Warmoth will do one: [url="http://www.warmoth.com/Bass/Necks/StandardNecks.aspx"]http://www.warmoth.com/Bass/Necks/StandardNecks.aspx[/url] $180 plus shipping and tax though. Dollar is still about 62p AFAIK Fantastic quality on their stuff, it's worth every penny Rosewood is considered a bit soft for fretless although i loved it on my old bitsa. Ebony and Pau Ferro are thought of as more suitable

I know a few guys who use a bit of compression to balance out the slap tone. I use a booster pedal. I sometimes use a little one made by Silentfly and other times i use the Eq switch in my MXR M80, that has a level and 3 band eq Before i got those i used the Shape switch on my old Hartke pedal. All of those 3 pedals did the job. I notice Silentfly does a clean boost pedal now, looks like a good design, maybe have a look at that?

Ok pm me your address i'll get one out.

Ok pm me your address and i'll try to send it tomorrow

Wow, the grain on yours is slightly nicer than mine. Nice bass!

Make sure the "colour" switch is on too. Great pedals, i love mine!

Comes with a nice case too!

I just coil them and use electrical tape to fasten them. Cheap leads will always break, complete false economy! I live with 2 musicians and there's a bag in the loft full of cheap broken leads that they insist on buying Get some obbm ones or make some up and they should last years

I thought it was a reference to the description, which contained no punctuation and sounded like Vicky Pollard's constant talking without a gap?

If he doesn't want any less than £450 then surely putting the BIN at £325 isn't the best idea? Looks quite nice though, good deal

Yeah still got yours bud

Ok just pm me your address and i'll send 2 out

Oh forgot to add, don't leave these in water for ages as there's only a thin coat of varnish on them. I just did one and i left it in for 15-20 seconds, that was enough.

Ok matey no worries. I don't want any cash for them, if you want to make a small donation to BC then that's cool. Like i said i don't want to make a profit for em, don't want any Lawyers knocking on my door!

Not sure if this sort of thing is allowed so if not please remove the thread, they're free though and strictly for personal projects! Ta Steve

Best looking Ric ever!

Just done a little digging and it seems that these use a dual-coil woofer so impedance switching would actually work. Was getting worried that another accuswitch debacle was on the cards! I'm even more interested in these now!

Don't do it, wait until you have the bass before leaving feedback. If you don't you'll have no comeback on it as you have already said you are happy with it I had someone actually say they couldn't afford to post an item unless i left feedback and the money went through Sounds dodgy, play it safe

[quote name='Starless' post='726754' date='Jan 27 2010, 07:43 PM']I may just do that.. Unfortunately I have no idea where to price it as there seems to be no other examples of this bass kicking around anywhere.[/quote] Don't sell it yet, i can't afford/store another bass!

There's a clamp design on ths site: [url="http://www.jhs.co.uk/stringswing.html"]http://www.jhs.co.uk/stringswing.html[/url]

That's the first 'Ray i've liked the look of in ages, nice collection!

Someone on here (Sibob?) was selling a Squier Bronco shorty for £50. Interparcel will deliver it for £8, i'd bag that if i were you

I'd proably be looking for a 2nd hand ESP LTD or Ibanez I played a really good LTD SG style bass a while ago, had a huge tone from two massive EMG humbuckers, woulda been great for metal. I'd have a serious look at this one though, very cheap and should sound beastly: [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ESP-Ltd-F-104-F104-F-104-Active-Bass-24-fret-Metal_W0QQitemZ250569052409QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV?hash=item3a571450f9"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ESP-Ltd-F-104-F104-F...=item3a571450f9[/url]

[quote name='fatback' post='725041' date='Jan 26 2010, 12:37 PM']Presumably that means the buffer has to be inboard, then routed to the master volume? A stacked pot sounds good.[/quote] I think so, that's how i'm having it. Hopefully i'll have vol/vol/tone for the mag pups, usual jazz configuration. Then a stacked vol/tone for the piezo. My tech is also gonna put a series/parallel switch in for the mag pickups so hopefully i should be able to get quite a few really different sound out of it

[quote name='fatback' post='724999' date='Jan 26 2010, 12:04 PM']Neat little box. I've already got an outboard Sadowsky that could control the final tone of the bass, Would that do? I guess I'd still need some kind of blend pot? Th bass only has tone and vol. Interesting thread.[/quote] I'm no expert and would appreciate verification, but i thought the buffer preamp would come before the volume/blend pot, so the impedance matches the mag pickups before it goes to the output jack? Like i said, i'm just assuming that and not basing it on any technical knowledge whatsoever! You could always look at a stacked pot if you don't want to drill any more holes in the bass/pickguard. That's what i'm doing, also takes up less space in the cavity
