  1. Amp/Cab manufacturers quit using fuzzy rat fur to cover cabs. Use tolex or tuffcab instead.
  2. Leathergraft: make a bass version of the comfy suede guitar strap. Instead of 2.5 inches make it 3.5 inches wide. Also add some other colours of suede to the range - I'd definitely order ones in cream and daphne blue.
  3. I'm loving my waza air bass headphones - they are the best practice aid I've ever had. There's a new system update available but it seems unneccesarily fiddly to install. Has anyone done this successfully without bricking £300+ worth of kit? https://www.boss.info/uk/support/by_product/waza-air_bass/updates_drivers/c97e9fa0-4cdd-40ca-8c91-f0607a2bbd22/
  4. It won't fit as the pickups and controls aren't in the same location.
  5. No The JMJ comes with 9050s which are long scale — they are designed for 34" scale basses so the wound part of the E string goes around the tuner post on mustangs. They work but are not elegant, and they have snot green silks. It just seems odd that Fender don't supply a 32" medium scale set when D'addario & LaBella sell medium scale stainless steel flats that fit perfectly but cost more than the Fenders.
  6. Fender — make stainless steel .045 – .100 flatwounds like the 9050 set, but sized for a string-thru mustang bass. With Daphne blue or black silks please, and ensure the strings are all nice and smooth like LaBellas or Chromes.
  7. I still wonder about the inspiration for the upper horn. Once it has been pointed out you can't unsee it.

  11. Fender - how about a run of JMJ mustangs in pristine non-roadworn nitro, maybe with some new colour options
  12. Loss of a Loved One - The Residents
  13. Candy and a current bun - Pink Floyd
  14. All bass manufacturers: Roll the damn fingerboard edges - It makes any bass (or geetar) feel much better to play; its not difficult to do and doesn't take long, but often (i.e. on all maple necks) should be done before the finish is applied.
  15. Eleanor Rigsby - Beatles
  16. Shortnin' Bread - The Residents
  17. its not even a bass, its a four string left handed strat, and the intonation would be all over the place.
  18. I upgraded from an H1 to a H2n a few years ago and I'm constantly amazed by the quality of the recordings
  19. Fender - send me free mustangs Gibson - send me free thunderbirds Ashdown - send me free amps D'addario - send me free chromes
