I love this colour I had planned to build one from warmoth but it's still really exensive. Roughly how much would o e of those jazzes go for may I ask. I über skint at the mo but still hold a secret plan to build one over a few years using Xmas and bday money as I'm assuming it's still gonna be cheaper than a real one!

that's good to know, well i'm still alive and the shielding has really helped. So just to check it's ok that I wired the earth plate thing to the pot?

why not drop in and say hi!

pssh, more importantly I'm playing with my ozzy tribute band at the reckless engineer near temple meads on sat 21st!

nice one malcom it was a pleasure to deal with you and I hope I can again.

iPhone foible, I don't seem to be able to edit posts on the Iphone so excuse me replying to my own post! I just wanted to add that I shielded the bass with adhesive copper as well and the buzz has gone as much as it ever does in my house, so it worked but am I going to fry?

I recently removed the emgs from my blue 62ri jazz and paid a well known local store to wire in the new electronics which I supplied, the pots,pups and brass earth jobbies that go under the pups. As it's a 60s model it has the visible strip on the front.this was a job beyond my technical ablitues so I paid to get it done among other work. On getting it home it really buzzed but in my house most basses do but this was really bad. I unscrewed the pups to look at shielding it and found the bridge brass doodah wasn't connected to anything!!!! So I soldered it to one of the pots is this right? Bit gutted really I paid and he did half a job. Specially as the guy plays a 60s jazz hmself figured he'd know how to wire one! I wired to the neck pup vol pot chassis which was where the neck pup earth brass doodah was wired to is this ok?

it's not just me then!
