    Like it 😉 and BONUS, far fewer moths and flying things attracted to my monitor 😆

    Great job again guys, thanks for the upgrade and keep up the good work 👍
  3. KiOgon
    True - we can all say that about any bass 😊
  4. KiOgon
    That tone comes through really sweet, (my PC with Creative monitors), sounds superb 😎 GLWTS

    https://www.fender.com/en-GB/squier-electric-basses/precision-bass/mini-precision-bass/0370127554.html Not a bad price either IMO.

    Tried to sign up, got the email but no link to activate membership and no answer from Mark 🙄

    The white from your pick up is the same as the blue show in the diagram

    Ah! didn't see that blue wire 🙄 I stand corrected, go with chiliwailer's suggestion

    Centre tag of the volume pot almost certainly. EDIT Note to self; open picture up and have a closer look before typing next time.

    Hello Nige, I don't offer a relicing service on my kits, I believe it's quite a time consuming thing to do - but not as long as doing it *the real way* 😎

    The side on pic of the neck makes it appear to have quite a dip around the 5th fret, maybe just my old eyes or the way the photo's taken, but it struck me when I first saw it, then I put a straight edge up to it 🙄

    What have I always said about preamps? Stay at least a field away from them! Good luck Jack and well done Gary!

    I have used Fast Fret a few times on used strings over the years, (not always on the same strings 🙄), that does clean them off, apparently KFC fingers is good too!

    I only use flats, but have done this on rounds also - before fitting new strings soak a cotton wool pad in IPA or Surgical Spirit or Methylated spirit and scrub the new strings down until clean. It's amazing how much black shyte comes off them - machining oil mostly. I would never use steel wool of any grade, especially not while on a bass, imagine bits of steel wool all over your pick-up magnets 😃

    You must be joking!

    Yep, I'd be fostered off alright and demanding my money back straight away from the retailer - their responsibility to deliver safe - they have failed.

    Here's one I made earlier, after thinking it couln't work! This works, but the housing won't fit on in one piece, (it could be butchered!) As said already, remembering to switch it off is the thing 😊
  18. KiOgon
    How?
  19. KiOgon
    No it's not possible as far as I can see because the switching is done on the socket inside the guitar, if there's a plug in - it's on!
  20. KiOgon
    All the best Blue, take it easy and come back strong 👍

    Many many moons ago, my dear old Gran re-married a geyzer from Norfolk, he had one of them too! Always knew him as Lord Bacon-Phillips, but no idea if that was anywhere near right 🤣 but can remember travelling in style in it some times. Also - later in my younger days, we rented our garage to a lovely old chap around the corner, he also had a Armstrong Sidley, which he kept in the garage, occasionaly taking me for a ride, remember washing it with him.I must have been about 10 or 11, he taught me to play Chess 'properly' too!

    There's only one for my 1951 P-bass, (even if it's a Jap RI) 😎 1951 Chevy pick up truck, yellow of course 👍
  24. KiOgon
    Yes it is, another tool in the box and very useful.
  25. KiOgon
    Switching both pick-ups into series gives a boost in mids and output, the actual sound change depends on what pick-ups are used. Parllel is of course normal Jazz bass mode. Cheerz, John
