Buy a Mockingbird Then the precision's problems will be minor

Looking great

Saw he had a Bridge he might not be using, so I expressed an interest in it, he offered it to me at a reasonable price on Sunday, I paid on Monday, he shipped on Tuesday it's here today, Wednesday, what more could you want Bassbus is like a drill bit, HSS Honest Sincere Swift Many thanks Graham :-)

[quote name='BassBus' timestamp='1371337685' post='2112813'] I'll see what I can do. It won't be up for sale for a while as I have to find the right piece of wood to fill that hole. New bridge has been ordered. [/quote] Thanks, keep me at the top of the list LOL Here's my opinion on your bass, you've filled the excess control holes, I had that done by Chris Eccleshall on one of my basses, looked great when I picked it up, then the paint settled and it sticks out like a sore thumb The front pick up route, gonna be a P.I.A. to hide So, get a piece of flame or quilted maple, get the front of the body planed down to however thick your maple is, fill the pick up route with maple, add the quilted/flame to the front and spray it tobacco burst. I had one of the original Bass Collection basses, in the 80's, they came with hard cases as standard back then, wish I could remember what I did with mine

Got any better pictures of the Badass, I bought one off t'internet to replace the original one on my 1987 neck thru B.C.Rich ST bass, and when it arrived, it wasn't BLACK, it was, well, Chocolate coloured!

D'Addario EXL-170's in 4 string and 6 string

[quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1370035210' post='2095967'] WOW! I would have travelled to anywhere in the UK for a USA Mockingbird! [/quote] Better still, this was the one Phil Lynott used in the "Do what you want too" video, and had been put in a loft in 1982, I retrieved it in December of 2006 !!!

Kent's a bit far from Cornwall ain't it, I thought I was mad going from Plymouth to Northampton for a free USA BC Rich Mockingbird

American made B.C.Rich Bich 8 string (Strung as a 4) player here, 30.5" scale length, awesome bass

If I were to buy it, Which I'm not, first thing I would do, is remove the signature.Anyone can get a signature on a guitar or bass, the internet is littered with them, unless the artist is dead and worthy, such as John Entwhistle, then I've never seen a signed instrument go for more than what an unsigned one does Just my experience

[font=Calibri]I always wanted this bass, it sold 3 months before I joined the Internet!!!, I would have bought it too[/font] [font=Calibri][/font] [font=Calibri]Was never going to use my 2007 Customshop (which I bought NEW) to do a copy[/font] [font=Calibri][/font] [font=Calibri]I managed to find a MK1 USA Widow bass in Singapore[/font] [font=Calibri]it got damaged after this picture, hence the silver edgeing in the next one[/font] [font=Calibri][/font] [font=Calibri]I didn't get it from Singapore, but a Scottish bloke did, I got it from him after the edgeing was added[/font] [font=Calibri]The one on the Left[/font] [font=Calibri][/font] [font=Calibri]So, off to Chris Eccleshall[/font] [font=Calibri]Minus Paint[/font] [font=Calibri][/font] [font=Calibri]New Headplate[/font] [font=Calibri][/font] [font=Calibri]Handcut 3mm Brass pieces (cut by me and my fingers), then Chromed[/font] [font=Calibri][/font] [font=Calibri]New Bridge, New, never used 1980's Grover Titan Tuners supplied by me[/font] [font=Calibri][/font] [font=Calibri]The inlays and Logo were also sourced by me[/font] [font=Calibri]I know I didn't do a lot of the refurb, but I did cut all the brass[/font]

The trouble with these necks, the fretboard in NOT wood, it is a manmade substance, which feels very grainey against you teeth when you rip one apart The fretboard has no strength, I had a Warlock with this bad bow problem, bought 2 carbon fibre rods and a new truss rod for it, my luthier removed the fretboard (Eventually) and replaced it with a slab of Ebony, using the original truss rod, the neck was then fine

Just sold Pablo an Aguilar OBP-1 pre-amp, he knew what he wanted and what he was prepared to pay, asked all the relevant questions.Decided it was for him, and paid instantly, He tells me it works fine, so good deal

Congrats on the EMG BQC System, just got one myself Just cut one of the wires going to the Jack socket and wire it to a switch

[quote name='Shockwave' timestamp='1348790302' post='1818441'] Didnt know you were in Okehampton, I got married there just last Saturday at the town hall! (The Mrs comes from Broadwoodwidger) Somerset though? Bit of a commute everyday? [/quote] Congrats on the Wedding mate, I remember when you two got engaged!

I didn't need to use that program, I already own the best Precision type bass (for me) It now has EMG's in it
