  3. Duroc17 started following Fender American Standard Precision bass 2015
  4. Duroc17
    For sale one lovely P bass. Fender took all the good bits; lightweight 8lbs, ace neck rolled fingerboard with satin finish, lightweight tuners, rosewood board, excellent fretwork, a beautifully aging Olympic White that has creamed to perfection. Fenders higher mass bridge with chunky string rests. Thers 4 little dings to the body all pictured but nothing too bad. Mojo added Mods: I bought this from fellow BCer for £900 - allwas good but when I touched the pole pieces I got a buzzing sound. Took to luthier and he tested all the connections and was stumped, he didn’t like some soldering so redid that. But the buzz happened so I put electrical tape over and all fine. So I thought I’d swap out the pickups got Dimarzio Model P and bought a kiOgon loom, then back to luthier to install and also painted cavity with shielding paint- and what a brilliant transformation- whisper quiet, he put some new Ernie Ball super slinky’s in and asked him to lower the action to lowest as I play softly. Also new 3ply white guard which he notch cut and shielded. It comes with new padded fender bag and I also have a box for UK shipping So the bass owes me £1200 all in thereabouts. I’m asking for £1000 posted. This is BCer price I’ll be asking £1150 on other platforms- and you people will know how great these are and as stock fetch £1100-1200 regularly- so priced to sell no trades or offers - as reason for sale is bought an old 50s P back, a Japanese import Jazz which is now my main bass and a new rig - so as unhappy as I am to sell thus needs must, unfortunately Come have a plat in Clitheroe or meet up within hour drive. Or can post UK £30

    That's boss-level help from @Richard R - first tells me that I have a T2 fail by precedent (fair enough). And then shares a link to an excellent magazine on Raspberry Pi project, with an article on building a Yamaha DX7 clone based on a Raspberry Pi ("Fail again, fail better..."). My package from Kitronik arrives between 9:17 and 10:17 today. Until then (and until @neepheid arrives to pronounce my failure), I consider myself innocent....

    Good rehearsal last night, first time going through Won’t Get Fooled Again and we got further with it than expected. Have decided I’m going to start using my amp though, the studios amps are ok but it’s a different amp each week which takes me a while to get the sound where I want it.

    As the title says!! Don’t need to report them just don’t want to see their posts. Any ideas??
  9. Minininjarob
    Well thankyou for, as usual, just telling me I’m wrong without offering any useful help. I don’t know why you single me out to look down on. Thankfully there is someone I am working with via DM who is helpful and we are working together as we both have the same issue, and we have managed to figure out the best steps forward. And that’s all I’m gonna say on this thread.

    Have you set the input to bass? That makes all the difference.

    I now have had for two weeks a flippin ear infection. Already on second lot of antirobotics and I am now seriously worried as I realised this morning when playing with headphones on I have no high frequencies in my affected ear. No amount of buying new gear is gonna help that if it doesn’t sort itself out.

    Thursday night at The Fox Town Annex in Mequon. I thought we were sloppy. It hasn't been announced but I think our drummer dumped us. He's turned down 8 summer bookings. Great drummer and singer but apparently isn't into us. I was really good about chatting at tables with the punters. I had put a few scripts together that worked very well. Good crowd and a lot of dancing. I guess people are easy to please. I'm starting to question the direction of the band. But where could I find another money making band at 72 years old? Daryl

    Beautiful bass! 👌 Far to good to be sitting around unused, @Rich Glad to hear Paul's done such a good job on it too... Under Wal himself, and Pete the Fish, 'Wal' customer service was always outstanding over the years, and Paul has maintained that tradition for sure.

    Endless dangling objects on backpacks. just stop it.

    The thermistor doesn’t have anything to do with the input stage. Good luck.

    https://www.aurokcomposites.com/ I'd be grateful for a fresh set of eyes, so if any of you would like to pick holes in it over the weekend, feel more than welcome. It's taken 3 months for me to put the site together after some intense reflection on what to offer and how to offer it. I find it easy to lose track of small details like wording consistency, or a lack of clarity on specification after my nose has been up against the glass for so long. Basically I've standardised products based on what we've been asked for in the four batches made so far. For example, no demand for wooden fingerboards (which surprised me as I really like how they tame fret noise) and no block inlays, so we aren't going to offer them as part of the standard spec. Also, because we're low volume, I can tend to each order personally so no need for a complicated ordering system...yet. (I'll have to look at scaling production capacity and embedding QC before that becomes feasible.) On Sunday evening, I'll email an update to subscribers and post on Facebook. Cheers!

    Absolute bargain. I have the same LPB model and everyone compliments it.

    Didn't even know of the CTM pre, though I've got a CTM 30 which is very enjoyable. Were did you find it, was it expensive.

    Any trades?

    I'm winding everything back now and having a clearout of all the stuff I'm unlikely to ever use again. I'm open to sensible offers for any of these - the £900 shown in the listing is for the whole lot, collected. Prices include postage to UK addresses apart from the Take 5 - please PM to discuss collection or delivery options for that. Given that this is a clearout, I'm not really looking for swaps but feel free to let me know if you have anything - to be honest, it's unlikely but you never know! Sequential Take 5 analogue synth - immaculate condition, boxed, upgraded to the latest firmware and patches £750 Zoom R12 portable multitrack recorder - bought to record the band at rehearsal and only used once before the band imploded. Boxed, immaculate £150 Roland VT4 voice transformer - bought when I entertained fantasies of singing backing vox. Again, used just the once and then retired along with the rest of my dreams. £125 UNO drum machine - a great little drum machine, fantastic for giving us a basic beat whenever the drummer failed to make rehearsals. Light usage, boxed and immaculate condition £100 Waldorf Streichfett string synth - surprisingly versatile little synth that does a great job of recreating the sound of 70s string synths. Immaculate, boxed £150 Thanks for looking - if you have any questions or would like photographs, please PM

    They most certainly are. Unfortunately i used the box to send out some other older TI's i had.

    I’ve got someone who is helping me via DM. I have almost taken it apart now so I can see the tracks underneath, but yeah you’re right that’s a primary circuit relay, no idea what it’s doing there but when I can see the layout it’ll make more sense. Checked the only thermistor I can find on the board and that’s working fine, it’s attached to a transistor in (I think) the input stage which isn’t bolted to the heating. Got some other things to check too. Grr I hate these sorts of circuits. Wish I still had all my electrical testing stuff I had when I was much younger (and I could remember anything that was taught me! It’s fun to try and relearn it all though).
