  1. [quote name='Bigwan' timestamp='1467740010' post='3085816'] They build to spec... If what you want matches the specs of the J and P neck they use! I asked about a 50s/60s P neck and they couldn't do it. Things may have changed... [/quote] Nah i'm pretty sure it's still the same. [quote name='Clarky72' timestamp='1467743582' post='3085854'] They do build to spec per se, but they use necks made by their supplier, they don't make them themselves. [/quote] I thought that might be the case. My Precision was specc'd to have a J neck. It feels bigger than i expected, so i wanted to see how other J necks measured.
  2. [quote name='Christian Houmann' timestamp='1467738560' post='3085800'] First is my maple P [url="http://s113.photobucket.com/user/Houmann/media/B5B7881E-C461-40B2-8CEB-45D5804AF661_zpsmem8rmid.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s113.photobucket.com/user/Houmann/media/112A2740-3226-4795-8E7C-9858B4213B2D_zps5lhwbrz6.jpg.html"][/url] And here is rosewood P with J neck I believe [url="http://s113.photobucket.com/user/Houmann/media/01A2A346-394D-4736-9663-5985F7498871_zpsnjffazju.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s113.photobucket.com/user/Houmann/media/01A5B525-9778-4E28-A991-D058D215B216_zpsvrl6rgct.jpg.html"][/url] [/quote] Thanks, that's really helpful.
  3. They do build to spec yes. I asked for a J neck on my Precision. Just wanted to see what other peoples measured in at
  4. bloody hell Joe, you're almost giving it away!
  5. I was just wondering the neck measurements on your basses. At the nut and at 12th fret, and i would like to get some measurements for both Jazz and Precisions is possible?? I know, so needy
  6. I play guitar in two bands and bass in one. But I'd consider myself a bass player. I had lessons on the bass, so I'm "further along" compared to guitar playing. Probably go that reason I feel much more at home on bass too
  7. Loved it. I haven't seen any of Scott's videos I've disliked though. All his playing is super tasteful.
  8. Well played. Although I'm more than happy for this to turn into a walking dead thread as its one of the only shows I do watch
  9. [quote name='Hobbayne' timestamp='1466027786' post='3072964'] Me too! - Thats when the next series of The Walking Dead is back! [/quote] October is gunna be a good month!
  10. [quote name='Musicman20' timestamp='1466065821' post='3073080'] Looks ace. Prince tribute? [/quote] Ha! Didn't think of it like that, but Yeh, why not?! Haha
  11. [quote name='mrtcat' timestamp='1466001123' post='3072741'] That's exactly what I've ordered. I'll be 40 in October and Mark is currently making me a 1976 precision. I'm going to pick it up from him in October though as it's a gift from all my family so I agreed not to have it sooner. It's all paid for and the wait til October is killing me. Lovely bass FuNkShUi looks brilliant. [/quote] Thanks! Yeh that wait would be tough. I had a 9 week wait and that was bad enough
  12. [quote name='LewisK1975' timestamp='1465997271' post='3072696'] Lovely work Kert, living about 5 mins from you I'm gonna have to pay you a visit one of these days! [/quote] Cheers Lew. Our gigs quieten down in july because our drummer is away for a month so we will sort something out!
  13. [quote name='miles'tone' timestamp='1465925847' post='3072197'] Congratulations, it looks fantastic! [/quote][quote name='paul h' timestamp='1465926030' post='3072200'] I would never have gone for that colour scheme...but that looks lovely! Congratulations [/quote][quote name='EssentialTension' timestamp='1465926124' post='3072201'] Very nice. I like the colour. [/quote][quote name='naxos10' timestamp='1465930585' post='3072252'] Cracking bass, and I don' like P basses. [/quote] Thanks. I must admit i thought the colour combo would be a bit more "marmite". Seem to have been received quite well though, so i'm pleased Although possibly there are plenty who don't like it and have been kind enough to not comment
  14. [quote name='howdenspur' timestamp='1465919053' post='3072109'] That colour combo is great - like it a lot! Has also got me thinking about a Limelight again as an affordable YOB-alike. [/quote] It's definitely an affordable way to do that!
  15. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1465899824' post='3071910'] Well, you can, actually... buy a Limelight bass, sell it, then get massive seller's remorse. Twice. [/quote] Well that's happened to me once. It will not happen again. *repeat*
  16. [quote name='Ian Davies' timestamp='1465887467' post='3071766'] [font=Verdana][size=3] Nice bass [/size][/font][font=Verdana][size=3] I’m seriously considering getting a Limelight![/size][/font] [/quote] Go for it. Can't go wrong really!
  17. [quote name='Hobbayne' timestamp='1465858663' post='3071717'] I used the Limelight I bought from Discreet [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/275912-nbd-limelight-dakota-red-precision-bass-1963-audio"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/275912-nbd-limelight-dakota-red-precision-bass-1963-audio [/url] at a gig last Saturday night. I dont know what Mark uses for his pickups, but put through my Markbass 121 and the New York ext speaker, It sounded bloody amazing!! [/quote] Yeh I have high hopes for it. If it performs anything like my old Limelight I I'll be very happy
  18. [quote name='sblueplanet' timestamp='1465852399' post='3071650'] And to think that bass looked brand new before those dogs got hold of it. Nice! [/quote] Maybe a way to start my own relicing service haha!
  19. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1465849985' post='3071624'] That is one huge sofa, too. [/quote] It's our dogs' sofa. We have 3 dogs so they need a big sofa [quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1465850183' post='3071626'] That looks lush. Nice one. [/quote] Thanks WoT
  20. [quote name='CamdenRob' timestamp='1465848225' post='3071601'] wow looks great gotta love a good P bass [/quote] Thanks Rob. Might re-record this months noodle on it
  21. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1465847352' post='3071590'] Wouldn't have thought purple/gold/maple would work but it does, brilliantly. LIKE! [/quote] Mark wasn't too sure about it when i first asked! But I could picture it in my head and it looked good there so.... i went with it. Really pleased it's transferred into reality well
  22. [quote name='Highfox' timestamp='1465845834' post='3071571'] Comes back as a 1970 neck plate [/quote] Nice touch! [quote name='Dazed' timestamp='1465846729' post='3071582'] Yeah nice. Like the colour choice too. Hope you enjoy it. [/quote] I hope i do too
  23. [quote name='bumnote' timestamp='1465845464' post='3071564'] like it a lot [/quote] Thanks
