  1. Indeed @Count Bassy, but then we enter the antenna domain...
  2. As @tauzero added, put all the chances on your side. 😉 That said, only a full shielding with cavities star grounded really resolves these issues...
  3. As new Sterling by Music Man Ray 4 Pueblo Pink Satin HIGHLY UPGRADED (+400 Euros), please read the description below carefully. This bass now sounds like a pre Ernie Ball Stingray (I own a 1979 original Stingray model and have played a lot of them), just a bit more precise. NO TRADES! NON NEGOTIABLE PRICE! Asking price including fully insured shipping with tracking number, to your home, in these European countries (ask for other countries): Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France (excluding DOM -TOM), Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Monaco, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and United Kingdom: €600 EUR (£500 GBP is an approximation and I will only accept payment in Euros)!!! Shipping to the UK is of course possible and included in my asking price, but with additional customs charges (VAT + other taxes + courier costs), as the UK is now outside the EU. Here are the specifications : Body: jabon Neck: hard maple Fingerboard: jatoba (9.5" radius) Positions: 21 medium frets absolutely unmarked Headstock: 3+1 Tuners: Sterling by Music Man opened gear Pickup: brand new original American Music Man Stingray AlNiCo from 2019 Preamp: brand new clone of the original pre Ernie Ball 2EQ with LM4250CN chipset and tantalum capacitors Controls : volume, treble and bass on a brand new Music Man control plate with brand new original Music Man knobs Bridge: Sterling by Music Man fixed bridge Strings spacing at bridge: 20 mm Nut: plastic Strings spacing at nut: 10 mm (width 38 mm aka SLO neck) Scale: 34 inches Hardware colour: chrome Truss rod: one, single action, 100% functional Finish: Pueblo Pink Country of origin: Indonesia Serial number: B201343 Year: n.a. Weight: 4.250 kilos Action : from 1.5 mm under the G string to 2 mm under the E string at 12th position (can even go way lower, but was perfect for me) Will be delivered in a brand new Sterling By Music Man gig bag. Non-smoking environment as usual. The bass has been fully set up and shielded (dead silent) professionally and will come with some new Dunlop Dual Design Straplok fitted on the bass (the original ones will come with the bass). It has a new battery and has received a new set of nickel plated Ernie Ball Hybrid Slinky 2833 strings (45-65-85-105), which really serve this bass. The pickguard is a brand new Music Man Classic 4 Aged Pearl (the white original will be delivered). What you see is what you get! Look carefully at the photos taken from different angles and lights to see the real condition, which is as new. Here is the link to 23 photos in high definition: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1HOHpU81PaL76DPWyUjer394XGy0sU89b?usp=drive_link Due to severe back problems (67% officially disabled because of it) plus left and right shoulders injury (it's really painful to reach the tuners), I'm selling all the basses I'm not using like this one as well as some stuff I don't use. I've also considerably lowered the price for a quick sale. Don't hesitate to ask for more, but, please, before asking read my ad first as the answer is certainly already in it!
  4. I would even recommend to ground all the 3 pots casings by soldering a wire going from one pot to the next one then to the next one and to the free eyelet on the output jack, so the grounding will be way better and not relying on the screws connectivity only.
  5. And here I am in my new fretless player suit, way better, no?

  7. It's now harder for me to have a ponytail, but I've been obliged to burn my suede waistcoat alongside my double denim and to repent on my knees once.
  8. Looks like the bridge itself is not grounded anymore. That's the small copper flat "wire" coming from under the bridge and going in the bridge pickup cavity where it should soldered to the grounding plate.
  9. @eieric, the seller says it's from the 90's to early 2000's...
  10. Does this really fast treated photo help @Bassassin ?
  11. By the way, is there a law proposal to ban or control VPN traffic in the U.K.?
  12. I ended up appreciating Dua Lipa thanks to this cover of herself and proving she was making music.
  13. Oops, crossed messages.
  14. Calling @Bill Fitzmaurice !
  15. Here I go, more seriously and in the right order. Bass: Lemmy, Mick Karn, Pino Palladino, Alain Caron, James Jamerson. Guitar: Bo Diddley, Jimi Hendrix, Eddie Van Halen, Wes Montgomery, David Torn.
  16. Don't push the enter button so nervously @bassmansmith...
  17. Me, myself and I.
  18. I would have agreed 30 or 40 years ago, Chris...
  19. Why am I even bothering? I don't even live in the U.K. Ah yes, I like this community.
  20. Just ask those idiots at Ofcom how will they control something impossible to control? Politicians are such idiots totally disconnected from reality that they think they can control everything when they are themselves the first to break the rules. This law will be repealed on the same day of its application due to impossibility of application. Delirious!
  21. Yes, but does the universe deserve balance? 😉
  22. Blimey, Russ, I also have 7 sixers, now I need to buy another one!
