Totally agree with Bubinga5 - although I have heard some say they affect the sound - they def hinder your technique if you play fingerstyle. If you do fit them, make sure you drill small pilot holes before you screw them in - otherwise you'll probably crack the finish in an UGLY way!

I've tweaked the image - anyone know what it is now?

My old Jack bass was awesome and is now owned by Rick Wakeman's cousin Alan ......bizarre and tenuous claim to fame!!!!!

In years to come - you'll always regret it if you don't get the stingray - particularly as it's a good un! Imagine having a 1960 jazz or a 51 P. If you don't buy the ray, let me know who's selling!!

I bought an Allparts Jazz neck from Peter. The price was good, and it came promptly delivered and well packaged. A pleasure to do business with. Cheers Dude!

Don't forget it's quite flexible with lots of eq options

[font="Century Gothic"]Here's a desk recording of my old MIJ Jazz through a [b]Behriger compressor[/b] and a [b]Marshall Guvnor Plus[/b] - so at least you can hear what one sounds like. Col[/font]

I use a Guvnor Plus - cheap from crack convertors. Does it for me!

Very simple but practical fixes - silly how the blatantly obvious sometimes eludes us!! Cheers guys! Col

Thanks Eltham.....errmmm it was a bit technical! Unfortunately, I do touch the polepieces a lot and the noise is very intrusive. I'd like to keep these pickups in (which are allegedly 77 pups although not the originals) - they sound awesome - is there an easy rewiring fix that would help? Cheers Col

[url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=33334"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=33334[/url] OK -so the refret is done, the trussrod issues are sorted and the cosmetic magic has been applied. When I touch the polepieces, the bass buzzes badly. I've checked the earth continuity and it's all fine, however I also noticed that the two outside polepieces on the bridge pickup also seem to be connected to earth - one at either end of the pickup - and just on the bridge pickup. Anyone got any ideas what's going on here and a possible solution? Cheers in advance, Col

Thanks y'all - not the most subtle track in the world but great fun! Have a good 'un, Col

On it's way....................enjoy!

I've scanned in the manual Adrian - PM me your email address and I'll send it to you. Regards Col

here's our xmas pressie to you all - it's a bit rough around the edges, but it sounded so energetic I thoufgr we'd keep it as it is - enjoy!

I got a bluey green one - £129 from cash converters. It's all standard - gotta say I'm quite happy with the original electrics in mine! I've also got the manual somewhere if you need a copy of it.

I need a jazz neck. You up for selling it the bound and blocked one? Col

Won't go wrong with that!
