Just a couple of decisions still to be made. The pups, upon the suggestion of Allighat0r, may go green. We'll have a look with them natural and make a decision. This has a nice look though (note they couldn't get the ripples gong the same way as the neck either): [url="http://s1341.photobucket.com/user/4Strings1/media/Ruach%20Utility%20Bass/BlueandMaple_zpsd7bfd92a-1.jpg.html"][/url] [/quote] Aesthetically pleasing to have the neck colour continue into the body area, tying the two together. Neither green or natural would be functinally different either so no utility issues there.

Steve and I just completed a postal trade, all went without a hitch and everything arrived as promised. All good new here too! Recommended bc'er. Thanks matey!

They sound a bit like maroon 5 but with a better singer, same cheesy pop songs and sound but superb musicianship! I'd expect my wife to really like it and I can then secretly enjoy the playing while she hums along to the catchy tune

ah...this sort of thing then

they look rather smart don't they!

This the one? [url="http://www.slab66.com/"]http://www.slab66.com/[/url] looks very nice!...lots of nice pics but no description as to what you actually do and no help on ordering/commissioning a bass from you? navigation feels a bit strange too, a bit like reading an e-book rather than 'click the link to go to the bit you want'

welcome Adam to our happy (ish) house of mayhem

Sean bought one of my patch cables recently, excellent comms, great to deal with, paid when he said he would. Cheers buddy, recommended!

are you near anyone else with a similar p-bass from on here? coffee, chat, a-b the basses??

I recently switched the original wiring loom on my MIM 50's P for a kiogon one (CTS pots, switchcraft jack and sprague capacitor on the tone pot) and the difference is amazing! The pots now go from 0-11 referencing every number inbetween and the cap has made a big difference to the tone when full up and completely off, there's more punch/oomph available on all settings! A huge difference for such a simple operation!

it does rather precllude the 'muted tuning' option though doesn't it?

despite my dislike of green basses that's looking really smart, it's a good shade of green, not too bright and garish, subtle and possible even classy!
