    I used to really want the gold Peerless branded one with the different headstock - Think it had 'Bassmaster' on the truss rod cover (I've only seen one in UK). I have Casady's 'Dream Factor' album stored somewhere. My first bass lessons were on one of these, so I always gravitate towards this type of instrument.... https://www.andybaxterbass.com/cdn/shop/products/IMG_4974.jpg?v=1548167506

    I wanted it when Bubinga5 had it, but it always appears at the wrong time for me. I love the top - Enjoy!
  6. Schnozzalee
    Why do you take comments about guitar timber personally?
  7. Schnozzalee
    Yamaha uses top quality rosewood for entry Pacificas, but Fender/Squier and Gibson/Epiphone are putting out some absolute turd for fingerboards now; it's going to be even more obvious on a fretless.
  8. Schnozzalee
    Laurel looks awful in person though.
  9. Schnozzalee
    Wow - I have a Peerless Smoked Bass Custom, but the finger is highlighted in Abalone, so I can't make it fretless. If it's still made by that Co. with rosewood, this will be amazing.
  10. Schnozzalee
    You can tell its quality by just looking at the board.
  11. Schnozzalee
    Wow

    I've only just gotten over the 'crocodile burp' of a 5 string B. I'd recommend the Cort A6, which can't be much more. I played one for years, just because it was great bass, but I'd rarely play chordal stuff (unless at home). There was a cracking player in Cardiff on here that used a Cort Curbow 6 in the restaurants around the bay. Can't remember his name 🤔

    Wimbish, Sklar and?

    Bought Si's Lindy Fralin P-bass pickup which arrived promptly and in better condition than expected! Great comms throughout and a very easy transaction - Much appreciated.
  15. Schnozzalee
    Could not be less impressed with the comms and loom I received from John. The only negative feedback I've ever given on Basschat since 2009.

    Seems like covers vary a lot in size, but bobbins don't, so problem solved.
  18. Schnozzalee
    The width of the covers is 26mm (25mm inside) and probably needs to be 28mm for a replacement pickup. I'll either need to find some wider pickup covers with big lugs, a Dean USA pickup, or something to fill the gap between some smaller lugs 😑
  19. Schnozzalee
    Sounds like something from Theme/Two Point Hospital. I was planning on switching out the pickup in my Dean Paramount p-bass for something more traditional, but the pickup cover dimensions are unusual and it doesn't look like I can fit the new pickup underneath. The covers are 55.5mm x 26mm x 14mm, with the centre of the outer pole pieces at 28.5mm apart; further to this, the lugs are 72mm across, with screws at 65.5mm apart. Although, the pickguard rout is almost the standard shape, apart from additional room being made for the cover's lugs. The rout is 57mm x 28.5mm x 19mm, and then 72mm for the lugs. I've contacted Dean Guitars, because I know that they were winding USA pickups for those wanting to upgrade this model on TalkBass, but what could I do to fill the gap created by the lugs? Would foam still maintain the shielding? If I can't find a solution, I'll just stick with the hot stock G&B pickup. All input appreciated.
  20. Schnozzalee
    I think it's called the Kiesel JB5 now, with 70s pickup spacing. The original Carvin was 60s pickup spacing (I believe)... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MDJfA-uSe4&t=63s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puB1ShoQd20
  21. Schnozzalee
    I actually own one now too 😝
  22. Schnozzalee
    Not willing to part with it for trades, so withdrawn for me.
  23. Schnozzalee
    Shocked and saddened to read this. One of the regulars probably since I joined in 2008 or whatever. Only communicated through PM but a gentleman every time - Will certainly be remembered alongside the core members that have passed. Thank you and RIP.
  24. Schnozzalee
    Spent the time to set this up in E Standard, with neck straight and action low, but very easy to set up in lower tunings (previously had it in Eb). Will leave it up for a couple weeks longer and then I'm going to take the cellophane off and start using it.

    My US Musicman Sterling had dead spots, so look out for those.
