Gosh, last week Sounds Live were selling em for £320

I have just placed an enquiry with hot covers so another potential sale lost

Or perhaps there is a moulding tolerance. I expect there is more than one cavity in the mould

IIRC everytime I changed a PG I have had to ease them, particulalrly the ali anodised jobbies

[quote name='Bassman' post='1098104' date='Jan 21 2011, 09:04 PM']it's just : if you are a vintage lover you DON'T do this on a real Fender P-bass 1977.[/quote]

The problem is that if you go back in time a tatty original bass was not valued. My 64 was refinished in 68, before I got it, and it improved it [using the attitude at the time, ]its since been refinished a couple of times.

Knowing what I know now, or even what I knew 20 years ago I wouldnt have done it. I expect the bloke who had this bass didnt appreciate at the time its effect on its re sale.

I would buy it without a propblem and either strip it back to natural, of have a decent refinish done.

I am very tempted to build a Bill Fitmaurice jack 12 or Jack 2x12.

I have had the plans for a while but its cold in my garage

I tried to put all gold hardware on my Tokai, but TBH I think it looked tacky, I ended up restoring all the chrome parts.

Some gold looks good, some looks cheap and brassy.

I have a number of different p bass pickups, all with slight variation, measured across they are

Wizard Thumper 28.15
Mexico 50s reissue 27.86
Lollar 27.87
Lindy Fralin 28.19

so it does look as if the thumper is a bit bigger

Dave Gilmour or Steve Lukather

if you look at the headstock, one side is paralell to the neck and the others angled so it looks as if someone has taken a 4 in line head stock and converted it.

The body is a bit thin for a production guitar.

Pray its not really a burns its awfull

If Nevada have one I might just go and have a look tomorrow

looking forward to hearing the current rig in a few weeks

[quote name='walbassist' post='1096648' date='Jan 20 2011, 06:41 PM']Gilles, when this arrives you can buy my M-300 (if you still want it)[/quote]

Is this the same man as was selling his PJB a week ago?

I have a conventional US Jo and the quality is superb.

I have not seen a custom like this before but it looks a stunner.

Good luck with the sale.

Yes Gas for me I want some of his

[quote name='ben604' post='1096489' date='Jan 20 2011, 03:51 PM']That's the only thing it's missing, wheels. But to be honest, if there's two of you, it's very easy to move about.[/quote]

Thats a shame
The cabs with back wheels are so easy to move oh well

I have man boobs

Does it have tilt back wheels at the back?

Thats not too bad a weight for a big cab, Im trying to go down in size but I do like the 6x10s

I love the stripped natural look, that will probable be my next aquisition

[quote name='stevie' post='1096300' date='Jan 20 2011, 01:32 PM']That's 368 millimetres - nearly an inch more what Pete measures.[/quote]

on my ray its about 345 from the 12 fret centre to the middle or 320 to the front of the housingi

[quote name='algmusic' post='1096164' date='Jan 20 2011, 11:07 AM']Just practice exercises and using one, then two, then three fingers at different speeds and timing

etc[/quote]

Thanks for that I will give it a go

[quote name='sk8' post='1092638' date='Jan 17 2011, 03:46 PM']Being Left handed and playing right handed i don't have a huge amount of speed in my right hand, so if its fast i use a pick [/quote]

Im the same, my right hand is very weak, mate of mine can play faster with 1 finger than I can with three,

That looks absolutly stunning
What a great job.
