    I think I've played with this person. A lot of enthusiasm, no ability and a huge amount of weed. Actually, that describes three guitarists I've encountered.
  4. Bassybert started following Epiphone... G-3?
  5. Bassybert
    Looks great and sounds fabulous 👌🏻 £1200 though😮

    Me, too. But the thing is I can't seem to remember ever seeing a Spector with a wenge neck. Stuart was adamant about using 3 piece maple necks which were sourced from the East Coast of the US, even exporting these to the Czech workshop for the Euro line. Btw @Angel the NS-5xl example on the picture used to be mine.

    I don't believe these came in a white finish and from looking at the photos it doesn't appear to be a factory quality finish, so I'd assume this was re-done at some point. Do you know what the original colour was and why it might have been repainted?
  12. Jamieboy started following D’Addario Rounds
  13. Jamieboy
    DR Sunbeams are a pretty smooth nickel roundwound. Think I recall daddario NYXL feeling slightly smoother than the normal XL strings too (and preferred them in other ways as well).

    I note that the logos that should be on the headstock are missing, Has this bass been refinished?

    Sounds to me like a mate of yours having a laugh....
  26. Supernaut
    Definitely US. This came from a parts bass made by a Sadowsky employee. No real markings on it to identify as such. The pickups were scrubbed out and headstock left blank for fear of repercussions. I still have the neck - Brazillian rosewood fingerboard, Graphtech nut, Schaller tuners.
  27. Misdee started following Pete Morgan on Parky 1980
  28. Misdee
    Those RD Artists sound amazing but weigh a ton and are a bit ungainly to play. I remember when they were new in the shops around the time I started playing and they were ridiculously expensive, much more than a Fender or Rickenbacker, none of which I could afford.

    Hi, yes it’s still available.
  32. Schlippy started following Extra comfortable/soft strap
  33. Schlippy
    Yeah the Maruszczyk straps are the mutt's nuts, the PES50 is 5 inches wide and padded, with a suede lining that helps with stability and a ladder connection between the two parts of the strap. I can't really play full scales any more after I shanked my back, but with this wee beastie I'm able to play my jazz again as long as I don't over-do it, same with my P-bass. Only downside is the synthetic "leather" the front of the strap is fitted with (you can score it by _gently_ running a fingernail along the front face. It's sturdy enough but looks kinda bobbins.
  34. Stub Mandrel
    Sone posh plugs have washers you loop the wire round. Plugs with little scews are better (if they are quality ones) because if they can be done up tight enough they cold weld like a crimp... you hear them creak or crack when undoing them.
  35. Stub Mandrel
    You can soft solder to aluminium. You need to abrade off the oxide layer, cover it with light oil (not flux), use a powerful iron and scratch through the thin oxide layer that formed before you got the oil on. It is tricky. I've also got aluminium welding rods (alutite), used with a blowtorch- mechanical abrasion also important.
  36. Stub Mandrel started following Anyone solder wires into mains plugs?
  37. Stub Mandrel
    Funnily enough I just posted an explanation of why crimping is superior to soldering. The same goes for plugs. Done up tight the screw cold welds and unsoldered is more flexible, improving fatigue life.
