    No worries, he did suggest I could make a long weekend of it and come out with around 500 quid, but I couldn't get it past the Mrs. I'm over 4 hours away!

    @Dom in Dorset I just put up an ad for my mates band needing an urgent dep over the jubilee, Paignton area. Std rock covers, paid, full diary. https://www.facebook.com/100000947492715/posts/7495235947184581/

    My old drummer from way back got in touch needing a bass player urgently. Busy covers band, nice chaps, too far away for me!: https://www.facebook.com/100000947492715/posts/7495235947184581/

    Gold hardware= bass vajazzle? 😀

    Your designs are always so tactile. I want to get greasy fingerprints all over them! (I'd clean em off, after, promise!) 😀

    What does it weigh, out of interest?

    I've not done any finishing, but there's loads of videos on Crimson Guitars channel, and they sell some lovely coloured stains too... I watch the videos for relaxation

    Sorry, I haven't managed to find the photos yet, may only have been on an old phone 😞

    Thanks, was hoping for shortie.

    Reminds me a bit of a Shergold Butcher block stripey guitar I saw once

    How cool is that?!!

    Long scale?

    I'll be heading to the south coast, Paignton, specifically, if that's any use dropping off, meeting up etc.! Or just pop by to the gig at the Hyde Dendy on the front 😉 Saturday April 23rd

    I did have the circuit diagram, sketched out by a local luthier. I'll try to find it later

    A double neck Wal would save you a fortune in gym membership!

    I don't know if it is just mine, but I find the sound very aggressive and bright for a shortie, even with half rounds on I usually have the tone down to about 3/10. The reason I thought it could be just mine is that it's an fsr with ebony fingerboard, and I have a guitar with ebony board and that's also very bright sounding...

    Yes, mine did dive somewhat. I changed the machines for smaller (much nicer!) Gotoh ones and the balance is now neutral. The whole thing is now bang on 8lbs.

    Nice grain

    @laurence birdhi there, I've only just seen this thread (tip, use @xxxxx next time!), but to answer, yes, the Truvox did work, with all the caveats outlined above. Acoustic instruments sound really nice, and the reverb is lush. As long as your expectations are realistic for bass use ( pretty quiet) and seal the box properly, you're good. I played around with customised settings on a tc spectracomp to help keep the cone under control which also helps get a bit more out of it too. Hope this helps! MBA

    Looking on their website, they have ready made fretless line markers too. Pretty dear, as they say the manufacturing yield is low.

    Mini bump for mini monitors

    I've got a black Fender bridge up in the market place from months ago still up for grabs...
  24. MoonBassAlpha
    The blocks really enhance the figuring on the fretboard. Great choice!

    Is there anything to stop the aluminium lines corroding? just thinking sweat might interact poorly with unfinished aluminium.
