[quote name='TraceElliotBass' timestamp='1327409292' post='1510645'] I am really pleased with my new set up and the first time in 11-12 years there is no sign of no Trace Elliot! [/quote] Is it time to email the mods and request a username change now?

Ah man, I cannot wait to get my S12T...

[quote name='grunge666' timestamp='1327264366' post='1508616'] It's here! [/quote] looks awesome dude

I cant wait to get one... someone buy my Ampeg please!!!

[quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1326967520' post='1504316'] Stick with the Jazz..... and dream on about the hot chick bass player. Learn about EQ'ing a bass and you'll get more than close to that sound, IMO. [/quote] +1 Never heard of Laguna. The tone is all in your fingers... The Squier J is a great bass to start on.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1327060495' post='1505810'] How's it going in Chair Town? [/quote] Pretty good thanks mate, hows you?

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1327060340' post='1505804'] Nah, that's Geoff. [/quote] Silly me. My mistake.

I thought Cobalt was the guitarist in Zodiac Mindwarp...

Lucky man, I was only just emailing Jon this week about his next available courses... have a great time!

Ah sounds good with the wiring. That'll be a big old job making a Sihouette though!!

[quote name='Gust0o' timestamp='1326966168' post='1504281'] I'm mid-course at the moment, going back next week to finish my bass. I think the only advice I'd offer, is be reasonable about what you can achieve - you'll be spending a lot of time sanding and learning the tricks of the trade, so a little modesty in design is probably advisable, if you're hoping to finish before you leave! Happy to be PM'ed or talk here, if you have questions. Long and short is I've been loving it. [/quote] Are you doing the group course or the one-on-one? Have you got any pics of your build? I'd love to see what you're building and how it's coming along.

[quote name='Prime_BASS' timestamp='1326960645' post='1504181'] I have ideas that have never been done! [/quote] Sounds very interesting... I take it those plans are all under wraps??

I never thought the sabre was quite right, for example the scratchplate wasnt designed very well i thought. I love my stingray and my jazz so I started again combining the two adding a few features to make it different.

[quote name='dood' timestamp='1326917850' post='1503823'] I reckon you'll be getting lots of requests to help design other BCers basses too! That looks really cool! [/quote] It's odd how the Spector style headstock actually looks okay with a Fender-ish body... didn't expect that to work at all...

[quote name='Phil-osopher10' timestamp='1326911669' post='1503686'] How did you do that design? [/quote] Photoshop. Found a hi-res pic of a jazz, modified the body slightly, changed the head and fretboard then overlaid a pic of some wood over the body, recoloured it and dropped in the hardware i wanted on the bass. I have a feeling the real-life build won't be so easy...
