    Just a thought - try restringing with lighter strings (like 45-95) to reduce string tension- it will be make it easier to fret notes cleanly. Once you've cracked it, you can go back up to "normal" gauges

    Try looking for finger stretching exercises on the net, and warm up with them It does take time and practice - How much is up to you

    Generic high mass bridge which is a drop in replacement for fender basses. Comes with screws, but they were smaller than the OE screws so I reused the OE ones . £22.50 posted please [IMG]http://i1149.photobucket.com/albums/o600/geek99/316AD5EC-D186-4D4C-9611-37859E14E9F6-438-00000125E32EB5D6_zps2e8b7a1f.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1149.photobucket.com/albums/o600/geek99/291A28C1-90D5-435E-BADE-600B3FFB490D-438-00000125C132A8F9_zpsa16d9081.jpg[/IMG]

    I'd just say "lots of time spent playing along with the metronome", but the clapping idea above sounds interesting.

    I used to have a fanned fret shortscale made by prosebass originally. It was teeny yet sounded immense due to the pickups in it, maybe fanned fret would help you ? Wasn't all that expensive

    These are now surplus to need. Hand made by matte_black on this forum, they can be series or parallel. They have internal shielding, and so have three connectiors of which two go to earth. Currently wired for series and give a nice fat jazz bass sound with no background noise or hum. no visible polepieces so a smooth black face. standard jazz bass sizes, fitted a CIJ 62 reissue perfectly. will load pics tonight. Looking for £30 plus postage at cost for these beauties. Obviously you can collect if you're local.
