    3 dodgy volume pots?!! That's really quite unlucky, or you were doing something to damage or overheat them in the process of changing them. Well done for fixing it though!

    It allows you to set slightly less relief on the treble side, if you want to.

    Blueburst, black scratch plate.

    I'm so glad it worked out well! One does feel kind of responsible when one makes recommendations. i think it should be made more widely known that there is pretty much no speaker problem that they can't fix, recones, magnet re-centring, the lot.

    Godin Solidac plus some cash?
  6. MoonBassAlpha
    I think you will be just fine. Tubes are very robust electrically.
  7. MoonBassAlpha
    Surely the metal ball still makes contact with the bridge though?

    I do know the East preamp have a very high output, could it be overloading the Nadys input?
  9. MoonBassAlpha
    I like that a lot! I especially like the jazzy one in white that looks like a mint imperial though.

    For that money you could get one of those lovely Ritter guitars. I think the design is interesting, and the purple one looks like velour.

    Another thing to consider is, with a black covered bass, it might not have the prettiest wood underneath! I imagine they'd save that for the clear and sunburst ones. Could be a bit of a lottery.

    [url="http://www.mother-of-tone.com/lacquer.htm"]http://www.mother-of-tone.com/lacquer.htm[/url] This might be an interesting read. This guy has a philosophy which some might consider "out there" but he is obsessed with removing the obstacles to good tone in his ultra-fi products, and there is this bit on lacquer on guitars.

    Very glad to help! Did it work out ok? I had one of my mum's hifi speakers done by them, super job!

    Thanks for the input chaps, I actually pulled the trigger Monday, delivered to work today. Watch out for the "for sale" section soon!

    The last gig I did, one of the other band's bassist said to me "I didn't know what the situation with gear was, so I didn't bring mine" I did laugh out loud at that, but did let him use my stuff as our drummer also plays for them.

    I think the user is Gadge. Always been helpful to me.
  17. MoonBassAlpha
    The chap who runs the Eggle forum is a user on here. I'm sure he will be along to help shortly...

    Thanks for the input chaps. Any more comments, pos or neg, before I get one of these? Cheers

    Try linking the send return sockets with a known working lead. If these are rarely or never used they can get tarnished and mute the signal.

    It's clearly not fubar then, good news! It will probably be a dry joint somewhere or a slightly iffy socket. Any decent tech would be able to go over it and make it good as new.

    Hi all. I'm looking to solicit opinion from Ditto users as to whether it is something you have kept on using, or an interesting novelty that gets put aside once the, err, novelty, has worn off. I know people would all have different uses for it, just trying to get a cross section of opinion. Cheers Jules

    You can use a credit card as a fret rocker on that D string 13 fret and see if it is high relative to the frets either side. You could also use it to pay a luthier to look at it for you...
  23. MoonBassAlpha
    Neat work, nice. One thing though - aren't the power and output transformers usually oriented at right angles to each other?
  24. MoonBassAlpha
    I'm just curious what you think this bass will give you that a standard Fender P bass won't. I'm sure it will be nice though...
  25. MoonBassAlpha
    4.5k is quite weedy for a single coil. Any cheap Strat pickup from your parts bin would probably do better than that.
