fleabag

Yup, some fun swearing in the fecking mic You have a lot of patience, no doubt because you do astro-photography, but thanks mate, and all others who tried to help. I kinda figured this woulkd end up being a techy job, but was always worth a shot. If i was more tech orientated, might have got further. Back in the cupboard ! Fecking Ashdown eh ?

Why has this now become a copy of the other Covid thread ?

I thought the holes on a P were 17mm, but may be wrong

As long as they fit properly, i guess the only caveat is that 2 of them will possibly need winding in the opposite direction when tuning up. Not a big deal

Ok - fired up the scope again, though i couldnt get the combo and mic seperated enough to stop that funny squaring off on the peaks, even with the mic level on about number 2 or 3 and the combo 2 metres from the mic Took 4 screenshots at various points - just looks like gobbledygook to me

Dammit - i'll try again and look for that permission

Just tried again, and now the graph will not work. I know the mic is working because i shouted some obscenities into it and the meter is working fine, jumping up and down to some choice words, but the graph on the scope is not even registering. Screen shot of me swearing into the mic, which has peaked And screenshot of whats happening on the scope...

They do indeed look smoother . On mine, that scope made my peaks look square on open E and they looked identical with other strings

I dont own an active bass David, so all tests are done with my passive bass.

Oh dear cliff. Washed up on a beach ?

Nothing understated about this bad boy thumping bass from Amy Wino House

Lovely understated fretless

GB74 is an ideal bass - good call

Come to daddy.

Dont forget Cort basses. They're pretty well made and ideal for a first bass, and not a pile of firewood. There's a few Cort models around, and yes , buy 2nd hand and you will get a bargain. Here's a new one... https://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/Cort-Action-Deluxe-AS-Bass-Natural/348K?origin=product-ads&campaign=PLA+Shop+-+GENERIC&adgroup=GENERIC&medium=vertical_search&network=google&merchant_id=1279443&product_id=145460d1&product_country=GB&product_partition_id=295868276830&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI5cmCspv36AIVh63tCh1fZAmiEAQYBCABEgI8JfD_BwE

Actually, when you see what gullible numpties pay for for vintage 60's Jazz basses, then his seems about right

Amp head in the post for me .. no delays for me, that i've seen

Different bass produced same noise. Again, its not so much a fart as a buzzing, both speakers. Hows the graph - any good ?

I'll do bigger zoom , and at the mo, i have only swapped cables, but i have 2nd bass and will try that too

This is zoomed in quite a few clicks, but is it any help or does it need more zoom?

I'll check that - thanks

Dont go walking round New Hampshire in one of these

Cheers Stub - though i may feck it up by pressing the wrong buttons. I dont know what i'm doing with something like that
