  1. If your string touch something live then there is no route to earth that does not include you
  2. Just put a stripe from under the bridge to the pup cavity
  3. Maybe an ironstone pair however the pole pieces won’t align at the bridge with the strings I’ll try the pup in the hole - maybe I just need to chisel out the lugs a bit
  4. He does state it but I don’t yet know what it actually measures I’ll check - yes same guy
  5. Also @discreet Noted but I have standard jazz bass pickups and I bought an apparently standard jazz bass body - I would struggle to find a commercially available pickup set, wouldn’t I ? As would all other buyers of that body
  6. so DISASTER strikes i took out my geddy lee pickups to check the pole pieces align with my string "strings" and the placed bridge. The rear pickup cavity has been routed for the smaller front pickup. Surely everyone knows that the rear pickup is larger on a jazz bass ? (excepting very early mex basses where the front is the same larger size as the rear, but even that doesn't fit this case) Raised a dispute/return request with the ebay seller. I'm a bit annoyed at ths.
  7. My old stamping ground - welcome
  8. and which is probably made in the same factory ....
  9. I keep the bridge cover on The pickup cover gets in the way and didnt last there , but I do like the look I don’t mind seeing the holes even because it fits with my Relic fetish
  10. Maybe he is in a coma and thus unable to annoy
  11. You can buy two kodak 9vs from pounshop for £1, just keep a few handy and remember to unplug
  12. That’s because you’re sick in the head tired of Tort, tired of life
  13. Why not go to the bass bash ? It’s in enderby
  14. I have sone celluloid P Tort to sell but I’m unsure it would fit a non fender
  15. I have great Tort, red, dark brown and mid brown
  16. Sadly I'm sitting this one out this year, despite being local-ish now House needs a lot doing to it to make it habitable and I'm babysitting that weekend.
  17. horrified....it'll sound weedy and look small....
  18. Spalted guitard? Very hard to make an impression on and will take a knock or two well and not even notice it
  19. arent 36" classed as extra long scale ? He'd need to find the actual strings lengths
  20. I've just realised that the bridge doesnt have rear string loading holes and so the whole ferrule thing was pointless. Currently struggling to find time to locate the bridge on the body and drill the holes for it and the neck plate.Need to remember to bring strings in to make sure its all central.
  21. I've used them for years with no issues _ I have also seen Blue - although I have no idea what the difference is.

    BOOKS!

    I’d like the home brew book where are you located ?
  24. manchester guitar tech says exactly that in his guide; further that one should work on a small area at a time. For this reason I found that a sponge is the perfect tool
