  1. Past hour
  2. We're going to be doing some J pickup A/B testing at the SE Bash. If anyone wants to bring their Toneriders along that would be fab. Obviously, loaded in a bass 😄
  3. I've been known to double tap in a 'duet' with the guitarist. I even had someone come up to me afterwards and say how epic it was!
  4. I have a Warwick Thumb NT4 i bought in 1989 and love it. Its a keeper and has one of the best necks i've ever played. Its just a bit heavy to gig these days and doesn't suit the Glam band. Did have a Streamer on loan when my Thumb was sent back to Germany after the electronic module failed. Sealed unit and could not be repaired locally back then. Dave
  5. Burning Down The House - Talking Heads
  6. Mine too. But he's got major house work to keep him occupied, do maybe he'll slow down? 🤔
  7. I’d lose that. @AndyTravis would be my bet
  8. The Dangerous Kitchen - Zappa
  9. I opted for the ditto x2 should be with me this week. Having stereo gives the option of put another instrument in. Looking to having fun with this.
  10. Good shout, I was wondering about replacing the single saddle but didn't think about buying from AliExpress. Cheers for that!
  11. Customish pickguard pretty much sorted, although unordered. Nice deep tortoiseshell. I'll give you this:

  14. Absolutely I am not doing that or even trying to do it. This is sascha’s thread
  15. This jazz bass is a bit of a mystery. The person I bought it off bought it like this so he knows nothing of it either. Its an exceptional jazz bass. Looks and sounds gorgeous. It has had the following mods by the looks of it: 1. Metal nut. 2. New machine heads / Tuners. 3. New pick ups. 4. New active preamp. 5. Fender high mass bridge. 6. "Leo" decal. It has a gorgeous wood and is beautifully finished. The neck is one of the best shapes I've played. It's quite flat feeling and very easy to play. The machine heads have been changed, I can tell as one is slightly proud, but doesn't affect anything. The pickups are just lovely. Mixed with the preamp this gives a ridiculous amount of tones available. The front does a decent p sound. The bridge gives that classic jazz sound. The high mass bridge by Fender improves stability and sustain. The jack isnt on the control plate, it's in the body position. Its on the heavier side, I would say over 4kg. As I say, I don't know what this started as, or what it is, I just know it's a beastly jazz. Plays and sounds lovely, is super versatile and looks beautiful. I'm guessing but the price for the upgrades would have been expensive. Pick up Leyland Lancashire.
  16. This is such a cool thing. Is a truss rod-less graphite neck possible? Always loved that aspect of aluminium ones.
  17. Cleanup Time — John Lennon
  18. There's a market for it, otherwise it wouldn't be trending. Although the market is just a prosumer market with no financial worth to the consumer. All the money is in the adverts between the content. If there truly was a market for it, the musicians would all be doing it on subscriber channels. SBL and the like have additional content that you pay for.
  19. I sometimes tell myself I don't need four thunderbirds, but then I don't want to part with any of them.
  20. Trades - X Touch Universal, maybe Alto TS215. Great bass in good condition, comes with hard case. Short scale. Not a heavy bass. Plays well. Not really any damage to speak of. There’s a little bit at the top of the headstock (photographed) but looks much worse than it actually is. I’ve removed the strap lock pins and replaced them with the originals that were odd when I got it. The case is old but fully function and all the clasps work. Can post at buyers expense or can be collected from BB22SH Any questions please ask.

  21. Today
  22. It sounds like it *might* be user error after all... :rolleyes: I've noticed that you CAN turn the units on while in the box. I noticed that while putting the box in the gigbag, where it usually lives. I must have pressed the button for one of the units without realising, and there it was shining... Today, after making sure charger box, transmitter and receiver were all fully charged, I simply turned both units on, set a timer next to them on my desk, and carried on with my work. Four hours later both were still fine. I'm not sure if there's much difference in power consumption between them being 'on but unused', or 'on and used'. While I figure things out, I am going to find a safer way to carry these things.
  23. I reckon that’s a pickup.
  24. The pink was bought from Rothko and Frost when I purchased the Paisley paper sheets. It's Dartfords "Paisley Pink" nitrocellulose lacquer https://rothkoandfrost.com/products/paisley-pink-pigmented-nitrocellulose-guitar-lacquer-400ml-aerosol?_pos=10&_sid=b0219a1bb&_ss=r
