    Final fling for a pension fund?

    Jamestown Rag - Garnett Lee

    Latest video on Dave’s World of Fun stuff has one with very sharp fret ends that appear not to have been finished at all after cutting to length. One would hope that’s just a one off glitch in the QC that missed it not a problem with all this edition. Presumably they use the same necks as on other MIM Jazzes? whoops, sorry BNT didn’t notice you’d already flagged this one.

    Bargain of the century, like JPJ I paid loads more than this for mine 2nd hand.

    These are really good, I use mine all the time. GLWTS

    No, I know it went to a good home and that you will make the most of it (I still like the P😁👍🏼)

    Muleskinners Blues - The Fendermen (& Jimmy Rogers but I thought you’d all like the name of the cover version band).

    I found the strings too close together for finger style, although if you look at pics/videos of 60s players they seemed to manage. It depends what you’re used to. As for Hofner strings - yuk.
  12. Grahambythesea
    Seems pointless changing the strings 🥴

    You should try fretless and if your a 5 string player, it might be better to get a 5 fretless. If you can find one the now discontinued Spector Spectorcore is a great choice. Comes as 4 & 5 lined ebony board with either EMG or Bartolini pickup and a Fishman Piezo bridge. Or too expensive and high quality.

    I am using La Bella Deep Talking Flats which are super smooth.

    The Stagg stand arrived today. Heavier than I expected but does the job for my NS NXT. The top arm extends a lot further than this if needed.

    My old man’s a dustman - Lonnie Donnegan

    Fast is a misnomer. Some necks feel more comfortable to ply on than others. I have a couple of “slim” which are great and one chunky which is fine but I did sand a bit of the gloss off of it as it did have a slightly “sticky” feel. It’s now much better and I’m equally comfortable playing that bass as the slimmer ones.

    I hadn’t heard of Warman. Looked at website, no mention of Firebucker pickup. Looked for Black plate - $80 I don’t think so. I did have the idea of covering the plate with gold vinyl but then just took it off.

    I have d’Addario flats on it now. I have used nylon tapes on another bass previously and it may be I will again.
  22. Grahambythesea
    What is the colour, photos vary somewhat?
  23. Grahambythesea
    I’m surprised this hasn’t been sold. Have a bump.
