gafbass02 replied to gafbass02's topic in Repairs and Technical
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? -

gafbass02 replied to gafbass02's topic in Basses For Sale
Thanks mate it's truly gutting but I really need to pay off as much of my credit card as I can as quick as I can so I'm just trying to think about that. If I stopped to think about the basses i'm having to part with and the fact that I'll never afford any of them again I reckon I'd just cry! -
I know streamers dont tend to shift on here but i though id try. Well i need to clear my debts so the latest of my basses to bite the dust is my beloved streamer LX its a great nick with some light buckle rash visible in some lights on the back, the bass is a 99 and in great nick with a super low action and no issues, not even the broken tab on the nut lol, its a reeeeally sweet streamer! It wipes the floor with all the other wicks I've owned Inc an 80s stage1 and an fna jazzman along with other lx's. It even has a lovely figuring in the neck, which has a sort of optical depth to it, def the best warwick ive played bar none. The bass is fitted with gold schaller straplocks and a hipshot detuner. EDIT NOT included at £400. Ill accept £4oo collected from Cheltenham or buyer arranged courier

gafbass02 replied to gafbass02's topic in Repairs and Technical
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!

thanks whoever shrunk the pics I have no clue how to do that!

yeah that one only stayed on for a day now it's on my White 75ri and the squier is wearing the White plain one off the 75 which looks awesome.

depressingly im selling my squier VM jazz right now in the ads

Still going guys and gals come on, this is a stellar bargain!

Its a budget jazz bass slightly dinker than the norm with a HUGE fat sound, no issues, super low action and a faintly birdseyed maple neck with rosewood board. It laso has one more fret than a standard jazz so you can play high E on the g string. The only issue is that i made holes in the pickguard to mark up for a pick up cover plate but never fitted it. Other than that its as i got it about a month ago. There is details and pics here, ill try to take my own but this pretty much covers it! [url="http://www.johnnybrook.com/product.aspx?prod=jb133"]http://www.johnnybrook.com/product.aspx?prod=jb133[/url] looking for £50 collected Thats a proper bargain! its fully working, well set up and and a top sound!, heck buy it for parts and keep it, while looking aghast at your more expensive basses wondering 'HOW!?!?, WHY!!?!?....just like i did!
