Si[/quote] Cheers Si, If a marcus miller neck came up at the right price then who knows, That would have been my 1st choice but I jumped at the geddy neck & I'm really pleased with it. Any pics of your Precision? Anth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have thought about getting a tort on but the white plate with the black screws looks nice & tidy to me. I'll get some better pics up maybe at the end of the week as my camera is about as good as a Encore 12 string! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Audere preamp it gives the bass a lot more range of tones & flicking between the 2 pickups theres plenty the choose from.
