  1. Past hour
  2. Nice example of a 2022 Made in Mexico Player Precision, and light too at 8.3lbs. Can do with either black tort or white plates as per pics. Holes in the headstock where I added the Hipshot triple retainer. No case or gigbag so collection/meet only. No trades thanks.

  3. Ashdown...best customer service in the industry... I really must send mine down to be serviced...
  4. It’s a bit of a strange one, the tuner and the lever are chrome but the shaft where the string goes round and the nut attachment that fixes it to the headstock are both nickel.
  5. Beautiful
  6. Stunning bass! Shame you're not in the UK.
  7. Sometimes we look through the lyrics, if there's a phrase in there that sounds appropriate, sometimes it might not be for the song title but works well for an EP
  8. Loving the use of the Casio watch to utilise all the space on the board! An F91w?
  9. And don't forget the piezo equipped models.
  10. You’ve already fitted right in. 👍
  11. Anyone compared the Boss GX10 with the Boss GX-1B ?
  12. I want recommendations for tube pres that breakup. I can name you three right now but sadly i've never tried any of them. Overdriving the preamp tubes is the most common way to create distortion in tube amps these days and usually sounds good. See paul_5's response above on the how the SVP Pro's distortion circuit works. Saying "It's impossible to get distortion with a preamp" a) is wrong, b) doesn't answer the question, and c) is annoying because it implies the questioner doesn't know what they're talking about. I'm just looking for a bit of crunch, not Steve Vai, but tube crunch > tranny crunch in my opinion and it means your crunch sound is consistent with your clean sound. Anyone tried Mark Bass Vintage Pre? I see it has a clean to crunch dial
  13. Had a couple of questions about the size of the Bart pickups. I measure these as approx 118mm x 33mm, very similar and interchangeable with the P4 size used by Bartolini USA (I replaced the pickups in my Ibanez with a P4 sized set with no modifications).
  14. Ah, sadly I sold mine but mainly because it was noisy. They're pretty rare
  15. @run 3 Welcome! Glad to have you here
  16. You see, the effect of the title is already working: That piqued your interest.
  17. Welcome! Great to see you joining the bass side as well. PolyTrack
  18. Tried it again at volume and I think it sounds best Compressor Off Shape Off It then sounds full and punchy In isolation the Shape ON sounds wonderful but you get buried in the mix so OFF is better unless you play slap perhaps
  19. I have a Musima bass identical to this and it’s done best part of 70 gigs a year, chucked in and out of vans, left in hot cars, humid places, etc and it’s always been rock solid and sounds great.
  20. I'd like to add there briefly was a Stingray neck-through, and there were some wonderful limited editions and anniversary models that are hard to come by. 20th anniversary: The 4-string got a mahogany body, quilted maple top, red tort pickguard and no control plate. Quite sexy! Stingray 5 20th anniversary (yes, specifically for the 5's birthday): this one really hit the ball out of the park in 2007 with a flamed or quilted maple top, natural maple faux-binding (just veneer-thin but enough to add a beautiful contrast). To me this is the sexiest Stingray ever built; 30th anniversary: like your regular Stingray 3EQ but with a mahogany body, and a gloss finished neck in matching colour (dark red); 35th anniversary: arguably the second-sexiest Stingray ever made, at least in my opinion! Based on the current Stingray Special, these have an ash body with a spalted maple top in sunburst, with a natural faux-binding, ebony fingerboard with "copper pearloid" block inlays and they look business; Stingray 5 30th anniversary: white, tort guard, roasted maple neck and fingerboard and white fingerboard bindings; The elusive 2001 NAMM 100th anniversary silver Stingray with Status Graphite neck, harking back to the pre-EB 1981 Cutlass 1 basses; Many, many very nice limited "colour of the year" limited editions, Premium Dealer Network exclusives and Vault-exclusive finishes that could only be ordered directly through EBMM's own webshop.
  21. Some crazy Canadian mathtyperock...
  22. Autocorrect does not know about detuning a bass.
  23. I think the drawing in post1 was amended after your suggestion as those are the dimensions on my copy of the drawing. Thank you.
  24. The ebony dust / epoxy (or ca glue) method mentioned by @Andyjr1515 works really well. The filled holes will be virtually invisible.
