    I've got nothing to add here other than what a great thread! 👌

    Glad you got the refund! I would try the same thing regarding repairs although I'd go for super strong wood epoxy resin to bond it all together (and a couple of screws if there's room!) Good luck!

    Wow, thanks Ped! I will most certainly take you up on that very kind offer!

    Well, after hearing your sound clips Ped, an SB-1 has never been far from my mind. I have done a lot of window shopping for one but alas, finances are too tight just now. However, a recent purchase of a cheap yet surprisingly very decent SX P bass has led to me ordering a SB-1 pickup direct from G&l. A bit pricey with shipping and what-not but to hell with it, got to try one! I have a KiOgan loom and a set of TI flats already here in my bits drawer (off a previous bitsa) waiting for them to arrive. Interested to see how the DIY version turns out! 🤘 Hopefully I'll sleep better now 😄

    You could try a Dimarzio Model P. They have 4 wires for series/parallel switching. Parallel giving you effectively a single coil but with no hum.

    Phwooaaar!!! 💪

    Why choose? Play both!

    I was looking at that exact one! I would have put in a bid myself but I'd just accidentally bought an SX 62 Pbass I didn't know I needed about an hour before! What're we like eh? 😄

    I got one from Northwest Guitars that's really nice. £15

    Just wondering what the tension of Elixirs feel like. Can you compare them to any other brand so I can get a bit more of an idea? Cheers.

    I hope the Ibanez Mezzo does well. It might convince other companies to offer some lower price 32s.

    My favourite Glasto memories are all the nice surprises I've happened upon on the Jazz, Avalon and Park stages anyway.

    Lovely lovely bass. Silly money though. I could have bought one like that 20 odd years ago off a friend for £600. Like the young fool that I was, I passed and bought a dog of a Rickenbacker instead. 🤦‍♂️

    Sold

    I'm sure Scott will be popping round for a coffee or twelve 😄

    Well, nearly bought a Gypsy Rose medium scale P but it was in the states so the shipping and import duty made it too expensive for a 'look see'. Instead, I've just bought one of these in burst to see how I get on with medium scale. I don't actually have a bass guitar at present, just my upright, so I'm expecting some fun to be had anyway! Impending NBD thread sometime this week... https://retrovibe.co.uk/product/retrovibe-les-paul-junior-lpj-bass-32-medium-scale/

    I recently imported an Allparts maple P neck from the states off a guy who has a good rep on talkbass. He does a full fret dress including the nut, rolls the fingerboard edges and gives them an oil finish. In the hand it feels lush. Thing is I've accidentally just bought a new bass so I need some funds back from this neck to go towards it. It's as it came to me, undrilled. I paid £260 for it including import charges. Will post to you for £190 This is the guy.. (my neck is the P version of course - 1 5/8" at the nut) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/All-parts-Maple-Neck-for-vintage-Fender-Jazz-Precision-Bass-JMO-oil-Finished-/133012759583 I'm not at home yet but will post pics of the actual neck later. Cheers.

    Vegas rule #1 Step away from the table, cash your chips and walk.. Quit while you're ahead!

    As the title says.. My bitsa build has changed colour scheme now so just looking to trade my recently acquired (here on BC) cream Dimarzios for the same in black. These are thems... Cheers. Edit.. If anyone wants to buy them for £45 posted then that's cool too. Gone!

    A grand? Better off building a better one of your own for that coin.
