Also, meant to say it before, but your singer's quiff is probably the greatest quiff I've ever seen. Total respect, honestly

Get out now. Sometimes having a bit of breathing space away from it all isn't a bad thing. I stuck it out with my last crew long after it stopped being fun and it was a mistake. Eventually, enough sh*t happened to make me put and end to it and, to be honest, I've been delighted with the decision. I'm a lot happier at the moment just writing and recording at home and getting my chops back in order than I was throughout the last year of the band - to the extent that I've no real desire to seek out another band at the moment. Once it stops being fun, get out of there. Opportunity will present itself in the future if you choose to look for it.

There's something quite hypnotic about that video. Good show!

I quite like the D shape on my LX, took a while to get used to but it does have a certain charm once you get to know it.

Bongos can be in tune?

Very nice indeed, great fretboard

Is there an echo in here?

Looks like a fancy assed Hamer impact, no? I've never played a Hamer bass but a friend of mine had one of their guitars back in the 90's, very nice it was too.

Sorry to see you got another duffer, Gareth. As already said, I'd take the refund and chill out for a while, based on what I've just read. Perhaps new EBMM aren't quite what they used to be. There are plenty of great basses out there for that kind of money but, instead of going custom, perhaps you'd be better off finding one which meets the standard you're looking for and buy off the shelf. Maybe a day out in one of the better bass shops over there? Anyway, hope you find the right bass.

Lakland 55-02 has 19mm spacing, like you I can't really get on with narrow spacing. Give the Lakland a shot.

If your 06 is the same as my 04 then it's an ovangkol neck with a wenge fretboard. The Warwick serial dater should give you the full spec of the bass.

Great bass. Now don't go selling it again!

I remember that place. They had some great 2nd hand stuff, always wondered what happened with them.

[quote name='silddx' timestamp='1317079733' post='1386589'] There is no mount on the JAN, just carefully remove the old JAN with a Stanley knife blade as a lever, and sand off any glue residue, then a couple of small drops of superglue on the new one and it should fit perfectly. I have done this a couple of times. There's a guide on the warwick site somewhere on how to fit a new JAN. [/quote] This. I replaced a broken JANII with a JANIII, very easy, 5 minute job if you're taking your time.

I don't honestly care once it sounds good to start off with. I've got poly, nitro, oil and wax finished instruments and, to be honest, I don't think any one is "better" than the other, tonally or aesthetically.

Have you lowered the baseplate of the bridge as well as the saddles?

You just can't beat the look of a white Tele

Planet waves make a 3" wide padded strap which should take care of the neck dive and the shoulder pain.

Nice! What model is it?

[quote]has a bit more body mass for added sustain[/quote] Can they actually prove that?

Well done to Ped and the team, I think the new features are a big step forward. Thank you very much for all your hard work.

I like that his bass has SLAP written on it, in case he forgets. It's what I'd like to do to his face, too.

Yeah, curry night would get me through the door quicker than the false praise for the other two
