  1. What year is your SR600? 2 or 3 position Mid Switch? Worth checking the Ibby site spares listing for part number. Some available... https://www.meinlshop.de/en/ibanez/spare-parts/e-basses/equalizer/ibanez-3-band-eq-mk-1-3-bartolini-for-sr-series-3eq1cmk1 Mines July 2010, 2 position...
  2. Mr. Men - Theme Tune... (who's now humming it?..)
  3. @neilmurraybass ' assume, perhaps wrongly, that the bassists who are interested in my playing are more likely to look at the tab, with help from the notation, particularly for the rhythms' Bassists who are interested in your playing 'prolly come in various guise and at various levels... The majority i expect are fans of your work, and someone like me, starting out and familiar with the songs after listening to em all these years are simply thankful for you 'time and tab' so we can look to enjoy the songs by starting to get a bit of it right then participating at a greater level... Thanks for the caterpillars!
  4. Take up Drums? 😉
  5. I've eyed the Ibanez Talman control plate, would look great on a rear route P... bit 'Strat Jack'... bit Tele 51 P... Single hole for concentric Vol and Tone... Plain 'n Simples...
  6. Idealy you'd pick a Lefty-South-Paw... Macca?... bit of a 'Goal Hanger' and always on about how good Liverpool was! Lemmy could help out with any half time refreshments needs to pep up the team for the second half...
  7. Can i through the Cort / Ibanez medium of Luthite in to the conversation... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luthite https://ibanez.fandom.com/wiki/Luthite along with the thinking behind its use as a wood replacement.
  8. Don't wind the strings round the peg by hand... That induces a twist along the length.
  9. Motorcycles - Harley Davidson?
  10. Custom Shop Kerching... https://www.guitarworld.com/amp/news/fender-unveils-stunning-2021-custom-shop-prestige-collection-featuring-guitars-with-no-boundaries Couple of Ps in their, but generaly what were they thinking, why would you? and people with a lot of time on their hands....
  11. Under my wheels - Alice Cooper
  12. @RussFM might be able to answer ya Q's... and help ya out with a B3...
  13. Is the MM pickup smaller in hight than a J pickup? Can't a J pickup hole be open up? 293906211413 'Bay...
  14. Check of you have both Moving Magnet (MM) and Moving Coil (MC) settings... MC is usually a Higher Quality, but a lot less output. If you have MM plugged in but set to MC (A Slide or In/Out switch)...may explain the low vol output.. Phono is gonna be a a fair bit lower than CD, or Tape for that matter. line is uaualy for something like Video or Radio IN in old money...
  15. Turn to stone - Budgie
  16. Sure some one with a P can do some ruler layup pics from the 12th... to give you a better idea. Couple of pics of my Ibby GSR200 with BBOT style bridge... may help Nut to 12th... 12th to Bridge...
  17. ? Closest adjustment position? Maybe 1/4 v 3/4 or 1/3 v 2/3... Cosmetic apperance may come in to it a little. Fore and Aft. between pickup and end of body, aligning with a control knob etc. Earth wire hole may help in comparing pics n plans of the web with bodys with bridge pilot holes
  18. Perhaps a threaded insert kinda thing needed?
  19. Take some pics and contact the seller (or manufacturer web site) just in case they are not as should be... Sounds strange they are not uniform the whole length? although some stings only have the core going over the bridge, with the main wind starting after - forget the technical name for it... If Duff... maybe a return and swap for the Rotosound? Bass strings aint cheap....
  20. Possible the first switch is in a bushed hole, that the top dress washer just covers? Nice 'shape' type markings to the neck, a change from the usuall CF weave.
  21. Pics? Does the pickguard help reduce the appearance and cover some of the gap? Edit: Looking back... It's Rear Routed.... 'Thin Strip of Vaneer' or 'Smear of Silicon Sealant' size gap?
  22. Some time back @Old Man Riva was kind enough to send me some Rotosound Pressurewounds that were surplus to his requirement... https://www.rotosound.com/product/rs55ld/ Lighter tension than the Standard Rotobass 45... https://www.rotosound.com/product/rb45/ If ya a Rotosound guy... maybe the strings you are looking for?
  23. Normal ala Ibanez etc. is 45-105 Roundwounds... If ya an Earnie Ball guy and Extra Slinky (8-38)... you may wish to stay Extra Slinky (40-95) or A Rotosound Guy?... check their sites Nickel or Stainless - and what and why may be the place to start... I was 9-42 mainly due to a locking trem, but with a wound 16 3rd for more substance and feel, i felt 16 was too thick for a plain bit if wire... 14 maybe. Whatever ya get will prolly be strung with 45-105 so try them first... Mark 'Slap' King style lighter 30-90... 40-100 std 45-105 or Steve 'Gallop' Harris Heavier 50-110 (and flats)... What ya gonna do with it? slap n snap n tap, or finger and pluck 😉 Bend or Bimble along? Then later on ask about flats... which are often 45-100... and tension...
  24. Was at the first ECT thing, Rock version of the Tube / TOTP but at least it was Live Music... Motorhead, in the small crowd and appear briefly... blink and you miss it
  25. ...that worn pebble body shape and super skinny neck of the SR... 😉 The cheaper 'Gio' GSR series is different...
