Thanks @Grimalkin good to hear. I’ve reached out to La Bella and where I bought them.

Looking for a little help… I have a JMJ Mustang and bought a set of La Bella 760F-MUS Deep Talkin Bass. these seem like the correct La Bella for a through body short scale mustang… the E string is dead as dead thing. Sound like there’s a mute on the E, but not the others. Lots of reading on line and it seems either - A. That’s what they’re all like, the A, D and G string mellow and the E brightens up and after a break in period they all sort of catch up and get to a uniform sound. B. I’ve somehow twisted the E string. I’ve tried all I can to make sure the E isn’t twisted. Taken it off and re strung it. Loosened the string, popped the ball end back out of the body and then tightened the string. (I didn’t wrap the string round the post by hand, I tightened the tuning peg). the E string is pretty tight in the body/bridge. The silk wrap is partly to blame I think. anything else I can try? Lube the string at the bridge end maybe? Or is it just a dead string? audio here https://www.dropbox.com/s/qa1qeh1cua1is4s/labelladeadE.mp3?dl=0 many thanks!

Oh wow. This looks amazing. Have you shared this on Elektronauts forum?

Bought a lovely JMJ from Rich. Great to deal with. Many thanks

These are really handy too on something so little Precision Oil Lubricating Pen Needle Oiler for Clock Repair Hobby Model Lubricator Tool Pocket Watch Applicator. https://amzn.eu/d/2XIosMw

“Plusgas” is fantastic stuff (looks like Amazon have it, though I’ve never used the aerosols version personally). Propper penetrating oil - unlike wd40. Have used it for years on vintage bikes and cars and anything else. lovely bass! Looks so good in that colour. Good to hear some feedback about that trader too as he always has some lovely Jap stuff in. Prices have gone crazy though.

Great guys to deal with too. Really helpful

Are you using this for Bass? I had one a while ago but used it for Guitar. Sounded great! Great with synths too.

Can recommend https://www.elektronauts.com great community and very helpful. and the Matriarch or Grandmother are great synths worth looking into miss my matriarch but ran out of space to keep it.
