Kiwi

The student was from Victoria Uni in Wellington, NZ. That was a superb piece of work. No way I could have identified the playing from the real thing...apart from better consistency, perfect timing and the sheer effortlessness of it.

I just like playing well designed basses that I associate with different songs. When I get bored of one bass, I'll use another...depending on my mood.

Why is the perfect string any more significant than the perfect hair cut?

The only way I can imagine improving on them is by building something that no other manufacturer is willing to offer, including Claber...neo wedge triads!

You said you like the sensation of a delicate and fragrant crust under your fingernails. Now I see this? You've humiliated me and betrayed my trust. I'm going to have a shower.

I've emailed Ben to let him know. I'm not getting anything flagged though and I use Chrome constantly. My history deletes after a day though.

NO BUT WE CAN TYPE LOUDER!!!!!

Good grief Pete!! Thats crazy! Hope you are comfortable and mend up soon.

I like the 2 band, the three band's frequency centres aren't as dialled into the instruments sweet spots.

I'm fairly confident Sterling Ball would be onto this like a rat up a drainpipe...if he knew.

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1352981898' post='1870041'] Fender "luthiers" have no idea how to make something like that...[/quote] What? Are you suggesting they can't do custom? Outrageous.

Headless, graphite bolt on neck, chambered body, semi parametric eq. and custom soapbar pickups.

I've taken up guitar while waiting.

I don't gig on guitar because I'm still learning. However I have the following favourite patches: [list] [*]Joe Satriani patch with Marshall-ish feedbacking distortion, delay, wah and chorus [*]Nile Rodgers patch with clean Fender-ish sound and wah [*]David Gilmour patch with clean Fender-ish sound, flanger and multi tap delay. [*]Andy Summers patch with clearn Fenderish sound, reverb, flanger and slap back delay. [*]The Edge patch with clean vox-ish sound, and multiple stereo ping-pong delays. [/list] Plus a generic rawk overdrive patch for crunchy power chords.

Hmm. Have been thinking about a scratch platefor the jazz...will file away for future reference.

Thanks for the heads up

Only if you want to shatter my illusions. You wouldn't do that would you?!

what was the body made from? Ply or some kind of solid wood?

Les Paul with a graphite neck...wouldn't have happened.

He's got good taste, hasn't he?

Nice Mike Congrats - looking forward to seeing the pics.

yes, have two new nuts. It make for bigger penis. I apply and now use wheel barrow....very embarrassing in department store....my life will never change. Welcome Basvarken...hope standard is lowered appropriately.
