    Ok. Any hollow body instrument will feed back at this really high volume. Try to start with the master at zero and go up until it starts feeding back, then you'll know you've reached the non return point. It reminds me of a friend having huge feedback issues with his guitar equipped with EMG's and after trying everything at my home and having no feedback at all I decided to go a step further. I came to his home when they were rehearsing and everything became crystal clear: less than one meter away from a full stack Mesa Boogie at stadium concert level in a 20 square meter room with a crazy drummer and a full stack SVT at delirious level too... 🫣😳🤦 No need to say that this friend and his drumming brother are now almost deaf as they continued to play at amazingly high level. The bassist stopped playing with them a few weeks later and can still hear normally today.

    Ok, I think I understood your issue. How loud are you and in what room size are you in when you engage that overdrive with your Jack Casady bass?
  3. Hellzero
    Did you try a simple signal chain? Bass > OD > amp.

    So you have a pedalboard... How many pedals do you have on it and how are they wired?
  5. Hellzero
    And are you going straight to the amp or using the effects loop with your pedal?
  6. Hellzero
    To me it looks like the pedal is the culprit, not the bass, as you seem to generate a feedback loop with your amp. You can try to remove the grounding in your pedal. Did you try another overdrive, except the TC Electronic, of course?

    Stunning would I dare to say!

    Nice way to do the fret dressing under tension, way faster than using the Stewmac bench and all the gauges. Very very very few luthiers do that fret dressing under tension and the only one I know is Leduc who is also doing a differential dressing (the treble side is straighter than the bass side) aka B-Bow when done by the Dobbratz brothers (Le Fay basses). Again congratulations for your excellent work @honza992!

    As @tauzero is mentioning the black battery negative wire goes to the ring of the output jack which is the shortest connector. The blue output wire goes to the tip which is the longest connector. I think you've reverted those two. The ground goes to the sleeve.

    Forget Musikraft it's a lotery and look at Warmoth or Shuker. My Nash PB-63 has a Lollar pickup with a gold anodised pickguard and Gotoh aged hardware including Res-O-Lite tuners: simply put the best P-Bass I've ever owned (and I've owned as many as the years I've been looking for THE P-Bass, so at least 40).

    He recorded a few albums that are as boring as you would imagine. On the other hand, he's making a lot of money (way more than when he was a luggages handler in a London airport) and it's a good thing for him. At least he's earning money thanks to music, which is very difficult. So congratulations for this!

    You seem to have forgotten the Joe Dart models, and the Nate Mendel Sterling by Music Man model too @drTStingray... 😉

    Yes to all questions.

    It's close to a Brazilian rosewood sound wise. You can hear it here, Jack: https://tonybertrand.bandcamp.com/track/i-wish-i-was-swiss

    Stainless steel would be better @JPJ, like my Le Fay.

    Superb work @Andyjr1515 !

    @MrBevans54 Are you sure about that strings spacing as mine had 18 mm with the saddles centered... ? And by looking at your bridge, I doubt you could gain 1 cm of spacing.

    Nordstrand Nordymute Maple 20. This is the 20 mm version for vintage style basses. I'm selling it because I prefer palm muting. NO TRADES! NON NEGOTIABLE PRICE! Asking price in GBP is just an indication as I only accept Euros (25 here) and it DOES NOT include shipping, which will be at cost!!! Shipping to United Kingdom is, of course, possible, but with an extra customs fee (VAT + other taxes + courier fee), because U.K. is now outside EEC. Non-smoking environment as usual. What you see is what you get! Link to the Nordymute website page: https://nordstrandaudio.com/products/nordymute?variant=12119135060037 Don't hesitate to ask for more.

    D'Addario Chrome ECB81 (45 -65 -80 -100) cut for a Fender headstock (4 in line) with 3 turns around the tuners. The strings have been carefully removed from my Nash P-Bass 63 after more than a year of intensive use, so totally broken in, but with plenty of life. I replaced them with DR Strings Legend Flat Wounds that are more flexible and closer to that Motown tone I want now. NO TRADES! NON NEGOTIABLE PRICE!
