    Stop buggering about man, all you need is another P bass or three

    This one has been around a bit on Bass Chat. I got it a few months back for my bitsa project but have now got a new replacement. There are a few blemishes and marks and a crease caused by the good old royal mail who seemed to think it was a sound move to fold it up during it's journey to me, even though it was well packaged with instructions to not bend etc. Anyway I flattened it out and it's ok. Also a previous owner had carried out a bit of filing, presumably to get some oversized pups fitted. Anyway the pups I fitted were larger than fenders and so it didn't look too bad. A few weeks after I had finished my bass a set of American RI pups came up on here so I got them. When it came to fitting them though the gap around the pickguard cut out just looked a bit ropey and it was spoiling the whole look for me. So that's it, I've not exactly made it seem like a must have item but just don't want anyone thinking they will get a pristine piece of kit. Of course if you like your P bass with the chrome ash trays and covers then it wont show and you will have saved a whole load of dosh. [attachment=76271:069.JPG][attachment=76270:061.JPG][attachment=76269:062.JPG] Hopefully the photos will help explain more clearly than my ramblings. I would like £12.50 inc of postage

    A very trusting, helpful Bass Chatter and a pleasure to deal with.

    Blimey Chris that was a quick change about. Best of luck with the sale. You must stay faithful to the P bass and stop lusting after these strangers

    Think it's highly unlikely that the wood could give way around the tuners.

    Thanks chaps.

    Good to hear a happy ending

    Now that I'm doing more setting up and general tinkering I'm in need of a set of under string radius gauges. Any recommendations as to make and where to buy from. Thanks.

    [quote name='Thurbs' post='1178398' date='Mar 27 2011, 03:50 PM']I had a crap ending to my gig last night... went to the car to bring it to the stage door to find someone had put a brick through the front window. Not happy.[/quote] Unbelievable, what's wrong with some people. Some snotty little scrote keyed my daughters car the other night in a pub car park.

    I finally pay a visit to this section of the forum after three years or so and what do I encounter? A floozy in her underwear. I will not be back! Much

    [quote name='jw54' post='1177620' date='Mar 26 2011, 08:35 PM']Just checked - they're about 1/8" from the string.[/quote] An 1/8th when fretted at the last fret? an 8th" would be about right, (depending on type of pick up) when fretting the very last fret.

    I had to chase them as well. But once I did they turned up the next day. Rotosounds for me.
  16. gary mac
    No worries Dave, I'm in no hurry.

    I've been thinking of swapping out my jazz neck for a P, but mine is a VMJ not CV [attachment=75733:046.jpg]

    Like you say decent parts, but why the precision decal? weird

    I'm amazed at the number of ads telling us to grab a "bargin"

    Nice job, looks very cool. Hope it performs well at the 02 bash.

    [quote name='BurritoBass' post='1174682' date='Mar 24 2011, 02:19 PM']Pleased to hear it's going well & sounding good Gary. [/quote] Thanks Tim, I'm all loved up with it at the moment. You know that phase when you just can't walk past it without pausing for an admiring glance and a little noodle

    Just received one of John's P bass wiring kits. Looks like a classy bit of work and very rapid delivery.

    Lovely bunch of instruments. With the added bonus of the description: Sounds like a Rhino clearing its throat.

    I'm pimping a cheapy Squier Affinity at the moment and having fun. Just can't decide whether to go for some relicing, stripping back to natural or just leave it alone and give it a polish up. Enjoy your project.

    Got mine today but not read it yet. I dont like the smell of it these days, it makes my bad headaches even worse, so I leave it to air for a while in the garage. I think it's the ink they use
