    Jim dunlop flush mount straplocks. Very good condition. The female part of the lock is designed to sit flush in the body of the guitar. Dunlop describes it like this: "The specially designed strap buttons are installed flush with the guitar body leaving nothing protruding when not using a strap for playing comfort. The strap secures to the button with a 360 groove and ball design allowing the unit to rotate without catching, the strap can be easily attached and removed from the guitar when required using the push button and interchangeable strap buttons allow the same strap to be used with several guitars. Case hardened steel skin for guaranteed long life and the system has been tested up to 800lbs of pull." Price includes UK postage.

    Hi ! I don't feel so comfortable yet, they are not classic jazz standards. The piano is tuned in A 442 Hz, the bass is not but maybe it should.

    Main board finished(-ish). The keen-eyed will notice a change in dropping resistor in the middle of the board. I had mistakenly written 1k instead of 10k on my layout! Also what I thought I were 22nF caps in my stash were actually 2.2nF, so I've had to order some more 22nF - hence the unpopulated gap next to the honking great 100uF/500V cap.

    I use hercules on stage. Got two of the foam leg type as the type with the fold down bit is useless on stage. I now use my one the foldy bit with it not folded down for my current home noodle bass. All my other basses/guitars are either cased, on the wall or in a rack. I keep my acoustics on the wall or on these: Excuse the stickers... it was my daughter's, she wanted to sell it as happy with her Tanglewood and I didn't have an electoacoustic.

However one of the tuning peg ends has sheared off and needs a replacement… weirdly that string is still perfectly in tune 8 months after that peg sheared and I played the Newcastle City Hall gig (video below) at Christmas 2024 without the tuner! In fact Google Cheat Trick (Cheap Trick Tribute) to hear recordings and live examples of this bass.

    Excellent condition with no issues. It is soft aged at the factory. Has been modified with a J pup at the bridge position (DiMarzio) and the controls are presently Vol / Pan (no tone control as I've never seen the point!). I should have put the scratchplate back on, I do have it here and it will be included. Super low action.

    They have dual truss rods , and the older bridges are tricky to adjust , but that said the older ones are incredibly stable. Mine do not do the usual seasonal shifts. I’ve only had to adjust the truss rods on my 4001 twice in close to thirty years. My 4000 has only been set once.since I got it. Mine have required minimal maintenance. They are very different than a Fender style instrument. I did once have to adjust the output jack on my stereo 4001. A quick tweak with some needle nosed pliers fixed that.

    Excellent condition for a 30 year old bass, with no issues. Classic Musicman Stingray style bridge with mutes. One of those basses that is so good that I've owned it twice! Only point of note is the 2 small holes in the pickguard where someone mounted a thumb-rest. Weight is 9lb (exactly) or 4.1kg. The neck is less wide and less 'full' than a Stingray neck and is often compared more to a Jazz profile than say a Precision. This is the earliest version with the metal battery compartment cover. Trades - 34" Sandberg... possibly.

    I felt I was getting a 'ric' tone from my P the other day.

    I modelled the cab with 50,40 and 30 Hz tuning, all f them work with the standard Eminence Beta but with slightly differing frequency responses. Because speakers in roughly similar price brackets tend to have reasonably similar performances it often happens that they will 'work' when swapped even if a little more performance could be gained by proper matching. Without proper specs I'm guessng of course but in this case I can't really expect problems.

    Schematic and chassis layout are quite freely available online if you search for Brown Note D'lite. It was a kit build. A guitar playing buddy who'd been through (conservatively) £20k of amplification in 5 years at that point said it was the best amp he'd ever played so I was pretty chuffed at that...
