    [quote name='~tl' post='447942' date='Mar 28 2009, 10:46 AM']I think the Schaller BML series tuners fit, though they're not cheap these days – were £40 ish about a year ago and Allparts are now wanting over £80 for a set.[/quote] think i have a set of these somewhere, bought them for my VMJ but they're not long enough to fit without drilling new holes... i'll have a look and let you know ----edit---- found 'em, pictures [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=45153"]here[/url]

    yeah don't worry, it happens from time to time... are you in a band? if you're not, start one, if you are maybe start something different on the side? when the band i'd been in for years folded i pretty much didn't play for about a year and a half and i had no desire to. but now i've started a new band its got me all excited about playing again, and of course its got me gassing for (and buying!) new equipment!

    [quote name='waynepunkdude' post='389255' date='Jan 23 2009, 07:59 AM']I usually check the thing first then play the intro to Journey to the End of East Bay - Rancid, it uses all the strings with a pick (the way I play) there is a chord, pull offs, hammer ons and it goes up and down the neck. Goes like if you fancy a go, it's fun to play.[/quote] ah great memories! pretty much every young punk band i've ever been on the same bill as or seen play live, the bassist always seems to soundcheck with that one! i used to always follow it by playing the solo in maxwell murder (or something resembling it), but i've grown up (a little bit...) since then and now realise that showing off and trying to upstage 14 year old kids who are just starting out isn't cool!

    [quote name='joegarcia' post='360271' date='Dec 21 2008, 03:31 PM']Personally I'd finish it off with some Jazz knobs but thats just me.[/quote] +1 i'm gonna get some for the VMJ i bought off gafbass just to complete the look. these basses really are as good as everyone says! well impressed. trouble is its got me thinking of further mods (mine came with a badass) and i'm also looking at getting the VMP and modding that too! bank balance permitting of course be interested to hear the difference to yours with the new pups to see if its worth looking into a pup upgrade on mine, though as you said Doc B, the duncan design pups sound really good!

    cheers for all the replies, in the end i've decided to sell them (see the for sale section) and buy some that fit and have the screws in the same place... guess thats what i get for not doing my homework before i start flashing the cash!

    [u]5 schaller M4 machineheads - 3 Left 2 right[/u] - i was gonna use them for a four string bass (2 a side) but they didn't fit anyway. they're used but in good condition. one of the left sided ones had a chip taken out of the paint work, which i painted over with nail varnish (not mine, i swear!) its on the bit that goes behind the headstock so not really an issue unless you go looking for it. its also a little more scratched than the others so as its one of the 3 left sided ones i was gonna leave it out anyway. i'll take some pics and try to get any damage to show up but i'm guessing it wont, as i say its not noticeable unless you're really looking for it. close up of the one that was damaged... yeah so i suck at photography. i have no patience for it whatsoever. [b]*SOLD*[/b][u]5 string bridge - Schaller 3-D5[/u] i think... the ones with the rollers... a few scratches on the bit under the saddles but other than that pretty good condition. [b]*SOLD*[/b] i'll get pics up asap, hopefully tonight, once i've found my camera. trade wise if anyone has a 4 string set of tuners, black or chrome, of similar value that aren't schallers get in touch. and same with the bridge, a four string schaller 3-D would be cool or any other 4 string bridge you have thats of equivalent worth. or just PM with offers of the money kind, and yeah paypal's fine.

    [quote name='Dr.Dave' post='298876' date='Oct 3 2008, 06:58 PM']You're obviously not keen to do it but I had a similar problem with Schallers I fitted to a Fender. I just put 2 wraps of insulating tape round each machine for a more snug fit.Invisible. Been on 20 years and countless gigs now - no issues and never goes out of tune or anything. Just my 10 penneth.[/quote] well i wasn't keen but as you've had them on for that long with no problems i may give that a go and see what i reckon. cheers for that dr.dave!

    [quote name='neepheid' post='297208' date='Oct 2 2008, 01:17 AM']Additional - I'll take those Schallers off you if they are 1: no good and 2: chrome [/quote] nah sorry they're black, they'll be making an appearance in the for sale section soon i think
