I think I got the idea wrong - did you mean parallel series on the two pickups, in which case the blend wouldn't work right, or did you just mean on the p? I know the series / parallel well enough, I have it on a few basses.

There is space by the P pickup, the area under the metal control is very narrow, so no room for anything else there. Why would the series / parallel be tricky? There is quite a lot of room there if you are going to put it on the top pots. I must admit I would be a bit wary of extra noise that you will get with series from the jazz pickup, but maybe with your shielding it might help a bit.

Yes, it isn't most obviously I couldn't find it for a bit. At the end of every row is a checkbox. If you click on one of the checkboxes, you get a floating box at the bottom with a 'with <n> <bin icon>' letting you delete all the ones you selected

What not being able to edit posts? What is stopping you edit posts?

Are you sure? I did a free trial (outside the US) and I just had an advert for a free trial in my facebook feed, which when I clicked on 'why am I seeing this advert' said because I was 18+ and primarily located in the united kingdom.

I would fix it myself, although I it would probably be worth contacting the company and seeing what they said, maybe they will provide a discount to not send it back which would cover getting a new socket.

Frankly, unless you are at an audition, if your goal is to impress people on a bass, you have picked the wrong instrument!

Honestly never noticed a correlation between 'busyness' and confidence, I think it is more down to style. You get guys like Geddy Lee, John Entwhistle and Chris Squire who you could class as 'busy', I don't know Geddy Lee and John Entwhistle but can certainly say first hand Chris Squire was not someone obviously lacking confidence! I also don't think it is the bass either, pretty well all basses can make all sounds if you try hard enough. Jamersons P bass had next to no definition but he wasn't a root and fifths sort of guy I think it is just a style and how you want to play. If you want to do a few notes and just beef up the bottom end, fine, do that. If you want to do the solos, fine do that, but I think that reading a reason other than your style into it is probably wrong. In your case, maybe you are playing more notes because of a lack of confidence, only you know that, but you can't assume that is true for all. For me, if bass was about playing root and fifths or just filling in the low end, I don't think I would bother.

Normally I would put most of the replacing electronics as a bit snake oilish from a sound point of view, but in this case, maybe not, certainly not from a piece of mind. I replaced the pot with an alpha pot, bit of a contrast. This was the wiring straight out of the bass when I took it out to see why the tone had stopped working And the alpha pot by comparison Certainly can see where they didn't spend the money! True thats a point. For me a bridge works or it doesn't. I can appreciate the quality of a well made bridge but it is pretty rare I have heard a difference between one bridge and another unless the first was broken. And never on a bass. There is always Newtone

Yes, to remove a picture, taking it from a post does nothing, it is still in your profile, just not shown in the post any more. Under your username, go to "My Attachment", select teh files you want to get rid of with the checkbox at the end, and select 'delete' from the top

Maybe. There isn't any shielding and the electronics are very poor - my tone control stopped working so I went to look and the wire had fallen off. But I never noticed any shielding other than the cover is metal. I haven't replaced any of the hardware, it all seems to do the job fine. If it had lighter machineheads it would probably be good, but there isn't anything functionally wrong with them

My classic wasn't very heavy at all, lighter than most of my other general basses.

The bridge pickup of the TMB35 is actually pretty noisy and not great, but it balances nicely with the other pickup. I gigged it and got good comments.

I had a tidal trial at one point and it was ok, but I have apple music and again for me the integration with the phones / computers / car etc is pretty important to me. Still, at least apple music aren't too far down the paying out chart (over double spotify and 2/3 of tidal).

It does look wal like, with more of a cutaway and not the electronics. Although a wal without the logo on the neck would be a lot cheaper!.

I would imagine they will turn up at some point - probably just haven't got round to it yet, rather than intentional

OK, I missed that, I thought it was an amp for use. Obviously if you kept the old one you could swap it back.

Cant you just get the uk transformer to replace the US transformer for it? they are commonly available - generally not the cheapest things, but a lot less hassle than dragging a transformer around waiting for someone to plug it in the wrong place.

It doesn't really matter at the moment does it, you are trying to work out what you want. If you try stuff it gives you a better idea what you want. If that is the sort of thing you are after you are pretty well going to find it in any shop, so maybe there is something more local to you?

Wunjo bass have quite a lot of 5 strings, with a lot more variation, I would be tempted to wander down to there if I lived that close.

My BAM you can hear the fan pretty early on, although it is not loud. After an hour or so of playing at any sort of volume the fan is fairly noticable (when you stop playing - it doesn't intrude). Gets quite hot after a few hours, obviously there isn't anywhere for the heat to go. The green light is on a lot of the time, I can't recall the green light being off that much when playing. I just have it so the green light is on with the occasional off, and no solid. Although honestly, don't worry about that too much as long as it sounds ok.

You should see 3 posts at the top of the basses for sale forum, regardless of your phone, they cover the rules and advice for sellers etc.
