  2. Are Friends Electric - Gary Numan / Tubeway Army
  3. I'd have a quick look and see whats local to you on Gumtree...
  4. Yep one Bass... One for each day of the week!.. {2x Ibby GSR200, Ibby SR600, Harley Benton HBO Acoustic, Custom P Bitsa, Custom J 'PJ' Bitsa. Custom Rickenfaker}
  5. Can i join in... even with a Split P?
  6. ^ Did Michael Jackson by the rights to that one? - So he might know... Then again he 'prolly had things to hide between him and Bubbles...
  7. What Brand?.. I've only ever used Adagio and Olympia Flats, (which i think are the same) 45-100... Described as Standard Tension... maybe a little higher than a 45-105 set. Stick em on... might need to back of the truss rod a smidge. Welcome to the Smooth Side...
  8. So with a bit of a truss rod tweak a few hours after re-assembley all seems OK... Only checked it out thru a Zoom B1On in SVT Amp/Cab SIM... Sounds as warm as the weather! Maple Neck and a bit of the J added to the P makes for a bit more lively sound than the P Bitsa with a Rosewood Fretboard and a Pickup out of an SX? (thanks to @Rumple) not sure how the SX Pickup rates, or if Ceramic compare to the Alnico Magnets of the Kent Armstrongs etc... Quite unique looking, and sounding good for £200ish... although I wasted 6 Months and another £50ish on Primer, Paint 'n Sanding Paper! - Oh well Live 'n Learn... Spose if the Dip came out OK it would of been worth it!
  9. Lock in with the rhythm gtr and keep it simple 'holding notes' bigger dynamic difference
  10. So after the failed 'Dip' i've sanded back and gone for Natural in Danish oil. Unfortunatly there is still a little white primer in the grain... but had enough of sanding... As the saying goes 'Close Enough For Jazz...' Jazz body with Kent Armstrong Hot Vintage Alnico P and J Pickups wired with a @KiOgon VBT loom... wearing Adagio flats...
  11. Yep... check it, then leave it alone... keep checking it and ya likely to break it... at least that's what my mum told me...
  12. Jesus Crysler Drives a Dodge - Screaming Blue Messiahs
  13. Luverly looking bass... but can't make out a chip on either of the shoulders... 🤣
  14. Friggin' in the Riggin' - Sex Pistols...
  15. Human Nature - Gary Clail On-U Sound System
  16. Jazz Bass Knobs... never seen the classic Jazz Bass Knobs in Chrome, or do you mean Chrome Knobs for a Jazz Bass? I likes the Vanson Knobs and have the Full Dome Knobs on 3 basses. Nice weight and great finish, of the bay... but they have a selection of other styles and sizes and are helpfull in going a set of 3...
  17. Nice, But is that some sort of blemish at the first fret... 😉
  18. I'd be sending it back for a refund...
