    I did this to both my Hohners and it makes tuning a breeze but at the cost of losing that long-term tuning stability. I have a plan to see if I can recess the knobs to restore the original appearance.

    My take on 'elf on the shelf'... I sold my Orange Crush 25B this week and replaced it with this Elf 110 combo 😁

  7. Salt on your Bass?
    I've had my te1200 for a good few months now. A few gigs and lots of rehearsals. I love it. First time I've moved away from my matamp in about 8 years or so. Spades of power and proper hefty with the headroom, I pretty much set it flat with a small bass boost and haven't messed with the compressor as I have one on my board. I would recommend them to anyone.

    Stock VVT for me. I've tried alternatives, including an active East pre', but only the stock set-up gives me the classic J bass sound - neck on full, bridge and tone backed off a smidge. Ymmv of course.

    I decided it would be good to keep at least some of the stack-knob look by turning one volume/tone pair into master controls, and replacing the other with a rotary pickup selector or blender, using just the chromed volume knob. But can I hell get the volume knobs off? It feels like the screws have been tightened with one of those air tools that tyre fitters use. I have tried WD40 and heating the knob with a soldering iron, so far without success. The grub screws are slot-head types, and as I apply more torque the screwdriver blade starts to distort, or the blade cams out of the slot - you can only do that so many times before the screw is mullered. Any tips folks? And if you're wondering why I'm sat doing this on Christmas Eve, we've just had tea with the grandkids, and Mrs JapanAxe has sent me to my music room while she does some last-minute wrapping!

    Where we play, each artiste has three songs. They are free to come back round at the end of the list. That makes the assumption that they aren't doing Freebird, Bohemian Rhapsody and Moby Dick (live version). This is across a few open mike clubs.

    Ben bought some hefty bass pedals off me - quick payment and he seemed to enjoy the packaging too! 🤣🌨️⛄️

    I have played at one several times and it always bugged me those that went home after they had played. How long do you give each artiste? I have 5 mics but need to get more mic stands. I have several DIs and lots of guitar cables. I am not thinking that there will be bands but can accommodate them if I take my subs. Now new strings for the acoustic and some real practice, fingers all soft from playing bass.

    *PRICE INCLUDES UK POSTAGE * Wicked pedal! Tracks beautifully. Only selling as I’m now using multi-effect unit. In great condition (I may even have original box…can’t find at the moment m). Does an octave below and/or above. Also has an independent boost effect. Blurb here: Octavius tri-tone generator has 4 controls LO OCT, HIGH OCT, MASTER MIX and BOOST. LO OCT knob lets you set the volume of the lower octave signal produced by the pedal. HIGH OCT knob controls the volume of the higher octave signal produced by the pedal. The balance between the levels of these 2 knobs is what creates your particular octave-divided sound. Experiment with your mix, and you’ll be amazed at the variety of effects you’ll get. MASTER MIX knob lets you set the overall volume of your low and high octaves compared to your direct signal. Use the BOOST knob to control the output of your octave-divided sound. The boost function lets you dial in a solo level, whether the overdrive circuit is activated or not.

    I bloody love these. They sound and play great. Really versatile and aggressive, really good with a pick.

    I used to have trouble with both hands so I need to have both wrists as straight as possible. It gives me the fear when I see YouTube videos of guys with that really crooked right hand playing position

    My experience is not exhaustive. But I had an NS which was beautiful. But it sounded a bit fretless-y with original NS strings. I loaded it up with proper DB strings, raised the action and, voila, there was the DB-alike tone.

    A little solo arrangement (still rough around the edges) that I've been working on over the last few days. Wishing you all a happy Christmas!

    Also applies to the Cort Space and Ibanez EHB.

    Phew, it did fit (just). All wired up and yes, series sounds much better (to me anyway) than parallel. Success! After I had to swap the top and bottom terminals because I got the fifty fifty decision wrong and got my north and south the wrong way round. Typical!

    I have a 2016 version. Sounds and plays excellent.

    I have a related Squier, a MVM Jazz 5 which has been defretted, and I do rather like it. I had a play on a Harley Benton 5-string Jazz at a bass bash in Derby a few years ago (can't remember who brought it) and was also impressed by that, though it was a tad heavy. So I'm not being in the slightest bit helpful. Still, everyone will tell you you need a Precision, and a PJ means you can have one without the horrible Precision neck, and with the possibility of making a bit of difference to the P sound, so the HB might be the one to go for. Unless, of course, it's got the horrible Precision neck.

    Just loving Adrian Shaw's walking line on this.
