  1. Any progress @Owen? I'm thinking of getting back to my Stingray 4 build in the next year or so
  2. I've got two of these, on a P and a J - great bridges – GLWTS
  3. Can anybody tell me if the Delano Hybrid pickup can work successfully with the East Uni-pre preamp? Delano tell me that it will be OK but will have to be wired according to their installation guide – PDF attached – it has a switch to flip between J (passive) and MM (active) but unfortunately electrics are more like voodoo to me, hence the query I have the Uni-Pre installed so switching to their pre-amp isn't really an option Cheers! installation guide_2018_1.pdf
  4. Cracking work there – loving the Trace Elliott in the back of the third pic too 🙂
  5. Thanks for the suggestions everyone Next question is… should I use lead-free solder?
  6. Does anyone have a recommendation for a reasonably priced soldering iron?
  7. Does anyone have any experience with this pickup? https://www.delano.de/hybrid_4/hybrid_4_details.html
  8. Update: Back up for sale as the buyer decided it wasn't the project for him. The buyer reports that the truss rod turns OK and it's now sporting both pickups. - - - - - - - - - - Ibanez Jazz bass from the 1970s for sale – not looking for trades I bought this years ago and have never got around to doing the work needed and I already have a J so this isn't needed – it's not the lightest, but certainly isn't the heaviest either – I'll figure out a way to weigh it if there's genuine interest This is a bit of a project as it needs a bit of fretwork at the headstock end, and possibly a new nut I can't check the truss rod as it needs a stubby key and the ones I have won't go in far enough and I don't want to force it and strip it – the previous buyer reports that the truss rod does turn but doesn't solve the fret problem The action is very low and it plays perfectly up the neck although it buzzes at frets 1–3 on all strings – worst at the first, improving as it gets to the third, then all OK For someone with the skills this will make a nice bass – unfortunately I have neither the skills nor the time, so its has to go 🙁 No case, but could be disassembled and boxed for delivery (UK sale only) Cheers -
  9. I doubt you'll find a genuine one – I looked for ages for a Stingray clone I've been building for the last three years Tone5 do one (from Taiwan) and this place: https://tlcguitargoods.com/en/neck-plate-bass-6-hole-music-man-style-stainless-steel.html Good luck – bass looks great btw
  10. If I don't get any interest soon I will do that, good suggestion, thanks!
