All of what hiram suggests above. Especially Strap locks, they're are a must!

I like Fender & Squier Precisions and Gibson & Epiphone Reverse Thunderbirds. But I don't like bastardised versions of those classic basses, with their aesthetically displeasing headstocks. Eg. Lulls, G&L's, Sire etc. No matter how good they're cracked up to be. Oh and let's not forget those hideous things with the names Ibanez, Yamaha, Dingwall and Fodera. 🤮

That wire requires a crimp to keep it in the housing, but the conundrum here is knowing the type of crimp that is required and removing the one already in there. The other thing you could do is make the bass passive then it will at least sound a bit more like a Thunderbird should.

Being in the same Colourblindness boat, and having both sets at present, I'd say Ernie Ball's too! The lighter ones are looking like Group IV's (40-60-70-95) and the slightly darker ones Group III's (45-65-80-100) Both sets have Gold ball ends.

I use the Brave browser on both my PC and phone and I wasn't even aware the obviously annoying Privacy tab existed.

Index and middle, when I was young I used to be able to incorporate the ring finger. During the mid 80's a few of us ended up in a fight with some local skinheads and I received a kick which somehow went between my middle and ring finger, luckily neither finger got broken, but damage was done and as a result my ring finger now rests at a slightly off angle towards my pinky. On the up side though, I found I can do a Mr Spock "Live long and prosper" gesture as easy as giving someone the V's.
