Maybe we could throw jam instead?

I think all the acts were brilliant! 🙂

Little Simz was good. But I skip over the bits where he drags in some artiste "featuring me on the piano".

Yep - that's my mission for today!

Aha! It is the thread on the screw, not in the block. I took a closer look and noticed a hex socket in the opposite end of the thumb wheel. So I undid it. Looking inside there was a cross head screw top. So I got my screwdriver and unscrewed it TIL it came right out. The bolt part of the tuner is just a cheap bolt with a knurled knob on the end! I’ll be off to the DIY shop tomorrow to see if I can find one.

I've just picked up an aliexpress doubleneck headless and one of the tuners in the "Overlord Of Bass" branded bridge unit has stripped its thread. Any suggestions on repair, replace, or compatible parts?

I think Andertons (Guildford) do Trace Elliot, so they might be able to advise.

I'm not sure what wood it is, but there's a Peter Cook Mighty Mite bass body which keeps appearing on some selling sites. It originally had the neck too, but I guess they sold that.

Good delivery!

That's one to take away...

I use aluminium food trays - they’re easy to cut to strips and double over to get the required thickness.

There's the s/n. The upper body edge. And again... It seems to give the impression of being a bit more substantial than a 4003, partly due to the quality and smoothness of that finish. Due to the "zero-mod" holes (you can just see one above the treble pickup), I've been thinking about having it refinished; I might do something subtle, like have a two tone metallic which goes from that blue to black.

Oh - that is it! 12 51021 11/10 for spotting that!!! I bought it just over a year ago (Oct 2018).

IMHO, the snake-oil deserves calling out.

It an easy word to chuck about. Hater, fanboy, bully.

Taking the p155 out of overpriced bodged toot is not bullying.

There’s a Tech21 pedal out now.

I do too.

Nice work!

Mine's got the couple of battle scars from the (not-so-)zero-mod.

Nope, that’s not mine. The seller did have another one going not long after mine. Out Wiltshire way, I recall.

I got it on ebay. It had a zero-mod fitted, if you recall from a couple of years back.

Did I mention I've got 7 Rics? Only 1 MM, though (a SUB)...

I think it was flipperant, as opposed to actually wishing him harm!

Music Man - an ugly, big heavy awkward lump, with a neck like a tree-trunk, a gonky looking round pickguard, and one tuner on the wrong side, just to make it difficult for you - pah!
