it is nice as it stands and was my main bass for many years, but it is pretty heavy and I fancied a change Jon has the neck and is shaping the neck pocket to fit. It is going to be lush.

It should be with me by middle of next week Some luthiers are like some drummers - time is often an abstract concept rather than a linear process.

I ordered one of these for my ACME 12" cab. They had not made one before, so I did the measurements. I hate doing measurements cos I always get them wrong. I did. They emailed me to tell me that they were wrong because they did not add up. I re-measured and then they worked. They made me a great cover. I am happy.

Felt under the strings sounds different from foam. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwYoi9G67DU&feature=player_embedded#!

Sorry, I came over all "MB1" there.

Just turn your amp up.

[quote name='daflewis' timestamp='1320924933' post='1433155'] I've currently got some prototypes of a new hybrid on my main working bass and have to admit that they're very promising - a bit higher tension, but really responsive under the bow with a lovely thud at the beginning of a pizz note and a brighter sustain (they'll even work with a magnetic pickup) - i actually don't want to take them off, which is a good sign!

Dave bought my cab. He was gracious and prompt as usual.

I will also speak for the honeys. I have spent a LONG time looking for a decent hybrid. None of them actually do both, but honeys are the closest I have found.
