Back after a week off, Nine Lives at Wilson's in Aberdeen. Dunno how this one's gonna go - it's the day of the Scottish Cup final featuring Aberdeen and Celtic. So, being a sports/football bar in Aberdeen either it's going to be party central, or (more likely) either dead, miserable or fighty. Wish me luck!

I was going to say Stingray lol The Anaconda basses have great pups, not sure if that qualifies as sissle though.

Hi all, I am making a friend's Gear4Music San Francisco semi acoustic bass playable and I have found that the neck shape and pickup poles really need a trapeze tailpiece with ~55mm spacing rather than the supplied 45mm one. The dimensions are pretty much the same as my acoustic bass which is 55mm at the bridge... Does anyone know if such a thing exists? Before I just make one. The bass is a bit of a Friday special, but was bought during lockdown and never got sent back. Cheers Nick

Payson Bridge Conversion on a Dingwall Bass
MichaelDean replied to WHUFC BASS's topic in Bass Guitars
I think part of the problem is not wanting to necessarily pay for the tooling to create a bespoke bridge for what might (at least in Spector's case) be a niche seller. Dingwall seem to be going great guns so it has made sense to create something. There aren't a lot of off the shelf options for single bridges either and I'm guessing Babicz pricing might price them out of being used more widely as it squeezes the margin just that bit more. -

Lad? Luxury, when I were an Australopithecus... ☺️

Thanks @WinterMute! I think it’s because I played Warwick 5-strings for so many years with their tight string spacing. Wasn’t the sound I was ultimately looking for though; which is a particular shame as this bass sounds exactly the way I want but I can’t quite get my hands round it without drastically changing my technique. And of course most Jazz-style 5-stringers have 19mm spacing. My current main 5-string is a Ken Smith Burner which is 17.5mm and much easier for me to get around. I’ll be sad to see this one go though; it sounds amazing

Speaker advice for Silver Face Bassman
Bill Fitzmaurice replied to revolver's topic in Amps and Cabs
Cabinet technology not so much, but driver technology for sure. You may be able to greatly increase performance replacing it. I can make recommendations knowing the exact internal dimensions of the cab and port. An 8 ohm cab is best, allowing you to use two should the need arise, although with a 100 watt amp it probably would not. -

Payson Bridge Conversion on a Dingwall Bass
WHUFC BASS replied to WHUFC BASS's topic in Bass Guitars
Agreed but it's not just Dingwall who've done this. Spector's fanfret Dimension bass, which is a similar price has similar individual bridge mounts which although not as extreme as the Dingwall offering, aren't as high quality as the Payson or even their own standard bridges.
