[b]SOLD - Lakland 'Joe Osborn' signature Flatwound strings [/b] Bought these some years ago during an experimental phase on flats, imported them from the US... Used for a few hours, then straight back in the sealed packet in my strings box ever since. As per much opinion on BC, I recall they were really nice flats, but I preferred Sadowskys. I believe Lakland no longer market these strings They've been cut for a Fender & silks are are in good condition.

[quote name='lee650' timestamp='1481759740' post='3195003'] As the name implies, are these 70's wound pickups? Much like the Nordstrand 70's wound nj4's? [/quote] Hi, they are custom wound to replicate 70's Jazz pickups, more mids, a bit more poke, fatter sounding than 60's ones. Sorry no idea if they are the same as the Nordstrands you mention, as I'm not familiar with those ones. Hope this helps.

I use a Waldorf Pulse 1, it's a rack mount synth module. Has three oscillators, great for approximating a moog-ish bass sound... However, if you want keys like other suggestions above, the Bass station II is great for the money - can save patches, good midi implementation, plenty of knobs to play with For more aggressive, brutal sounds, as the name suggests, Arturia Minibrute is fantastic too.

Have you looked at the j-fets, are they OK? I've had issues previously with crap ones.

[quote name='Manton Customs' timestamp='1452955955' post='2955048'] Ah, after googling it I now see how it should look like! That's a pretty flawed design having the grain running across such a short distance and at a curve! So its no wonder they get broken. Looks nice though . It would definitely best to take it to a luthier. First the two broken areas would need to be sawn square then planed perfectly flat (or routed). Then a matching piece of Maple would be glued in, before reshaping and then routing out that curved slot again. Obviously then the headstock face would need to be refinished. It's always going to be a weak area as it's a flawed design, but if done correctly it should be no weaker after the repair than it was when first constructed. It'd be pretty straight forward but take some balls . [/quote] Thanks for your advice, much appreciated. Going to have a think about how to go about it. Someone else has suggested moulding a section out of fibreglass in place of the missing piece of wood, another suggestion was to use headstock from a damaged donor fenderish neck & cut a piece out to fit. Once I 've done all the other bits, will start approaching some luthiers. Cheers

[quote name='Manton Customs' timestamp='1452945463' post='2954911'] Nice looking bass . What's the headstock damage like? [/quote] Thanks... Here's a photo of the damage, section has broken away, unfortunately lost by previous owner. At the moment it's more of a Black Macaw than Eagle! Would be grateful for any advice or suggestions on possible repair. [url="http://s1087.photobucket.com/user/nickonbass69/media/2016-01-16%2012.14.15_zpsilioocd0.png.html"][/url] Cheers

The Ibanez Black Eagle has been on GAS list for over a decade, so when this 1977 Antoria (made in the same factory) popped up on Ebay a few weeks ago, I had to snap it up! I didn't pay much for it, but it does need a bit of work as per the photo. [url="http://s1087.photobucket.com/user/nickonbass69/media/Basses/2016-01-15%2018.12.27_zpsaslvb0sw.png.html"][/url] The pickguard is missing, however I've found someone via the Black Eagle FB page to make a replica.The original pickups have been replaced by previous owner to Bartolinis. I 'm going to swap them out for some split coil humbuckers made by Jess Loureiro. I'm also going to rewire the bass with CTS pots, proper jazz knobs & a PIO tone cap. Replacing the old tuners for some nice new Gotohs too. The worst bit is the headstock damage, which I gather is quite common. Not sure yet how I'm going to fix it, will probably entrust a guitar repairer on this. However, the neck feels great, frets are good & it's a lovely bass to play. Contrary to all other reports I've seen on the weight of these basses, this Antoria is not heavy at all. Where the paint has been chipped in various places on the body, I can see quite light coloured wood, nothing like mahogany or a 'sandwich' block. It's a comfortable bass to use, thankfully not a backbreaker! Will post more pics, when I've finished tidying it up. Cheers
