  1. On my latest bass, well it's not mine, yet, there's a set of flats with only inner core of strings touching the bridge saddle. The strings are over 30 years old and not sure if the strings meant to be like that or they have been worn out.
  2. I started individually tweaking frequencies going by my ear not numbers. It sounds good to me but...
  3. Cheers. Although I don't understand the master eq curve, I'll work it out tomorrow.
  4. Nice jazzy and funky sound. I'm jealous of mastering and mixing. My songs tend to come out mushy.
  5. Bought switch squirty cleaner from Maplin and pots work great. Very smooth, no cracking sound. This bass needs no mods. It's fine as it is slightly battered with slightly cracked headstock. Oh hang on...doesn't it make it relic?
  6. Poundland
  7. Return all day long. Remember you pay hard earn money
  8. I might have a crack at it this month
  9. I've had R66LD on one of my jazz basses. They still sound pretty bright and growly
  10. I've only done two videos. I mic'd up the amp with sm 57 and recorded the sound via interface in Ableton software. I then mixed the bass sound with the backing guitar track and did all the compression and mastering. I placed a digital camera in front of me to record the motion and sound. When I imported the bass sound and video into movie media maker I muted the sound on video and synced the two together.
  11. I was toying with the idea of building a Steve Harris royal blue sparkle p bass. Luckily I found one here and since then I saw another one for sale. It's worth saving up if you're a fan. The bass is awesome and beefy.
  12. The bass sounds amazing. Don't know if it's the flat wounds strings or the pick ups. The bass has a gentle growl and deed sound.
  13. I've used a squirty aur can I had and it did the job well. Neck volume pot still not 100 %.
  14. Finish off the two guitar rebuilds. Get a music room and a cheeky drum kit. Plus the usual around the house gardening projects.
  15. Some people swear that drink taste better out of can than bottle and triangle cut sandwiches taste better than rectangular cut. I prefer drinking bottled beer out of a bottle not a glass. Sure it tastes the same.
  16. I went to see a band last night. Good tight three piece cover band. They missed the midnight countdown by 15 seconds.
  17. Happy New Year
  18. Voted. Looks like there is a winner. My toddler loves this version
  19. I'd rather keep it for a project than selling it.
  20. Cheers guys. You've been very helpful. My father in law is happy for me to have it but if this is worth a few hundred quid I want to be honest with him.
  21. Wires are all attached.
  22. It's a tough one. Only the front pups volume button works when it pleases. The other two don't but I reckon with new electronics and either Seymour Duncan or aquilar pick ups with a high mass Fender bridge it will be a bad as.s bass
  23. Yeah looks like it had a full size cover. It was bought 30 years ago so the wood is nicely dried out.
  24. @HazBeen @MB1 @Bassassin Any other suggestions? I've attached pics of neck pocket and potentiometers. The wires are very thin.
  25. Removed the neck and nothing exciting. Nothing exciting at back of electronics or pick ups.
