  1. Looks good so far. I love the neck dots Also, please tell more about your Vox Standard fretless. I've been wondering about doing something similar for a bit.
  2. [quote name='sebowden' timestamp='1440802576' post='2854073'] Anything left? [/quote] Unlikely, given it's nearly two years later.
  3. [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1440841706' post='2854237'] wonder if you could do some kind of T40 market place where the price varies according to the weight.... [/quote] Inversely
  4. [quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1440800784' post='2854062'] Very true - but I sooo badly want a Riverhead Unicorn to go alongside my Hohner B2A & Cort P/J. No way on earth to justify four... ....is there? J. [/quote] I forgot the Hondo Alien... so yes
  5. [quote name='ezbass' timestamp='1440700466' post='2853150'] Obviously make sure that your new neck has the same number of frets as the current one. Seems obvious, but easily overlooked. [/quote] This!
  6. I may also decide to sell my T-40... I don't get on with the neck, and replacing it would be barbarous
  7. Bach cello pieces. Try Suite no.3 in Cmaj. I guess there is a chance of offending purists.
  8. [quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1440758923' post='2853544'] Very tempted - these don't come up very often. But I can't exactly justify owning [i]three[/i] 80s headlesses... Jon. [/quote] They don't take up much space... (Hohner B2A, Westone Rail, Kramer The Duke here.)
  9. Looks nice, doesn't it? I have the impression black ones are relatively rare. Sadly, the £125 shipping cost is not my perfect number...
  10. [quote name='CamdenRob' timestamp='1440772429' post='2853753'] blimey... not really worth it then. [/quote] Makes the Thomann shipping look proper cheap, doesn't it?
  11. [quote name='Donnyboy' timestamp='1440765918' post='2853655'] I've now received my Kahuna Ukulele bass , and my initial thoughts are that there's nothing much wrong with it as far as I can see/hear , but then I've never had a Uke bass before! [/quote] I wondered who got to that before me Hope it's a good'un!
  12. This is the sort of thing I was getting at here: http://basschat.co.uk/topic/268462-a-modders-database-feeler/page__pid__2853386#entry2853386 Neck radius is the fingerboard curvature, I am sure. I've seen profiles online, but they aren't necessarily useful to the inexperienced player.
  13. [quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1440743590' post='2853386'] Great idea. Hohner B bass has a set neck... [/quote] Thanks My B Bass B doesn't... possibly I am not aware of the Hohner range.
  14. [quote name='howdenspur' timestamp='1440755311' post='2853497'] I recall someone in the BC community (can't remember who) saying something like "if you're going to play in a worship group, do it for spiritual reasons rather than musical ones, otherwise you'll be conflicted". Having said that, I'm with the OP on this. "Community" also means asking " would it be OK if...?" or "do you think it would work if...?". Not just turning up! [/quote] Indeed.
  15. Skint... Good luck with your sale
  16. Delta Five, IIRC.
  17. [quote name='LITTLEWING' timestamp='1440101222' post='2848384'] Anyone near Poole, this guy is a legend. [url="https://www.facebook.com/john.j.benton?fref=ts"]https://www.facebook....benton?fref=ts[/url] [/quote] Good to know. Thanks.
  18. I've gone the wood route a couple of times. Make sure you let it dry [u]thoroughly[/u] before re-drilling
  19. [quote name='landwomble' timestamp='1433920303' post='2795001'] I've tried an E Bow on a bass and it didn't have enough power to work so I do think you'd need to turn up the amplification. [/quote] When I knew where it was, I had a bass-eBow. That was useless on one setting but worked fine on the other.
  20. A Stanley blade definitely won't do it, and you risk both your own fingers and the finish of the bass..
  21. [quote name='bassgurumonster' timestamp='1440534493' post='2851746'] Cant load them. Plz send email. Cheers [/quote] BC site software has issues with images. Your best bet is to host them somewhere like Photobucket and link to them.
  22. Hmm. I wonder how many Peaveys I should have before this becomes an essential purchase?
  23. Interesting Thanks for clarifications. My next question is how they hang the bodies while painting/staining them. if that spot is directly beneath the hanger, perhaps it's not drying well?
  24. I've an SR300 set up like this. Works fine. I should flog it, I'm not using it.
  25. 'Israelites'. I can't get the pattern of when the rising scale appears. Possibly because certain guitarists and singers don't necessarily know either
