I have a gotoh 201 installed on a jazz bass and I think the strings are making the springs on the intonations screws rattle. Though I am also not sure if it is the truss rod in the neck. The neck adjusts fine, nothing feels loose to me at all when I make an adjustment, I've literally checked the control plate the pickups, the tuning head and the nut seems cut fine.
When I hit an open E its pretty audible same on the A, also when I fret I can also hear it, it's not completely obvious but I can definitely hear it, it also seems to be coming through my practice amp, I wouldnt have thought anywhere near enough to effect a band situation but it is annoying because I know it is there.
I've tried hitting the back of the neck to see if anything rattles and I couldn't hear anything obvious.
Has anyone else had this problem and can anyone give me an insight as to what to do next -
It could be anything. Mine seems to do it. But I pulled it apart earlier, it's either the truss rod but it still adjusts so I kinda doubt it, but I think it's the springs on the bridge intonation screws. I think they are rattling when the strings are played.

I never had a problem with axes r us and ebay stores, maybe have a look around those?

Check out the 1 spot adaptor for your cabling needs, that would just go straight in your gig bag because it's just a plug with a cable, no brick or anything.

This bridge has come off a bass I've just received, the finish is pretty tarnished and would suit something a bit vintage, it's not a total mess by any means.
There is however, one saddle screw missing from the E saddle, this is obviously a bit of a problem, someone with a bit of savvy should be able to replace this.
Looking for £30 including postage ONO
Will get pics up soon or can send to email you choose, just heading out the door!!

I got this in a trade off of here. The bass was about two weeks old when I got it! So it is as new!! It's now only 6 weeks old. No marks and sounds superb but it surplus to my requirements due to new purchases.
I'm yet to take my own pictures but here is the original thread....

Yeah, the blue one is more like a tubey drive, i set that low for a bit of grind, the next odb3 is set fairly low but with a punch then the next is set higher gain for a more full on overdrive.

Ha set with two different gains!! Made sense at the time!!

My fairly small but effective board. Had so many pedals I'm just sticking to the basics now. -
Traded my little giant for his mag 600, smooth transaction, got it to me quick and packaging was bomb proof!! Superb!!

Seeing as I'm not playing so much anymore, I may as well get rid of a couple of great effects, which to be fair I love but don't have so much need for.
[s]Sansamp VT Bass Deluxe, boxed will have velcro on the bottom, great condition works fine - £180[/s] (SOLD)
[s]Fishman Fission Bass Octaver - does 8th, 4th low, 5th high and low (not at the same time, although 8th, 4th and 5th high you can switch on all at once) has a built in noise gate and overdrive. Boxed also in great condition- £130[/s] (SOLD)
Home made fuzz pedal made by badgerific from here - Putting this back on, I'm more of an over drive and grit man than a full on break your face man! In great condition works fine, battery and psu - £20 (A fair bit cheaper than he sells them!) (ON HOLD)
The link to the pictures of the fuzz are below

I have also tried that, it seems to make a difference, I think my best bet maybe just to put the old bridge back on and see what happens.
