    It's two thirds of a 63 neck and replacement parts. I can't see many folk going for that!

    Most of these are Hercules, some are String Swing, which are also decent. I've put more up in the studio since that photo was taken and have 8 more on walls in the house. None have failed yet!

    Hercules do make a long arm hanger. However, I don't trust it for anything heavier than an Ashbory.

    Great amp, bargain price. Love mine!

    If you play something that's quite close to the recording that they have in their head, they'll mentally supply all the other bits. Get too far from the original and the gears will start to grind though.

    Shame it doesn't have a kick back... slope like the top.
  15. mikeswals
    Yup, its no longer "1962". I really hate it when people do that. More than half is gone.
  16. uk_lefty
    Yeah I am not going to get too excited with it... I have some individual hangers to fit elsewhere in the room for the "posh" instruments!
  17. uk_lefty
    The screws are much longer and better quality than I was expecting. I have been very careful with this and will continue to be, only the lightest weight stuff going on there. I think four guitars on there is too many, I will only keep two or three on there at a time and none of the expensive ones!

    Incredible pedal. I used to use this in my main live rig as a compressor and end of chain limiter. One of TC’s best ever pedals IMO.

    I do think it IS getting harder to convince the “I won’t pay for music” crowds the value of what we do. It’s bad enough trying to get a “like” and a “share” for slaving for hours over a video editor!

    To put it another way, my friend is a top-tier bassist who gets to play with one of the most famous bands in the world, but his follower numbers are absolutely dwarfed by pretty people who know how to put out for the camera.

    Originally planned to keep this bass longer, but things have changed. I am currently using it to record a product review where I have swapped out the pickups. When complete all the electronics will be returned to stock and the bass will be up for sale. Unfortunately the bass does have an issue which affects the price and therefore I am selling it more as parts than an “as new” example - despite it being in otherwise incredible condition. The truss rod is and has always been stuck. Thankfully, if you like a pretty flat neck, that’s where it is right now. Highlights: Roasted Neck, Nordstrand Pickups, Luminlay, Hipshot Tuners, Babicz FCH Bridge, Markbass preamp, ULTRA light bass, Bone nut, 22 Frets A great bass has just the right blend of timeless design and modernized features. The GB Modern bass is developed for the J-Bass enthusiasts with a surprisingly lightweight design for greater comfort and enhanced playability while reducing fatigue. Also featured are top tier visual and spec enhancements such as roasted maple neck and fretboard, Hipshot® Ultralite Tuners and Babicz® FCH4 Bridge to reduce the weight even further, and an ultimate tone combination of Nordstrand® Big Single Pickup Set paired with MarkBass® MB Instrument Pre preamp system.

    Yep, that about sums up my gigging career to date.
  30. rwillett started following Cheap wall hanger...
  31. rwillett
    Looked at that and thought the same thing. Two screws and two levers each 200mm ish from wall and each with 4kg on the end. A lot of leverage for two screws to handle. No idea what wall it's connected to and how long the screws are but I'd be worried.

    Not forgetting the CNC cutting machine!
  33. Silky999
    Yeah, I am using templates for the body shape at the moment until I get my eye in. The curved edges are a 12.7mm round over router bit (no template) and I did the comfort cut by eye and hand with a Shinto and sanding. The comfort cut is not very pronounced as I quite like the more subtle less angled style I have P bass and Jazz bass templates so can do either. I’m not brave enough to try necks yet so will keep using the Chinese ones for the time being until I can get a radius jig, fretting cutting jig, truss rod jig etc. It’s all so bloody expensive! It does mean that I am not limited to pre cut bodies now so in theory can use any wood I can source.

    Apparently the 'current' version has an alder body. That said, although mine is supposed to be basswood, it's 9.4lbs so it wouldn't surprise me if it turned out to be alder.
