    Think he was in a trebly phase - he seems to go through them from time to time before going back to "fat p bass" as now Listen to New Year's Day in "under a blood red sky" - totally different If I recall the snowy vid for New Year's Day correctly he played the same green jazz in it, filmed in Canada I believe

    for my tastes, its a bit "out there". Maybe I'm just too conventional....

    Isnt there a "questions" tab ? I think the classifieds are actually an improvement.

    [quote name='iiipopes' timestamp='1353337226' post='1873763'] High C does not necessarily have higher tension. It may feel that way because of the lesser diameter feeling more pointed on the fingertip. Some folks, not liking low B, but wanting the low range, tune the lowest string to C so it is C-E-A-D-G instead of B-E-A-D-G. Even I experimented with that for awhile before going to a size larger B string and tuning conventionally. [/quote] ProseBass, who made my high C five string, specifically told me that it was so. I was asking him about changing it over to a Low B.

    Pleasure to meet you, walman "Peer-reviewed by another basschatter" type bump
  6. Geek99
    bear in mind that a high C has higher string tension so you'll likely need to tweak the neck relief, and you'll probably need a new nut.

  8. Geek99

    [quote name='Hobbayne' timestamp='1352893432' post='1868861'] I dont understand what the problem is with this song. We are entertainers. We are there to entertain people, and if thats what they want, thats what we give them. If we only played songs [u]we [/u]like, it,ll be a very short set!! [/quote] this...

    Just counted the hours and I can bump this without fear Does no one want a really nice, shiny, mint US p bass at a good price?

    All on list (ie no one right now, but maybe people will join), I have an arrangement with Bluejay to hand over book in early Dec when I am in London.I'll PM whoever comes along when I'm done although I'm a fast reader so it shouldnt be too long.
  18. Geek99
    No, I believe the peson who has finished PMs the next person in line to tell them its ready. At least thats the way I understand it to work.

    I'm bumping at almost exactly 36 hours as I want to sell this item, and I had stuff to do afterwards.
  20. Geek99
    9:09 am today would be 24 hours, so I think I'm only off by half an hour or so from 36 hours aren't I ? I'm busy helping my disabled partner now (36 minutes later on from my post) which is safely in the "36 hour plus" zone
  21. Geek99
    Bump
  22. Geek99
    pity your child wasnt born two years ago - I have the perfect thing for sale right now.
  23. Geek99
    I'm pretty sure this one is in the Bass Tab "white pages"

    I have the 93 CIJ 62 reissue jazz and its just beautiful. I would agree that the pickups were a bit weak, and VERY noisy even after "star earth" wiring and copper foil and taking resistance down to 0.008 ohms between pickup and socket earth. I changed mine for split coil HBs made by matte_black on this forum and its now perfect. I havent had any issues with tuners or bridge, frets are a bit worn but its seen use [shrug]

    I believe one of those techniques is called "appoyonado' although perhaps someone would correct my spelling. I'm not usually wild about relicing, but that is nice.
