line 6 floor pod plus ? pretty much bang on £150 from dolphin, dv247 etc i've used the line 6 xt on guitar and it's much more than you'd need and sounds good.

that geddy lee's a beaut.

kevin shields was at a gig i played a year or two back - the whole place was 'look...it's kev shields'...but i just about managed to keep my cool... until i saw him nodding his head to one of our noise breakdowns...then i lost if for a bit. i wouldn't have dared to speak to him.

[quote name='7string' post='591844' date='Sep 7 2009, 01:22 AM']6mm is a 1/4", so I'd say that's fine. The E string on the neck pickup has to be lower because the polepiece can suck the string downwards and create some weird sounds. If you hear anything funny then take the pickup down a little bit more.[/quote] thanks - glad to know it's not too far beyong normal. when i first got my musicman sabre the neck pickup was [i]very[/i] close to the strings...it gave all kinds of weird overtones. but then those pickups are big !

i'd say 6mm E-side and 2mm G-side. allowing for my atrocious eyesight. seems mad to me.

i've had a tinker with the neck pickup on my jazz bass, and the only way i can seem to stop the e-string from being much louder that the other strings is to really angle the pickup. is this normal ? the rake of the pickup is a lot more than i've seen on pictures of other jazz basses. /ponders/

fugly.

/shakes fist at sky/ curses !!! well done lemmywinks. first dibs if you sell it ? i'd love an original fortress - beautiful basses.
