Find a vinyl pattern you like and smooth it into the existing plate using a credit card or somesuch

Can you use a vinyl on your existing plate?

Well that's made me mess up my screen ....

Alnico think I had one in my bass doc precision and it sounded immense

Out! Flipping heathens coming in here with their "one is enough" nonsense

Higher due to the board radius - I couldn't stop playing it and I really doubt you need to change the pup.

i tried a harley fatboy but it wasnt right for me. Too big, too heavy Welcome sir, you'll find its a bit friendler around here than it is on Talk Bass

Anyone who expects a 50 year old instrument not to have had a fret dress ever is, in my humble opinion, deluded, and after a museum piece rather than an instrument If it is a decent job I'd still buy it, instruments are made to be played

A lost cause....can't find a unicorn, can't educate a guitarist

It's quicker by i4 When I went there it was quite small; guy behind counter was really quite rude

[quote name='Musicman20' timestamp='1468927077' post='3094337'] Think I might know the answer to this, but how exactly do you get one home?? I would love a new Musicman guitar as they are the same price in US dollars as they are £, but I wouldn't want it in the cargo hold. I'm guessing you also end up paying a bomb if they decide to add charges when you bring in it to the UK? [/quote] Take the neck off and stick it and the body in separate suit cases

[quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1468924886' post='3094301'] I think [url="http://www.basscentral.com/"]Bass Central[/url] are in Orlando... [/quote] They are, but a little off the beaten track.

There are decent tabs out there

[quote name='ambient' timestamp='1468777637' post='3093259'] Have you ever considered that you've got Aspergers ? It's something that I have, and can cause anxiety problems, which it sounds like you have. Just get yourself organised, make notes and lists, anything to keep on top of things. Also speak to your bandmates about it, if they know, then they may do something to help. [/quote] Certainly possible, my kid has it

thanks for the heads-up; that area is a nightmare to park in though. Other side of the road from the shell garage

I played one, it was very nice indeed

[quote name='SubsonicSimpleton' timestamp='1468396894' post='3090593'] Heel access doesn't have to be an issue, every instrument I've owned has moved about a bit when subject to big temperature fluctuations, but I've never had to resort to adjusting the truss rod on the gig - if you like a really low action and play lots of gigs with difficult temperature/humidity conditions then it might be a problem, if you like to experiment with different strings regularly then it will be a minor inconvenience that is worth living with if the instrument works well for you. [/quote] Just chisel a bit out of the body if you need to adjust it more than once, mine has this adjustment and its no biggie

[quote name='madshadows' timestamp='1468349801' post='3090376'] Blackstar do this, I have the guitar version which is great [url="https://new.andertons.co.uk/p/FLYBASS/combo-amps/blackstar-fly-bass-mini-bass-guitar-amp"]https://new.andertons.co.uk/p/FLYBASS/combo-amps/blackstar-fly-bass-mini-bass-guitar-amp[/url] John [/quote] I think that's perfect, thank yoy

can anyone recommend one ? Doesn't have to be amazingly loud but quite light would be good - sub £50 please

they have - I also highly recommend UPS and their access point services. Usually a local newsagent
