Best of luck Sam.

I don't know why - in these ' strings for a P-bass' topics - nobody ever mentions neck size/nut width? Personally I find heavier gauge strings suit them big'ol necks and lighter on the slimmer. Does nobody agree?

As suggested above - a few quid spent on a simple plug in mains tester could save lives. If any pub or other venue has dodgy mains wiring they shouldn't be in business! Needs sorting urgently.

Yes 😎

Makes you wonder why anybody ever bought one 😎😃

Yep, when I got my LB30 with custom 112 cab, I felt there was more to give and fortunately got hold of a 48, same frontal size as the 112. Ashdown kindly provided the grill cloth badge and beading to match the new 112, the rest is history. Fab cab indeed, I believe Mark Gooday has said 'the best cab they ever made'!

I have some WD Tort on a P and it's very very good, best tort I've seen, IMO worth the extra 😎

Paul ordered a P loom, great comms and instant payment = perfect transaction, a pleasure to deal with. Cheerz, John

Well I've never seen a more stupid way of fitting a cap.! If the long leg, earth side of that cap. ain't touching the 'unused' tag on the tone pot when fiited to the scratch plate, I don't know! Should have gone to specsavers

I have always cleaned new string before fitting, a cotton pad with surgical spirits gets all the crap off and leaves you with lovely clean shiny new strings 😊

I have a Gherson Jazz bass, natural blond, I'm told they were only made in 1973. Long story short - '73 I went to that London determined to buy a Rick but every one I tried was NFG. When shown and played the Gherson I fell in love on the spot. It served me well for many gigs over many years.

Cheers @ped Maybe good for bigger items but no good for wiring kits 😒 or small parcels, bottom line is 34.99 euros, so not for 'low value' items. John

Same applies if any thing touches the shielding paint.

Any P pup will do, it's the fingers that matter 😎

A PMR acros the power swich will sort it, for example: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1x-RIFA-Kondensator-100n-100R-X2-250V-SH-PMR209-RC-UNIT-0-1-F-uF-nF-C69k/264043210759?_trkparms=aid%3D1110001%26algo%3DSPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D59623%26meid%3D275ba97cd71f4aa899873ac674304144%26pid%3D100010%26rk%3D6%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D173895418110%26itm%3D264043210759%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2047675&_trksid=p2047675.c100010.m2109

Tried to watch - but once Kaz saw Victor Meldrew singing old PSB hits we had to turn it off 😍

That's about right y'know 😃

I made a P-bass loom for Neil, great comms, instant payment, perfect transaction, highly recommended. Cheerz, John
