Hey guys/gals I apologise if this has been asked before but with Yamaha fitting nickel nuts to their supper Bb's i was wondering if this really does improve the sound of the open strings? Yamaha claim you can have the fretted sound from them. Thought's? Cheers Steve

Good will to all men, and the occasional woman.

I seem to remember the Bassworld servers being confiscated for some reason! Tell me that's true and not something else my over active imagination has conjured up?

[quote name='ikay' post='1159147' date='Mar 12 2011, 11:46 AM']In a word - yes. And yes, this little beauty of mine ('84 BB2000) plays as well as it looks! Stunning basses[/quote] Drool, Drool wipe chin, Drool

I've got the stadiums on my Jazz and they are great strings and i have just ordered Extra Slinky's for my Bb. I'm loving the stainless tone at the moment. Warm = Dull in my opinion.

Everyday's a school day! Thanks for the info.

[quote name='eude' post='1147381' date='Mar 2 2011, 05:23 PM']You can get the bridges here >> [url="http://www.musicstore.com/en_EN/EUR/Basses/Bridges/Sandberg-Bridge-4-chrome-/art-BAS0004215-000"]http://www.musicstore.com/en_EN/EUR/Basses...-BAS0004215-000[/url] Fairly keenly priced too...

Fantastic looking and sounding bass, well done. But where did you get the Sandberg parts?

Is it because Woman of a certain age dig DD that they are deemed uncool? His name is Rio der der der, d der der der.

REM,

Just a point, earlier you mentioned changing things around on the bridge. Did you put it back where it should be? the saddles need to be right in order for the notes to be in the right place on the neck.
