Yes my memory blurs! I'm way North of that. I think I may have donated the identical Gator 4U case to my old Big Band. Still amazing thing. GLWTS 

Crikey, I am sure this used to be mine, bought new from the long gone Electro Music in Doncaster about 20 years ago. It barely got a workout with me as most of the time I only needed a SWR Workingmans 10 Combo. A fantastic amp especially with the two channel switching. Would love to hear it drive my present cab but I need something compact. Good luck with the sale !

There are some nitro rattle cans in the garage and awaiting news of fret finishing on one neck by a certain Mr. Shuker.    Will upload some Photo's including a story of ineptitude regards another neck so others can learn from this Muppets mistakes   Nothing that can't be corrected with a bit of filler and matching headstock colour.

So over three years later and desperate to get the herd fit for playing (or the market)..Might actually start pulling this together  

This became one of four stalled projects

Quality celluloid (or part) pickguards are the missing link... Montreux one I got via Thomann was awful. Good sources anyone (not Spitfire £€¥$).

Photo's soon (by my standards)

Only looked at the mobile site so far but very useable. Sterling work 

First I've seen with those Tuner's on board Very nice

These are standard P/J bass elephant ears. Similar issue to the KK as no ferrules but to be fair just not meaty enough too.
Friend has a Bespoke too but that has proper Upright machines with a big faceplate cut down to the pegbox !!

Poor beast has sat far too long in corner of spare room, and I need to start practicing again !!!
Mine has the (far too lightweight) bass guitar machines (and one has failed) so after suggestions for either later units Jerry used or alternatives? Evil bay seller has some around £50 that look like improvement but looks can be deceiving

Just bought a Bass off Damon. Nice simple deal and met up at location convenient to both. Basschat wins again

Makes mine look like it has been dragged through a pub backwards

Beautiful YOB Bass... hmmm ! Sleep and thinking time

Messaged after deleting post !

No one ?

Has anyone got first hand experience of B.Hefner Jazz Necks ? Or suggest alternative 7.25" Radius neck sources with sensible budget ? Anything from UK/EU ?

Considering ordering two as USPS rate is similar whether one or two.
First: Basic Rosewood over Maple (will pay extra for quarter sawn to add stability and nice grain?) 7.25" Radius, 6230 frets. Second: as first but maybe add binding. Though I like a nice rolled edge
Both for bodies with 9/16" vintage depth neck pockets. Could not bring myself to modify either to 5/8". Too nice !

Raw fretting only a reckon best to give that work to a local Luthier as part of set up. I'll happily do the varnishing once I get a new organic filter mask !!

Cheers

Ooh that's lovely.

Didn't know they'd put a new signature bass out. It's not (ahem) pretty is it !

Bump for offers. Some nice custom Eminence 10" drivers at very least. Can see this getting hacked into a 2x10

While figuring out how I would remove the washer that is trapped I added 1.5mm (3 washers) from a mixed Halfords pack and crossed my fingers, gritted my teeth and used a Ratchet (knowing I risked the Headstock end). Now a lovely action without any crap card shim, 0.3mm relief and just fret 19 is a highspot to sort ... Do not try this at home (with anything expensive especially) !

No love for this Cab? As said, open to offers on Cab or Cab/Head/Rackbag

Bumple !

I have a second hand Audiolab A8000 driving some original Mission 751 (not Freedoms) taking many a source. Pro-jet Debut II Turntable gets a mix of my old Queen and Level 42 vinyl along with growing collection of 70's Funk favourites. There's a NAS drive containing FLAC files, processed by a WDTV Box and a Cambridge Audio DAC. I still, and will buy CD's rather than downloads unless just after the odd track. Eventually I will get a decent streamer that can handle HQ internet radio as well as the FLAC files.
Like the fact my favourite albums get played on vinyl as a special, almost ceremonial treat.

and a brief jaunt to the top

Nope
The Truss Nut came off fine, there's 5mm of thread inside unused so the Rod is not getting pulled through the anchor plate. There is a metal face (already a washer?) already in there and wonder if that is catching on the Rod threads holding it solid and unable to move forward or backward... oh and it is solid !
Hmm !!!

Bump ! Try me with offers

A wonderful package of Yorkshire Made Boutique pickups and loom landed yesterday. Photo's later, work of art

I have a 32 year old Tokai in need of this rescue. Will post pics if successful. If fail I'll post pics of me crying !
