    The Ambassador I'll be using just arrived today. It was half the price of a ported head, so not much to lose. Didn't want experiment with the nice new Gretsch logo head!

    I've just bought a new resonant head for my new kit's bass drum with the intention of cutting a hole for the mic and inserting damping. The standard size appears to be 5 inches, but as it's an 18 inch head, should I go smaller, or is it not that important? I'm just concerned it might ruin any remaining resonance if the hole is too large in proportion to the overall head size. Any thoughts?

    Although it's not the same, there are some carbon fibre wrap/laminates that look pretty good and would be a lot less trouble for a scratchplate

    Phones take pretty good pictures these days

    Is that a sort of double relief on the back? What's the thought behind that?

    That's a belter! Love it!

    Didn't Warwick's tag line used to be "the sound of wood " ?

    Nobody has mentioned Lightwave yet?

    That does look rather nice. How does it balance, with the short upper bout?

    Nice job. These are very usable basses, back in the 70s they used to turn up in junk shops for peanuts. The prices being asked these days are quite eye watering!

    @dangerboy had some aluminium bass thing going on. Haven't seen him in a while. He bought my Kramer 450b ages ago and had an Electrical Guitar Company one iirc

    The body shape is very Travis Bean

    Just the pickups actually. It's the usual poor quality Fender switch, I'd heard of a lot of quality issues with these and thought, well, I'm fine, they must be talking rubbish, then it cut out the other day in the bridge position. I always prefer blend on basses so that might give me the impetus to get on and do it

    They were listed separately and sold the day I put them up. Sorry!

    Bump

    BTW, I have the original black Fender bridge from this in the for sale section if anyone feels like getting their stealth on

    Oh dear, I just posted this on the short scale thread. The ebony board on the fsr was the clincher for me

    FSR Mustang P-J. Shiny stealth.

    Apart from the white bits I love that! Is it a wrap?
  22. MoonBassAlpha
    I feel your pain, but compact can be efficient too!

    How about replacing the zero fret with an adjustable (Warwick style) nut?

    Still showing a strong Bowie influence back then. Not that far removed from the current offering, just a bit more immediate hook.

    Looks like there's something missing
