AKAi replace the ECC83 tubes wiry ECC81 tubes. They're not as gainey and give a cleaner sound.

Maybe I’m a Leo…

I've got a Yamaha BB2025 and the low B is awesome on the P-style pickup, even with the relatively light 120-gauged string I like to use. I suppose it depends on your definition of a P Bass because the you can definitely hear elements of that Fender sound in the Yamaha but it's got it's own distinct identity too. There's so many factors to considering what makes a low B string sound sufficiently uniform with the other four strings. I think the bridge design plays a huge part and the bridge Yamaha designed for those basses with a narrow witness point over the saddle really helps give clarity and even harmonics in the notes.

You haven’t seen the Alpher, Bassmods Cort, Dusenburg, Enfield, Fender, Gibson, Hartke, Ibanez, Jackson, Kramer, Labella, Musicman, Nordstrand or Overwater rooms he also has first

I got a template and a proper punch as well, the problem is when I actually hit it with the drill. I don't have a big machine, just a hand drill with step heads. If I am off 0.5mm to the left here, and 0.5mm to the right there, this is barely noticeable with some pot wiggle, but when two boards needs to be aligned for header pins, and the footswitch can't wiggle, and you realise both audio jacks are just a TAD further from the enclosure than they should be... it's suddenly a bigger problem 😁 But honestly, I am surprised the prototype is not a lot worse. I did not expect a lot from some first experiment. Now I wonder if it works. The Pot Hell will confirm hopefully in a couple days, depending on free time. Will also need to adjust the design using what I learned.

The green is the colour the Shoreline Gold became when the yellowed lacquer was applied

Personally, I’d divorce you if you bought something so horrid! A Hawkes double bass is a different matter…

That’s a lot of sockets! my method is to print the drill points on paper, then prit stick it to the enclosure and centre punch through the paper

Hmm... Turns out it's not as easy as all that..!

You won't get either trust me

👌. Thrilled to see a "skippable" bass brought back to life. Chickens and all.

About £300 new. Maybe £200 used. It will likely beat a £200 wooden bow with ease but as you can buy new for £300......

Blimey. Why Peavey?

For that money Id want them to cover the cost of the divorce !

Blooming lovely. Is that green a true representation of what it looks like in the flesh? Inspired choice if it is.

Don't we all consider a brand new purchase as a bit of a toy to play with? I know I do! LOL As I said: Enjoy! I hope you get the same pleasure I get from playing through my B15NF

If you buy it, do not start about putting frets to it, no!

Well, here's a weird one... Thisnis a jazz I bought a bit ago - never seen or heard of these, or even where you'd get the logo. Looks cool though. Mojo without imitation.

OK, here is some of the Peaveys.

You can always get another wife...
