  1. There was always plenty of footage of close-ups on Pete's guitar while John's playing his solo on My Generation!
  2. You could likely clean the bridge with a wet and dry sanding block without removing it. Just protect the paintwork (!) with a few layers of gaffer tape. I'd be very wary of shearing the screws; they'd be a bugger to extract if they lost their heads
  3. Looks good...usual questions, what nut width, how deep is the neck behind 1st fret, weight? cheers
  4. I need to try that. Turning up the bridge pup seems to fight the (juicy) neck pup when wired 'normal'
  5. So they did, hadn't noticed that! I guess the badge rotates 🙂
  6. Definitely paint it black. Or vinyl wrap it.
  7. You could paint it black 😀
  8. That bright box was clearly designed not to offer any brightness to anyone not standing directly in front of it
  9. If the store has a reasonable returns policy, I'm fine with buying blind.
  10. I think Tokai made my Fender badged precision neck. It's a corker.
  11. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/b00776mx "Paul Gambaccini recalls The Stax Volt Tour of 1967 which brought to Europe soul greats Otis Redding, Sam and Dave, and Booker T and the MGs"
  12. I'm on a Micky Xenon bilge rat!
  13. That's interesting...any idea how they came to that conclusion? Is this behind the Music Man 3+1? I'd always thought it partly a novelty, partly a neck-dive cure.
  14. "I'll have what they're taking!"
  15. I had one. Sounded superb.
  16. Ftfy 😉 The answers to OPs original question are 100% good points well made.
  17. You can use the front panel tape in, but you'll need to bypass the input selector switch, as it will apply tape eq when tape input is selected. It's easy though,just wire it to the junction of C3 and R7 on the schematic I posted (I assume your mono version has the same numbering)
  18. Did you manage to get a response from Sonic Fart, E Sharp? I repeat, I'm wiling to give it a go. If the problem has been identified as fried opamps it should be possible to infer what they are, and to work out what fried them.

    Pre Amp?

    One benefit of a pedal is for recording- the engineer can fiddle and faff while you're busy with both hands. Or you can use it after tracking, now you have both hands free.
  20. Is that a normal feature then? I havent noticed it anywhere else. Why not a wire to the control cavity? I don't doubt that it works. Just curious.
  21. I'm curious; why is the bridge grounded via the pickup rout and not the control cavity as is usual? And, sorry to ask the boring question that everyone does, what does it weigh? I have a Japanese P of that era, lovely. Maybe it deserves a brother :-)
