police squad

what kind of bridge does it have? BBOT or Badass II

Life imitating art!

😅

superb, I shall be reading this now thank you

I use the right guitars for those that know. I will also be looking at how he acts on stage and his outfits

cool, I'll see what I can do. It's probably a poly finish but so was my Andy Summers Tele and that looks ok

I've won 3 P bass bodies from the Chris Cross sale at Gardiner Holgate. These will be duly filled and sprayed in the metal flake gold and purple. I'll try and relic the sunburst body to get that beaten up P bass too

cool but actually what I've done is keep it original by mending it. Someone else would have changed the pot. They are a strange looking pot, not like a CTS or anything

why? It didnt work and now it does

I repaired a volume pot on my 1964 Hofner last week. Prized off the cover plate and the bits inside the pot looked good, they just weren't touching. A wiggle with some pliers and presto, working again put the base plate back on and instead of rivets, inserted some wire and twisted it, to hold it together

🤣

I was going to repurpose my fretless, new neck and paint job is there fretless on any of the songs in the set list I posted That means I'll need rounds and flats, I've lost count now. 6 basses to every gig?

great, we can have a beer together

When I played on the same bill at Chinnerys, he used, a strat, a 12 string Ric, Gretsch, Explorer and something else I cant remember. This was for a 70 minute set. His rig was in stereo too. 2 x Blackstar heads and two 2x12 cabs. Guitars tuned to E and Eb.

I did the taurus thing in my Police tribute, they're unique but not this time

ah yes, of course

it appears half the set is standard tuning and half is E flat. Which is brilliant because it means I have to have 2 basses in different tunings and maybe a third as a spare!!

It's a shame he didn't play one of these Ive just got it out after 3 years in its case It's amazing

sorry missed this comment. It's defo loud enough thru the 4x10 on it's own

I was going to check with the guitarist about keys etc. But again, thanks for the headsup

Much how I am these days. Thanks for the insight

nice one. I'll shout if i get stuck. Does he use many FX on his sounds?

I know some of them
