  1. It was made behind the iron curtain, might still be good for metal.
  2. Jag or Mustang? Pickup sizes may be different.
  3. I need one of these old treble side Schallers (stamped Made in West Germany!), and was tempted to bid but I think I'll pass now.
  4. I am genuinely surprised, I have never heard of this before. How does the static electricity build up occur?
  5. The Velcro on the back of the pedals can create static electricity? And that can destroy pedals??
  6. It’s actually impossible to read the comments on that page, the scrolling banner at the top changes height depending on contents and the comments just shift up and down all the time. Website and guitar designers are the same team maybe 🤷‍♂️ (Or maybe it’s my phone)
  7. Personally I really like the headstock. I was referring to the stringing in my earlier comment.
  8. Don’t look at the headstock
  9. If you also meant explain what it does (rather than why it’s there): - the lever is a detuner, you can tune to whatever note lower than E and use it at the flick of the lever. - the round knobs are fine tuners - there are bolts to lock the saddles in place - you can also swap the saddles around to change the string spacing
  10. I thought they all that the Steinberger bridge. Mine has. Love how chunky it is, and the tuning is super stable. i don’t use the detuner much. I am surprised to hear it can snap, it looks very solid.
  11. No winning bid for me either. Same for the Hohner B2A they were also selling.
  12. That’s seriously thick. The plectrum I mean.
  13. Have you had a chance to plug it in now? There is quite a range of basses (and mostly guitars) and colours - that P bass in neon orange looks good!
  14. 19music.com does not exist. 19music.co.uk?
  15. I’ve got it on my watch list, I am keeping an eye out for a travel bass. I am not entirely convinced by the addition of the leg rest - any real need for it?
  16. Ooh, a red one! Only ever saw them in black. That looks very nice.
  17. I had never seen one of these. Very nice.
  18. They all seem to be more pedal or amp style knobs - I guess these pots tend to be used for this kind of devices rather than guitars. For instance: https://uk.farnell.com/w/c/fasteners-mechanical/knobs-accessories/knobs?shaft-type=d-shaft|flatted-shaft
  19. But to answer the OP’s question, I believe these are called Flat Shaft pots or D Shaft pots. Searching on eBay for “D shaft guitar knob” returns a few hits.
  20. Oh, look, a brown pedal!! In addition to being brown, the DOD FX72 is a great flanger.
  21. The DOD bass stereo flanger FX72. Very nice flanger too.
  22. The Schecter Ultracure is fitted with Ernie Ball Hellcat VI Custom Strings (90-75-56-44-34-24) as standard. Maybe your authentic sound is with light gauges
  23. I currently use Rotosound Swing bass 66 strings. I'd like a set of D'Addario NYXL because I don't like tuning, I am rubbish at it, I spend ages getting that needle to stay in the middle. I could do with strings that have 131%greater tuning stability
  24. That. And if the shop do nothing contact Fender UK directly, you never know. I have dealt with Fender UK after the shop that sold me a bass went under and they sent me spares no problem (but it was still under warranty).
  25. And if you want the full history, there is this Wikipedia article: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fender_Jaguar_Bass
