I helped Greg's P bass build along the way with some knobs great guy to deal with, spot on comms & instant payment, a real pleasure. Cheerz, John

Congrats - looks superb & pretty sure it'll play as good as it looks, have a very good 40th Much like my Frank Bello, but that has a P neck [url="https://www.dropbox.com/s/3ywvazzeg71sd9m/fender-frank-bello-signature-jazz-bass-3.jpeg"]https://www.dropbox....azz-bass-3.jpeg[/url]

I made a Jazz control set with shielding kit for Robert, great guy to deal with, spot on comms. & instant payment, no problems here

Another old git here saying welcome Nige, early '51 model so just ahead of you have fun

Well done & yes I would most likely have done the same when I was but a lad

Yes it's been around before, definitely would have to see what's under that monster pick guard before buying could be OK with a double P installation, anything would be better than the overdose of tort

I got some good Fender head (stickers), from Robert, as described & posted as said, great guy to deal with - no problems - would happily deal again. Cheerz, John

Sounds like time for a new pot or a complete wiring replacement kit

Beat ya by seconds

That is all

Sounds like you need a new jack socket or perhaps a wonderful new complete wiring kit?

Thunderbird beat me to the same offer Lozz! If you wanted proper brass plates to fit in the cavities I can do them for you, PM me. Cheerz, John

The problem remains the same - the amount of aggravation regardless of whether or no it's an original - is not worth it to 'us the forum', it's owners, those who are liable/likely to get screwed by JH & his mega buck solicitors.

I use GHS Precision Flats 50 - 105 on 3 P basses at the moment & they're all fine. You should certainly not have a problem. Cheerz, John

[quote name='skej21' timestamp='1397065595' post='2420342'] What do you use for the .045 string? I noticed there isn't a file for it in the bass section or guitar section. I know the Hosco are double sided. Are the Stew mac ones double sided too? [/quote] Yes I noticed there were only 3 sizes listed on that page, but they do or did do .045 + many smaller, must be another list somewhere. Not double like the Hosco, the ones I have are single size.

I use these Stewmac ones [url="http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Tools/Files/Gauged_Nut_Slotting_Files_for_Bass.html?actn=100101&xst=3&xsr=7332"]http://www.stewmac.c...&xst=3&xsr=7332[/url] which are perfect for the job. The Hosco ones are also excellent, the bow saw type [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AxeMasters-Guitar-NUT-SLOT-FILE-SET-KIT-for-BASS-Saw-Rods-Luthier-Tool-/350585724150?pt=Guitar_Accessories&hash=item51a0899cf6"]http://www.ebay.co.u...=item51a0899cf6[/url] is not good for doing nuts in situ due to the extra bits that hold the blade in, they get in the way. If you have your nut blank in a vice they're fine. The welding tip cleaners are OK for the smaller gauge strings but they don't go big enough.

Yeah it came in on 27th March & now they've finished playing football in the yard with, so they've booked it out, or binned it, or decided it's too broken to send on Nothing unusual for USPS
