[quote name='Rick's Fine '52' timestamp='1349018139' post='1820708'] Looks real to me, shame its a slab board, and not slab body, mind you, it would be 5x the price if it was! [/quote] Ah yes! That would explain it, there may just have been a little confusion in my poor old mind there for a minute or 12 Cheerz, John

I just spotted this on ebay real or not - I dunno [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Players-1961-Slab-board-Fender-Precision-/221118283124?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item337bad3d74&_uhb=1#ht_500wt_1201"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Players-1961-Slab-board-Fender-Precision-/221118283124?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item337bad3d74&_uhb=1#ht_500wt_1201[/url]

Bootiful Agree with Lozz about the scratch plate, I have a Fender Custom Shop Pearl that should have fitted straight on my AV '57, but not all the holes lined up perfect, it wouldn't lay flat. Uncle Horrid does make lovely plates, he's your best bet for a quality replacement. Cheerz, John

Yes they work & I've had no problem with 2 or 3 different models on different basses. Not sure which will suit the Warwick, go to Hipshot.com for the full range. I've never paid £95 for one though! Cheerz, John

Fender serial numbers what's the next 2 digits after 10? If you want a definite answer take the neck off & see what dates are on the heel &/or in the pocket. Cheerz, John PS You worry too much

Scalpel nurse! Sharp instrument to the scratch plate & mind your fingers, if you haven't got a Dremmel, got any files?

[quote name='BluRay' timestamp='1348861269' post='1819348'] What's the light thing? I want one! [/quote] With a name like your's? eBay 'blue LED strip' loads to choose from, simple 12V PSU or maybe power from a pedal board. I had to fit something to remind me the amp was still on, makes it harder to walk away without offing it Cheerz, John
-
Yes the overall shape/size/screw holes are the same, I've got both sorts of plate here. If there was a fifth hole it would be a 5 hole plate surely Cheerz, John Edit: I just read it again, you say 3or 4 knobs, I was thinking 3 or 4 holes

It sounds great! I wanted an 'electronic' option to the LB & thought the MiBass would do that job nicely - it certainly does!

I made up a wiring kit for Mark's old Jap Jazz, hope the restored beast beats again soon! A complete pleasure dealing with him, great comms & instant payment, no problems here, top fella. Cheerz, John

[quote name='charic' timestamp='1348747470' post='1817645'] One of the TC amps and use the DI? No cab needed and sounds epic [/quote] Help! I don't understand 'we' spend huge amounts of time & money getting the 'right cab/s' (not to mention anything else for now) for 'our sound', then you say "No cab needed and sounds epic"? How does that work? I know what you mean about the DI but what if the system you're DI'd into is crap? Are they all so good?

[quote name='Evil Undead' timestamp='1348695350' post='1817172'] Hmm. I can see this is not going to be an easy choice basically I need to cut my rig size and weight down by a lot without losing much volume. I use a 4ohm markbass 2x12 currently which isn't that heavy for you blokes but to a short lass with back trouble who lives on the top floor it's very heavy [/quote] It is an easy choice - it's your back - your one & only back, look after it while you're still young get a roadie

Extra Extra long Half/Pressure/Ground wound 5 string set

This shows the 'spare' length above the nut on my AV '57 P - the A measures 70mm of usable before the purple silk [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v48/kjon51/Fender%2057%20Precision%20Bass%20American%20Vintage/22082011836.jpg[/IMG] -
Extra Extra long Half/Pressure/Ground wound 5 string set
KiOgon replied to apa's topic in General Discussion
[quote name='apa' timestamp='1348222357' post='1810994'] Hows that for a niche market!! Im desperate to find a set of Half or Ground or Pressure (What ever you want to call them) wound 5 string set but in extra long scale. When I say extra long I mean a voice length of 38 1/2" or 980mm (Ball to Silk) I did buy a set of Status half wounds but they are too short by about 30mm. These are for a fretless. Or if anyone knows who can make a set. Status will but theres a minimum order of 10 packs!! Newton only do round wounds (Although they are planning on custom flats in the new year ) There is the option of extra long Chromes but they are about £50. I do know that GHS (My prefered brand) do the ML720-5 Pressure wound but not sure they will fit. I have seen thier ML3075 Brite Flats mentioned as extra long sets and in 5 string packs but cant find them anywere for sale. Help please!!! A [/quote] I don't suppose it's any help but - GHS Precision flats - say on the packet 38" same with the Black Nylons so I suspect the Groundwounds will be the same. -
The head doesn't look right, I'm sure the machine heads don't come that close to the edge of the head stock on a real Fender
