    I'm working on one, roping in a couple of old friends for some remote collaboration. Hope my piano player comes through, he likes the song, but has limited time as he's writing a musical on commission ....

    Just saw a Hayman being used on the 1974 Cleo Laine show on the beeb right now Saturday 22.10

    Very nice work on both. I like the lower horn on the first with the upper horn on the second. Both look very tactile though!

    Late to the party, but how about glueing a thin fingerboard on whilst under string tension and clamping it at the exact relief you require, say, using a metal straight edge, g-clamps small and large, and blocks . Difficult to explain without a picture, and it's bedtime!

    Excellent!
  6. MoonBassAlpha
    Sounds about right! Thanks for straightening that out.

    @NickD thanks for your input. I suspect the NS has a better basic sound (transducer etc) to start with. The hi-z input thing might be worth checking, although the buffered output of the Stagg preamp shouldn't need it, it may still sound better.

    Aren't the Custom ones with the neck humbucker and hideous huge scratchplate? I also am no expert!

    My friend has a Stagg eub and was asking what sort of eq and/or effects can be applied to make it sound more like an acoustic double bass. He uses Reaper and their plugins, but doesn't have any 3rd party ones. I used to use a very short reverb on fretless bass, but it wasn't all that convincing, and don't have an eub to try anything on at home. Any experience doing this is more than welcome, cheers.

    Looks beautiful, great work again Jabba!

    I've got Status half wound on my Mustang. Might just be what you're looking for, and not too expensive.

    George Orwell's Coming Up For Air is pretty much about this exact thing

    I've always thought it would be a nice idea to have the tuner knobs with a larger diameter knurled section and smaller boss for ease of turning (better torque) and reversing the orientation for alternate strings. I'm surprised no one has tried this yet, AFAIK anyway!

    The spec says it draws 500mA @5V, sounds rather thirsty for a battery powered application, no?

    I'd say one pickup out of phase too
  16. MoonBassAlpha
    ^that

    When you say the hole, I assume you mean the carefully designed bass hanger feature?

    They work much better with power tools due to the self gripping and centring. 2 other advantages.

    You should see how much my SG has changed colour since 1974...

    @NancyJohnson If your PC has USB 2 and USB 3 ports you could try swapping from one to the other if you haven’t already. I suspect the power supplies may be derived from different points in the main psu as they have different current capabilities. You may just get lucky .

    Nurse! I've got and octivider and envelope filter coming on!!!! NURSE!!!!!

    I've a notion that some dual action truss rods operate in the opposite sense to the vast majority. I can only think it was mentioned on here in the mists of time...

    Sorry, I meant Neutrik ones, should have been more specific. It's really not worth saving a few Bob on the lookey-likeys.
  24. MoonBassAlpha
    Studiospares are decent for connectors and made-up cables too.

    Kacey Musgraves bassist sounds great! Putting in a solid shift!
