  1. The binding and side dots are now done Next up is fingerboard radiusing and fretwork.
  2. That’s the beauty of watching other people’s builds come to life, more ideas!! Do it
  3. The new Duff McKagan signature bass has taken all its visual cues from this, I’d like to point out 😃
  4. Half the blocks now inlaid:
  5. Nope 500W. I’ve had the 800 in the past (the original one) and it was amazing. Wish I’d never sold it (a recurring theme for me on this thread!) and so I went for the 500 Evo ii when it was released because of the headphone socket too. Part of me is tempted to shop it for the 800 again but there’s no point, the ABM takes care of that volume
  6. 🤓 The ABM delivers “proper Trace Watts” all by itself, it’s a beast Tell you what actually, my NYE gig was a loud rock band and I had to switch the RM out for the ABM. I didn’t have PA support and the RM was loud enough but had nothing left for peaks. The ABM just destroyed the room in comparison 🤣
  7. Like a bigger version of my Little Bastard funnily enough. God I’m tempted to add to my VU meter collection.
  8. I’ve had two, and regretted selling both, if that helps 🤔
  9. My new Zoot Funkmeister isn’t that far off this colour scheme. I was my idea first 🤣🧐
  10. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F273667535582 Hmmm.
  11. My favouritest of all the bass amps, GLWTS
  12. Liking the look of GKs new amps: https://www.instagram.com/p/BtEVPQPn8UL/?utm_source=ig_share_sheet&igshid=6orgr2ok2kpc
  13. Interesting point! I’m not using flats on this - it’ll have Newtone nickels on it - but even so the B string would no doubt benefit from a less sharp angle across the saddles. Don’t think we have enough room on the body though.... will check!
  14. Oh you totally should video it!!
  15. Mike’s been productive with bits of MOP and an ebony board recently, as these pictures attest. There’s also going to be white binding round the edge of the board, which is going to look stunning given the way everything else already looks amazing
  16. Forgot one important aspect - this will be a set neck design, the first time I’ve had one. Anyhoo, here’s the bridge and ferrule for the thru-body stringing:
  17. That’s one good looking MM - nice!
  18. I’m still in! I even spent time yesterday deliberately not looking at bass porn and speaker cab goodness and decided to try practice instead. It worked too.
  19. That particular Marusczcyk has sold if you check the price bit! I played it while it was still around and liked it a lot. There is this though...: http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/SH_Maruszczyk_Elwood_4p_Short_Scale.html edit - sorry just seen the comment about tort plates! Damn.
