  1. Hoi! No knobs Good innit Lovely puss cat
  2. [quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1321287192' post='1437332'] I wouldn't be surprised if it was a 7.5". [/quote] Wouldn't that be 7.25"? 7&1/4" in old money Here's one I made earlier , an old bank card makes a nice workable gauge.

  3. I'd go for 10 - 20, 20 is 'standard' room temp whereas 5 is f'in cold
  4. [quote name='Linus27' timestamp='1321198166' post='1436309'] Blimey, how did they ever cope back in the 50's, 60's and 70's before this was invented [/quote] Yeah & the 80's, 90's, even 00's. 60 years without it
  5. [quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1321183878' post='1436113'] I get that.. but what problem does it fix? [/quote] Exactly! I've never had a problem - with the A string - that is
  6. [quote name='BigAlonBass' timestamp='1321180697' post='1436060'] What-an invisibility gizmo? [/quote] Patience is a virtue
  7. Never seen this before - all those years (60) of development, cutting edge technology, the best brains in the world have come up with this: [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v48/kjon51/Fenders/FenderPrecisionDeluxehead.jpg[/IMG] Can you tell what it is yet? [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v48/kjon51/Fenders/FenderPrecisionDeluxeheadrear.jpg[/IMG] Is it only available on 'top of the range' 2011 models?
  8. [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/POWER-BASS-STRINGS-LONG-SCALE-COMPATABLE-PRECISION-JAZZ-/390362457058?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item5ae36a63e2#ht_1287wt_934"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/POWER-BASS-STRINGS-LONG-SCALE-COMPATABLE-PRECISION-JAZZ-/390362457058?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item5ae36a63e2#ht_1287wt_934[/url] I don't use rounds but maybe some will try these cheapo's?
  9. Good to hear the track cheers WOT, lovely recording, clear bass excellent warm tone & well played
  10. Great to hear the LB can push enough out via good speakers - with a 12 piece band Lovely little amps Best wishes for the shows, have fun. Cheerz, John
  11. [quote name='bigthumb' timestamp='1320961183' post='1433900'] Drilling is not the problem, I think the positioning could be. I Agree with the potential risk of the paint flaking but what if the holes were drilled before painting? [/quote] Drilling is not the problem - Positioning is not the problem - Paint flaking is not the problem - The problem is playing the damn thing once they're on there Unless you're young enough to learn to play different style or just want to hang it on a wall to look at
  12. I love the look with ashtrays on, but decided to experiment with covers on a cheapo P-bass before drilling. I'm glad I did because I can't play anything like 'normal' with them on so I won't be drilling either my '57 or '62, not for the foreseeable anyhow
  13. I almost bought a '62 AV from him & had good communications with, seems a genuine guy to me, I only didn't, 'cos I got a better deal straight from the states. I would buy with confidence from him on that basis alone. HTH, John Edit: Yes that is a seriously good price & yes they are a seriously good P-bass mine '57 is my go to
  14. This came through from Stewart MacDonald in their newsletter & I thought it might be worth sharing ;-) [url="http://www.stewmac.com/tradesecrets/ts0151_polystripping.hzml?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=ts0151"]http://www.stewmac.com/tradesecrets/ts0151_polystripping.hzml?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=ts0151[/url]
  15. [i]Solder it to ground on the pot body or jack socket outer sleeve, wherever's easy [/i]
  16. It would have to be the Fiesta Red P for me but then I don't do J necks for very long. They've both got the same 'vintage frets' which make the necks really playable (for me anyway). I think you've got a better chance of decent output with the P pick ups, the J pickups IMO are often very 'weak'. worth trying A/B in the shop if possible without changing amp settings & see/hear before you buy. I know neither have the highest quality pickups but the P's generally give a bit more output I reckon.
  17. It's a dirty job but someone's got to do it Go Doddy!
  18. Here's my other miniature P
  19. Brilliant vid ^^^^^^^ Cheerz BTW - [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/159148-62-or-64-gold-jazz-bass-your-choice/page__fromsearch__1"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/159148-62-or-64-gold-jazz-bass-your-choice/page__fromsearch__1[/url]
  20. Best wishes to Chuck & family, tough times, hope he comes back OK.
  21. [quote name='Musky' timestamp='1320602670' post='1428865'] I think the seller means Cornell only made one bass amp [i]model[/i]. I was sure I'd seen another for sale and found this - [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/7807-denis-cornell-explorer-bass-amp-plus-two-cabs/"]http://basschat.co.u...-plus-two-cabs/[/url] [/quote] I think that's the same setup
  22. [quote name='Highfox' timestamp='1320579571' post='1428446'] This forum is terrible for GAS. I had to order one lol [/quote] Don't forget - pic's or it didn't happen
  23. I got the '51 a while ago, then this showed up [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FENDER-F-toys-57-PRECISION-BASS-1-8-MINIATURE-GUITAR-JAPAN-9-/190592708464?pt=Guitar_Accessories&hash=item2c6035ef70"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FENDER-F-toys-57-PRECISION-BASS-1-8-MINIATURE-GUITAR-JAPAN-9-/190592708464?pt=Guitar_Accessories&hash=item2c6035ef70[/url] don't think they come up often.
  24. [quote name='Marvin' timestamp='1320515714' post='1427882'] How 'little' is it? [/quote] I think you sir - have sussed it & thanks Skank
