  1. The output of the push-pull switches should simply be wired as above. May I advise you to use push-push pots instead, they are way more convenient to use. 😉
  2. Rob, the Godin definitely sounds like a fretless... You are right when saying the Takamine TB10 or (D)B10 sounds close to a double bass. I had both, but didn't like that really really really thick neck (even if I have big hands with piano player fingers), that said mine were set up with a low action and Thomastik JF strings, which are (very) light tension and helped the ease of play. That said, if you could find a Leduc U-Basse with its patented free floating top, I think it would tick all your boxes, especially the first generation with a bolt-on neck and twin Fishman piezo, but you have to like the headless design. These basses do have the acoustic sound you're after (with regular gauge flatwound strings) and very little mwah inherent to the construction. Use a translator as it's in French: http://ubass.free.fr/index.php?page=22
  3. Looks ace! 😍
  4. Okay, I fully understand your point of view, here is my latest addition to the herd: Waiting for your comment...
  5. And stop desperately seeking money, he better seek Susan. 😉🤔😂
  6. Macassar ebony, then. 😉
  7. Side A for me as well.
  8. The shīt sandwich worked very well, it's been accepted and, especially, assessed as my best mate, who is also a manager, is aware of all these inherent problems in the band. And what I said was pure honesty, so the compliments were real and sincere, which certainly explained why it worked. That said, I've been a medical advisor for years and know how to manage people's susceptibility, but only up to a point where it becomes useless, so sometimes (most of the time for me as I'm a bit fed up by the stupid politically correct period we're living) it's good to say the plain truth even if it hurts.
  9. I liked your idea, so as it was asked, the shīt sandwich has been delivered, just waiting for its taste in return.
  10. Luckily for me, you don't ship and I'm not in the U.K. GLWYS.
  11. Wait to see the price of the whole set... 😉
  12. It was indeed a cheap Korean brand that came out in the mid 80's, and lasted through the 90's. Nothing to fancy there, cheap instruments from the bad Korean period. Tried a few at the Musikmesse in Frankfurt back then, but none of them were great.
  13. If you go back in time, he used to play, but for an unknown reason, he stopped, preferring to let others do this job.
  14. Nope, the guy, Gregor Fris, is small, that's why he's always filmed from a high angle on his videos.😉
  15. Calling @benh, @Silky999, @Jabba_the_gut in the U.K. or others like @Andyjr1515, if he accepts it. Or @RonC and @Basvarken in The Netherlands.
  16. I guess you're talking about the tilting of the neck, which is impossible to correct on a set neck without ungluing it, correcting the tilting and then gluing it back, so a lot of work. And with a neck through it is close to a nightmare... The only thing you can do is lower the saddles or recess the bridge for lower action.
  17. Especially the "high end" version. I'm just checking for a price...
  18. https://www.premierguitar.com/news/ns-design-unveils-new-carbon-fiber-fin-guitar-and-bass $9500 USD, no thanks.
  19. I also have enquired for the price... 🤦🏻🤔🤪
  20. And the link to it: https://thinkns.com/instrument/ns-design-fin-electric-bass-guitar/
  21. Truly beautiful, Ben, congratulations! 😍
  22. And I quite like the overall design, just waiting for the price...
  23. If steampunk was like that, I'd be a fan...
  24. For those hating Faecesbook, like me.
  25. Maybe the 40 years old Sanox Logabass with its bridge designed, just like the whole bass, by Christophe Leduc...
