    Did it have a pic guard originally?

    Depends on how long a bar lasts, but is something of an edge case not really justifying the outlay and effort of the hardware change Imho

    Maybe a high mass bridge makes a small difference to sustained notes in excess of a bar, but who the f uck ever does that ? And would the audience even notice that 4 milliseconds longer? snake oil.com they’re maybe easier to adjust but that’s pretty much where it ends IMHO

    You must be a bass player; you’re talking sense 🤔

    I put one on a cij jazz from OldGit (late) - no difference whatsoever
  6. Geek99
    The difference between patina and relic is a slim one
  7. Geek99
    Are you out on day-release ? You and @edstraker123 must be mad not to like a bit of patina.

    It’s designed to be played sitting down
  9. Geek99
    One strip under the wire, onto body, then the wire splayed out, then a second copper tape strip to keep it in place should you remove the bridge
  10. Geek99
    I always use sticky copper tape to hold the bridge wire in place

    Body looks wrong too. No patina and doesnt fit the plate. Too much wood around the edges.

    How the f*** did I not spot that ? Dead giveaway to an AliExpress neck 21 frets with no dot on 21, bet it’s an overhang

    It has neck adjustment at the headstock … 99% certain that’s only ever been a jazz thing
  14. Geek99
    Might be a fender body with some other neck
  15. Geek99
    Zero chance

    I think my point was that the basses that I named aren’t really mediocre. They’re solid choices for many people and you can cover a wide range of sounds with three if you spend £1500 on one instrument you may not have enough for a decent spare and it may be a one-trick pony whatever desirable wood is holding the pickups near the strings

    The lady who runs my local one gets £200 each night and tries to do one or two every week plus private engagements as a singer/songwriter

    Wow “rocking horse collision” I’m the only bass player in this village where I go

    If that had blocks I’d be all over that like it was free chocolate 🍫
  20. Geek99
    I’m quite tempted but don’t have the cash for a couple of weeks. Also Kent is comfortably far away from Winterfell
  21. Geek99
    Is the symbol a sticker ? Or is it painted
  22. Geek99
    “Coban” on Amazon, cheap as chips and very good https://amzn.eu/d/6f3z4ia

    Japanese bass?

    You’re in the right place @AdeOw

    Except a four string jazz bass in sunburst …. Rarer than an honest politician

    I think police squad has already wondered about this …^^^^
