Hipshot Licensed Ultralite® Bass Tuning Machine 1/2″ (Black) Screws Included. SOLD! I purchased these brand new a couple of months ago, I fitted them to a project Precision bass I was working on, but a couple of days later I decided to go with a different colour. I also have a complete set of Precision Bass parts listed in "Accessories & Other Musically Related Items For Sale", they include: Black 10-hole Pickguard and Screws, Black Control Knobs, Black String Tree and Screw, Black Jack Input Nut & Washer Only, Black Bridge (similar to Gotoh 201), Black Neck Plate and Screws, and Black Strap Buttons. -
After my first build I really caught the bug, and I think that over the years I might have built around fifteen to twenty, I have four basses at the moment and they are all my own builds, but I always regret moving them on, and this one was no exception.- 5 replies

It's currently strung with Ernie Ball Slinky Cobalts Flatwounds, and sounds great!👍 -

I would imagine it's because the body of the Mustang is considerably shorter than that of a P bass, meaning it doesn't balance so well.
-
I use a wide leather strap which I've used for years
-
Yes that might might a difference because the tuners on a Mustang are full size heavy tuners.
-
I play mainly P basses because they just fit perfectly with the music I play, but I do suffer from back and shoulder problems and have tried a few short scale basses over the years such as Mustangs, but although they were much lighter and easier to play because of their compact size, I just couldn't get on with the neck-dive and felt that I was holding the neck up all the time whilst playing. So my question is: If I stuck with them, would I eventually get used to them?

Fender Rumble 800 Combo (Not The Stage Version) Your Thoughts Please
thebrig replied to thebrig's topic in Amps and Cabs
Judging by the replies so far, I won't be needing an extension cab then? 😉 -
Has anyone got the new Fender Rumble 800 Combo? I purchased one a few months ago but not long after, my band split up so I never got to gig it. It sounds great playing through it at home at low volume, but I'm interested to know what it sounds like in a live situation, so if anyone has one and has gigged it, what are your thoughts? Thanks in advance.
-
Does anyone know if all the SR necks are interchangeable? Cheers.
-
Nice basses, which model is the four string in the right photo?

Thanks for all the advice, I think I will try Mickyk's advice first. I've ordered the Magic Wood Furniture Touch Up Repair Markers Pens from Amazon, and they will also be handy for using on the wooden furniture I have around the home that have accumulated a few scratches over the years.
-
The reason I want to get it fixed the best I can, is because I built the bass only a few months ago, the neck is a brand new Fender roasted maple Jazz neck, plus a brand new Fender body, and the rest of the parts are all brand new high-end parts. I'm gutted to have dinged it so soon! 😟
-
I'll have a go at the steam iron 👍
-
I'm not getting much help guys 😟
-
It's not very deep but you can run your fingernail in it.
-
I left my clip-on tuner on the headstock of my newly built bass when I put it back in the case after a rehearsal last week, and now I have a nasty scratch on it. Any tips for getting rid of it would be very much appreciated.
-
Where on earth do you find TEN applicants? 🤔 We've been looking for a decent vocalist for the past three years, there just don't seem to be any out there around my area. 😟

Just bought an Irish Bouzouki from Gus, and the whole transaction was smooth and pleasant all the way through. Highly recommended BassChatter. Deal with confidence.

Don't know whether this has been done before, but whilst browsing YouTube today, I stumbled across Apache by the Shadows, now I'm old enough to remember it being released in 1960 but I was probably too young to take much notice of the bassline, all I took notice of at the time was Hank's guitar playing, but listening to the song today through headphones really made me appreciate just how good Jet's bassline was, very understated, but works perfectly.
