Lyle got in touch for a Jazz wiring kit, great communication & very polite, (worthy of a mention these days!), instant payment & super feedback, highly recommended to deal with. Cheerz, John

Do do do do do you remember - do do do do do you recall - - - Err no I don't -

Years back we bought a new radio, sat around the kitchen table trying all the bits & ended up listening to our next door neighbour having a slanging match with her mother in law - on the 'phone we presumed - best entertainment ever Yes we used to get the police radio often too - but only one side of the conversation - annoying

Yes & Yes & Yes - whichever end the adjuster is - the same applies.

[quote name='Annoying Twit' timestamp='1441301013' post='2857773'] You still have a Gherson Jazz Bass. Same one? [/quote]Well it could be - but most likely not, regretably I can't remember what happened to mine - blame it on the sex drugs booze & rock & roll if you like I found one identical to my old one on ebay a long time ago & snapped it up. Still a very nice bass, quality parts & lovely slim neck I've been told they were only made in 73, that's when I bought my original, but not sure if that's true. Here you go; http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v48/kjon51/Gherson%20Jazz%20Bass/bf973926-a32d-4f6d-b375-3ee5e88ac609_zps78938b51.jpg

When I was gigging back in the late 60s - 70s I made the most of what I had, saved up my pay from weekday paper round, Sat. butchers round & Sun. papers until I had enough for my dream of a Ricky! It turned out my illusions were shattered when I tried playing one & then a lot more but I ended up spending my hard earned on a brand new Gherson Jazz bass - because it played better & sounded better than anything else on sale in the whole of THAT LONDON at the time + I got my dream amp, Hiwatt 100 & a fantastic Orange 2x18 cab. We were playing pubs, clubs & youth centres, but I felt great, it fitted in with the rest of the band, we were loud & heavy & I knew many other bass players who were green with envy. That was a very long time ago Now I play for fun, never dreamed of owning a Fender back then, now I have too many! No excuse required, I like them

Is it a barrel type like this? https://www.dropbox.com/s/n2gwl64uztp48vf/2015-09-02%2015.00.19.jpg?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/7b0oe1qkqv0zbic/2015-09-02%2015.00.53.jpg?dl=0 They are not known for long life, but if you haven't used it much - check the soldering. BTW Switchcraft ones are best, you can check if it has the writing as in the photo'.

Thank you Sylvia !

If string noise bothers you & you're using roundwounds - try some flatwounds, a huge reduction in one area of your problems. That shouldn't prevent you from improving your technique though

'6' has been around a while but never bothered with a feedback thread - delighted to get the ball rolling for him Paul got in touch for a upgrade mod. to his P/J & figured a series/parallel push pull switch on a volume pot would be just the job. Perfect communications & instant payment, a real pleasure to deal with all the way, he's a happy chappy now. Cheerz, John

[quote name='tauzero' timestamp='1440429476' post='2850640'] Just a minor inaccuracy - Electric Landlady was Kirsty McColl, Electric Ladyland was Hendrix. But definitely a top article. [/quote]maybe that's karma for spelling his name wrong on the Electric Ladyland cover

In spite of all the technobull you are the one playing it - can you hear hear any difference? Or you could 'phone a friend - even ask the audience

Matt got in touch for an upgrade wiring kit & pick up for his Ray, great communications & instant payment, a real pleasure to deal with. Cheerz, John

Did-did-did-did-you see the frightened ones? Did-did-did-did-you hear the falling bombs? Did-did-did-did-you ever wonder why we had to run for shelter When the promise of a brave new world Unfurled beneath a clear blue sky?

Where's that confounded bridge?
