without it ending up looking like a dogs dinner. Maybe check on ebay if there are people who can produce a custom mould for you as I believe to get a pro finish it would need to be injection moulded. I could be completely wrong though, it's happened before!

[quote name='NancyJohnson' timestamp='1496915523' post='3314638'] Misinterpreted...I was looking to swap the pickup around (a la the Mark Hoppus signature bass). The 'bass side' E&A stays where it is, the 'treble side' D&G goes closer the to the neck, where in theory the different position gives the strings different tonal characteristics. I had a EH Black Finger compressor; a bit Emporer's New Clothes to me. May investigate a Boss BC-1X. [/quote] If you see Grangur's post below this one I am quoting, that was the rationale I was using when I made my suggestion. I really think this is your best bet.
