  1. @bigmuff69... I likes a thumb rest... What are the other dimension? F3nd3r types look to be about 13mm wide and 13mm high <sticky out...> Got an SR600 in plain natural ash, be nice to pick up on the jatoba / bubinga type colurs on the extended neck heal... If the standard ones are 100mm would it be poss to have it 2-Part? 45mm slight shaped ends to fit between the pickups, and the 55mm slight shaped one end to go from the neck pickup with a chamfer on the other end by the fretboard?
  2. @glassmoon... your opening post gave me the idea!
  3. @KiOgon sorted me some of the above Ibanez Premier / Premium a like knobs to pimp my SR600... A bit more modern looking... and Cheap!
  4. No worries @KiOgon has 'sorted me right out matey' with a set of the Ibanez Prestige/Premium-a-likes... So the SR600 can have a cheapy make-over... set of knobs is more my price range than pickups!
  5. LMP Silver Solder from my Audio Interconect and Speaker Cable Building Days... Was an Electronics Eng in a previous Life... 30 years ago
  6. try warming with a hair dryer... glue sometimes 'balls-up' when rubbed or pushed with a thumb or finger... try lemon oil if you have some to hand fo the board... the citrus oil helps, often cleaners use orange oil. Sticky Stuff Remover?
  7. @krispn Following the Dood thread yesterday... yours, another fine Natural with black plate... nice
  8. Measure Nut to 12th fret... then double it for scale length. Can't see the pics, is the extra fret on a body overhang?
  9. Real Nice... Simply P... Natural, Single P, Black Plate and a Thumb Rest...
  10. Yep, that... nice. looking at the pickup and control route, as it the body is 'all yours' how about a smaller more minimal scratch plate? like a nike swoosh, or 'comma' rounded to take in the pup, curved and tapering down for the control and jack...
  11. I think the Jag and other 'odd bodies' offer a psych vibe and deserve something a little stricking, but i like subtle... How about a purpley Aubergine with black guard? If not a gun metal would be nice as long as its darkish and not looking like car primer... again black plate picking up the black blocks...
  12. Tortoise?... C'mon... Black on that, surely.... Not Olly White or some sort of Jazz... Oh well... cultural differences!
  13. @horrorshowbass Interesting... when you say the new big singles run passive are not a lot different sounding to the reverse split coil Mk1 Barts, Is that with Barts also run passive (after the pre failed) or as you remember em when the pre was working? If you tried the Mk1 Barts passive - did they sound the same as with the preamp but with the BMT set centered? And the Blend may effect the pickups different when passive. OE is a AC taper, so half and half when centered... I have swapped mine for a MN taper so both full when centered. Don't suppose you have one of the small knobs going spare? or are you hanging on to em in case you get a replacement pre?
  14. Pic would help... Cocktail stick cut flush as packing... then use the same screw?
  15. Hi Al... Stick ya gear in the boot... That doesnt mean 'hide ya Marj in ya shoe'... It's more 'stow ya bass in the trunk'..
  16. Bloody Hell... another one! Its like WW2 all over again.. over here with ya Fancy Fenders, Gum, Hershey Bars... and i'm sure some of ya are wearing nylons!😀😀😀 Enjoy Basschat... and drive on the left! 😀

    Hello

    Hi Eko... 'All Good' here on basschat... Bad days are OK too, there are whole threads dedicated to em... Beware the DoI (Den of Iniquity)... i wandered in there a while back, strange goings ons... was lost for days... but then again, they do go on a bit!
  18. Bloke in Scotland can make em using yours as a template... not cheap... have a search on here for Harley Benton Scratchplate... few have had em made for their P a likes... also lists on eBay...
  19. After the above post on the Donnor Basement... this is now with the eldest and undergoing guitar use. I'm on the nice metal box of an EHX headphone amp... clean, simple and no gimmicks... or the Zoom B1 Four. Wireless would be great! but may end up costing more than the headphone amp or the zoom? And as you say lag may be an issue with playing versus just playback.
  20. Nice... Black 'n Mapel... Pearly Blocks 'n Pearl Guard. Those black machine heads give the mapel a bit of lift and definition. black bridge would of been tooo much, and i likes a thumb rest. You're gonna get some fans... Take a look at the 'Black Bass' thread and search 'black and mapel' to see the love.
  21. Howdy... Need Pics... dem da rules... mmm... Maybe Flats, but i get the No Tortoise...
  22. I'll see your 'ZZ Top'... and raise you a 'Motorhead'...
  23. 'Prolly just go for a Harley Benton or a Squier...
  24. £200 neck.. £100 pickup... Triggers Broom?
  25. I meant Guitar Strap not Jock Strap... 😀
