niceguyhomer Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 That's the finish I was hoping for - gorgeous mate. Mind you, mine's not too shabby. Quote
thedontcarebear Posted August 8, 2008 Author Posted August 8, 2008 Yeah, I saw yours, looks awesome too. Quote
TDM Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 That looks awesome! I'm not a huge fan of burls, but yours looks very nice. Quote
thedontcarebear Posted August 8, 2008 Author Posted August 8, 2008 What are the controls? Two volumes at top, bottom right when looking from the top) is bass I assume, other does nothing at all? Is it meant to be treble? Quote
thedontcarebear Posted August 8, 2008 Author Posted August 8, 2008 I checked the back out and there is nothing disconnected, is it just very subtle, or is mine just not working? Any idea what pot I would need to replace it? Quote
niceguyhomer Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 The treble goes to extreme trebliness - it definitely isn't subtle. You might have a problem. Quote
thedontcarebear Posted August 8, 2008 Author Posted August 8, 2008 Oh well, hopefully it's just an issue with the pot, I never use eq's on basses anyway. Added some proper photos to the top post. Quote
niceguyhomer Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 It'll be something and nothing - easily fixed methinks. Quote
thedontcarebear Posted August 8, 2008 Author Posted August 8, 2008 I fixed it! Was going to swap the pot as my housemate had some bass EMG ones around, then noticed they weren't the same, so was going to just resolder it, but I noticed 2 of the tabs were bent and touching, moved them apart, and there we go, trebley goodness!

doctor_of_the_bass Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 You kept that one quiet mate! Lovely! This now means we are the East Anglian Vigier/Spector Society! (I've got a US NS-2!!). Bring her down the studio sometime! Quote
thedontcarebear Posted August 8, 2008 Author Posted August 8, 2008 You need to get a Sandberg so we can be the East Anglian Spector/Vigier/Sandberg society! Quote
doctor_of_the_bass Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Good idea! I've got a Sandbag - does that count?! No, sorry, a Handbag! Quote
