Hi. I’m looking to buy some white pickup covers for my Mex P bass to give it a kinda Paul Simenon look. I have 2/3 sets of aftermarket ones but they are too big for the pick guard. Does anyone know if Fender sell them? Can only see black ones and/or - has anyone bought any that actually fit? Thx. Andy

Cracking gig at The Bungalow in Paisley. Depping with a band I used to play with a few years back! Great fun and very very busy! Got to use my newest bass which is the Deaky bass as seen on this very forum! It rocks!!

Sold and Aggie OBP3 preamp to Craig. Good comms, fast payment, headache-free experience. Top bloke

Bought a 2-band MM Stingray from him. Excellent fella and makes a lovely espresso

Brian bought some Sadowsky knobs from me. Excellent comms, fast payment, top bloke

Agreed.

Should do, assuming that the input sensitivity is sufficient (mic level rather than line level).

All set up and ready to go👌The regular pedal sized Bass Driver can’t come sooner 🤣

I looked at Astrides when I needed a new 7 string electric guitar. I'd written some pieces with a 7 string Strandberg but really didn't get on with the trapezoid neck profile and never bonded with the guitar. In the end I chose a Music Man Kaizen 7 string, which has a lovely neck profile and fantastic versatile tone (I play 7 string melodic fingerstyle, generally clean so not metal at all!). Would still love to try an Astrides sometime.

What?! It's not even multiscale! 🤣

I used to like the way MK wasn't afraid to change his tone from track to track on the studio albums back in the '80's. Like on that song Micro Kid on Standing In The Light it sounds like he's cranked the mid and treble controls on his JayDee. This Croydon gig sounds not dissimilar to that tone:

This piano hasn't seen the light of day since around 6 months, when I started playing again (and definitely) one with 88 black and white keys. Maybe I'll even sell that Le Fay...

Very nice, but no thanks, they are the same as I fitted on my P Bass. £60 is a good price, don't sell them any cheaper... Thanks anyway, Gaz.

12-14m but that was me just asking for basic, orientational quote - line in the sand if you will. I imagine this gets adjusted from there based on magnitude of bespoke adjustments within the order (never been through full custom order process myself m, I wish I was :))

Is that the piano you’re playing now

5-string set reversible, £60?

That said, owning this means that I'm easy to convince about Aristides instruments...

A .50 G should fit fine. I've done the same this week actually, going back to a .70 D and a .50 G (Fender flats). I'm working on using open strings to help with transitions and the thinner strings I had on weren't cutting it. Both strings fit fine on my Fender P.

Careful curation? hah - not in our band, the sax gets everywhere!

Those were the days! Such an exciting time for bass players.
