Probably late 60's now I think about it and it was Ambersil Groom - to my surprise still available! https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ambersil-7003A-500ml-Upholstery-Cleaner/dp/B0032I2SMK?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&psc=1&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE

In the 70's when I worked for VOX we had big white aerosol cans of 'Foam Cleaner', still got some somewhere 😉 right good stuff 👍

Kris bought a P-bass loom from me, great transaction, comms, instant payment and feedback after = all good. Cheerz, John

I made another P bass loom for Tim, perfect transaction, great guy to deal with every time. Cheerz, John

What fitting/size are the original knobs?

Dan bought a loom for a budget P-bass, ( a very affordable upgrade BTW 😉 ) which he is very pleased with. Excellent guy to deal with, spot on comms. instant payment and feedback, perfect transaction. Cheerz, John

Tim bought a Jazz loom from me, got it fitted and had a bit of trouble - so messaged me - and I was pleased to offer advice which soon had things sorted 👍 Great guy to deal with, great communicationand instant payment, perfect transaction, will happily deal with Tim again. Cheerz, John

Any pickups, (I expect there are exceptions), but generally - any 😉

Switchcraft - best by far. Available many places, for example; https://www.thomann.co.uk/allparts_switchcraft_ep0151_buchse.htm?gQT=1

First sight I thought the 'guy next to Ringo - with the bass' looked like Jet Harris, but I don't see any other Shadows there 😄

Amazing! 12 tears ago tomorrow, I started this feedback thread after building Dunc a P-bass loom 😃 😎 Here we are still, another P-loom, perfect transaction - great guy to deal with - will we see another 12 years? Cheerz, John

AFAIK there is no industry standard connectors for the 'music market', in industry terms it's a niche market, unworthy of a dedicated connector, it's just a question of using what's available and what will do the job. I'm sure there are speciality products in the audio signal range, but TBH the electrical range that we're using is comparatively small and insignificant that basicaly anything will do! 😒 All IMHO 😉 Edit; Yes I use connectors made for PCB soldering, with screw terminals for the pickup wires and bridge earth.

Excuse me 😄 Put you hand up if you didn't know I've been making looms *with solderless terminals* for basschat members a good few years now 🤭 Many satisfied users - please see my feedback. Custom build or standard looms - message me your needs. Cheerz, John

Thanks Woodinblack, all seems well here now, PM notification received this morning 🙌 👏

Still no notifications and sorry I didn't see your message from Tuesday - just found it now - will PM you. Cheerz, John

As above 😉

So very sad, RIP Nick and sincere condolences to family and friends. John

Another warm welcome Syd, you're doing better than me - 74 on the 31st Jan - hardly play at all these days, still got a dozen or so - all 4 string, but try to keep in touch and enjoy making the wiring looms for the BC massive 👍😅

Hey Si, whatever has happened to the loom - if you send it back to me I'll sort it no problem, no charge 👍 Cheerz, John and Happy New Year

Haha - it's been a while 🤣 🤪

Aaron ordered a P-bass loom, great comms, instant payment, a right pleasure to deal with 👍 Cheerz, John

Gone to a good home already! Cheerz, John

Anybody want this? PM me your address and I'll be happy to post it to you. Cheerz, John
