The pickup covers and bridge covers have never been attached to my American Original Jazz since new. Nor will they ever be. No unsightly holes in my bass, thank you very much. If I take an instrument's scratch guard off, I always lay the screws out in the exact pattern they came in, so the correct stew goes back into its original hole. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to walk to the Post Office without walking on a single paving slab crack or join... 🤔

Ive actually switched up the Longsword for the MAE Black Math since taking this picture but very happy with the angry tones I get out of this. It can get pretty gnarly 👌 Heres a quick jam featuring The Accountant > Dagger > Model FeT > Bass Driver > Opus (with power amp and Science IRs):

Oh that? It's the new Paul Simonon road worn signature Precision, costs a fortune that does.

Cash Converters has a Mayones Cali Mini Fretless at a bargain
Jack replied to fretmeister's topic in Bass Guitars
I am significantly smaller than that but I don't think I want a fretless that small with how terrible my intonation is even on a full scale. At what point does it just become a violin? -

believe it or not The Francis Rossi/Rick Parfitt one is good Bananarama also interesting and I've read Andrew Ridgley's one again all very interesting not really bass related but still good reads

Id still trust the WS-90, but will avoid using it at home. Ive only really just started using it with FX so maybe its always been like this, but until recently i had have no issues at all. Always thought it looked ugly though. For reference, here are the 3 i own side by side.

That's amazing for a duo act!

Roll off each pickup and see if that makes the issue change. It's not a complex circuit. Could you send me some photos of inside the cavity to see if there's anything obvious?

Shielding issue is also a good shout especially if it is worse when you move nearer your amp

Most pub music venues have realised a solo singer or duo, open mic night is a cheap way to give live music paying £150-£200 As a band it should be around £300-£400 but most small pubs cannot afford it paying £200 -£300 tops Plus the old bands play too loud issue is often a reason not to get re-booked if they are struggling locally with noise complaints. I don’t think pub venues have a clue about band quality or how good they are and book the same old bands each month as a lazy approach to booking music
