WTAF ? When you aliens take over the minds of our members it would really help you pass unnoticed if you don’t make stupid uncharacteristic statements like that. no genuine basschat member would ever come out with such rubbish 🤦‍♂️ Do your freaking homework !

IME - and I've done both - it's often more economic to simply buy an aftermarket body in the preferred finish than it is to refin the existing body; for example a while back I bought a stunning new Warmoth 3tsb body for not a lot more than a refin had recently cost me, which was close to £400. OK it's most useful with Fenders/Fenderalikes and MMs of course but there's a 90% chance after all 👍

Silky's costs are obviously without the luither taking it apart, reassembling it afterwards and doing a set up. Which are all additional costings.

Can't Stand The Pain — The Pretty Things

Brilliant, Now I know who to ask...

No, your thinking is sound. It'll go plenty loud, just not the way it's currently hooked up. Main concern last Friday was practical stuff, had I cut the pickup slots in the right place/ did they fit the cavities/ would the bloody thing make a sound etc 😆 Took the coward's route for wiring, 4 pickups in parallel. Going 2 pairs in parallel or 4 in series will up the output.

I might love a pedals that have features from a few manufacturers: - Boss tracking of an octaver, Cog's sound - tce SCF and HyperGravity with bass specific adjustments from Iron Ether (and with Taylor's X-over to SCF) - Onkart Gromt's tiny but very user friendly display to any envelope or compressor pedal (their envelope is very good) I would also love to see a foot controlled pot that could be assigned to whichever adjustment user likes to tweak while playing. Now some pedals have an input to an external vol pedal.

Not with any intention

Everybody Hurts - REM

My "do-it-while-you-can" moment arrived the day my younger sister was diagnosed with a terminal glioblastoma aged 44. She was young, relatively fit and healthy, a mother, a partner and to be told that it's extremely unlikely your 44 year old sibling will survive this is a moment that I'll never forget. Our mum believed that a cure would be found and that she would be ok - the trip to tell her that her daughter had passed away in person, not by phone was a harrowing journey knowing what lay at the end of my travels. It changed my outlook on life...changed the way I looked at blame. If something isn't my fault, not a decision I have made or had any input in then just don't stress it. Equally, if I had any involvement did I try my hardest? Did I try my best? Again, if I can honestly answer yes then don't stress. I do things not because my sister wanted to do the same things, but because she was denied the opportunity to do them, even if she didn't want to! Our grip on this life is slender - live your life to the full and in a way that brings joy to you.

You can get the Hipshot style ones cheaply too. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004824551050.html
