  1. I think the tuners on those Squiers are poor quality, so I wouldn’t rule out having to replace them. But yes, first thing is to block the trem, and see how the guitar tunes up after that. I personally think the trem/whammy on a Strat, well set up, is delicious and spine tingling. YMMV etc etc.
  2. Oh, that’s lovely. One might even be able to overlook its broken state, having five strings an’ all..
  3. Yep, in my opinion the Fender Twin is the sound of the electric guitar. Full stop. But, god, they are heavy. I think that might give them that thwack. Fab amp.
  4. I’ll send you a bit of rosewood, or a bit of ebony black Rocklite, if you wish. Your grain filler idea is making me nervous, btw.
  5. Somebody buy it, for God’s sake! It’s a bargain. Otherwise I will think I need to have it to turn it into a fretless, and that won’t end well!
  6. Nice. I’ve got one of these, and I can vouch for them. This is cheap money for a very good bass guitar. How did you get the finish so shiny?
  7. 2VN, what a great album. The bass part on Gaslighting Abbie is my fave on that record.
  8. Needs more than that. Looks like the ashtray is out of alignment with the bottom strap button, so I’m guessing the bridge is off too. Which is probably why it’s in such good condition..
  9. Interesting. I wear hearing aids now (bah) and I find they add compression to everything incoming. So now, I turn the comp in my signal chain off.
  10. I have AKG 240 DF's. They are the high impedance ones from about twenty years ago. They are very good, but quiet, and need a bit of welly from the interface. Recommended.
  11. ...cuz you already indicated you like 10” speakers.
  12. That is very nice! I tell myself I can’t play a Stingray because of the nut width, but pix like that weaken my resolve...
  13. To be sure, my experience of these is limited. A friend had a two pickup fretless back in the eighties, which I think was a Musician. It was a pro instrument for sure, no lightweight.
