    Good point BRX, a lot of old Japanese guitars had humbucker sized housings containing single coil gubbins.

    It's also worth bearing in mind that the lower you set your action, the more catastrophic the effect of seasonal changes to the neck; a slight straightening could render the thing unplayable. Also, and this is a matter of personal taste, I don't find the lowest achievable action yields the nicest sound, with normal playing, and restricts the available dynamics.

    Interesting video, and if you read into the comments, a guy from KRK pops up and says the engineers there had seen this conductive are corrosive potting compound in their products, which was not specified in the build standard. Get scraping!

    You sure you weren't at a Baldrick poetry recital?

    Squier pronounced like the ie part of quiet, I believe.

    A preamp or acoustic pedal that has a notch filter worked an absolute treat for my mate's Verithin bass. Stopped the feedback dead.

    Looks like a reasonable effort by someone for whom English is not their first language.

    We had a girl in our office from that neck of the woods. Even she admitted it sounded funny when we got her to say "how now, brown cow?". Right up there with getting a Glaswegian to say "burglar alarm"

    I thought this thread was going to be about somebody's "journey" to rehabilitation at some detox clinic up north

    Out of interest, what did you do, and how is it worse? Might be useful info for others considering the problem.

    Good work there, sounds like a good gigging unit after only 4 gigs behind you.

    Hipster Tug Bar, does sound like a, er, gentleman's club, or similar establishment.

    Nice. Good Changes has a touch of Hatfield and the North about it.

    I've never seen one with that shaped scratch-plate and those 4 controls laid out like that. They ones I've seen have 2 controls on a control plate like the Beatle Bass. Great basses these, really nice to play!

    Blue screen and archive footage?

    Said the man in the orthopaedic shoes.....

    Yes, the Line 6 would fit the original criteria nicely

    I watched the Aja documentary last night, and there's a lot of Chuck on that too. Super playing and quite an unusual sound when heard in isolation. Is it safe to guess he uses flatwound strings?

    That would have been me this month then....

    Somebody owes someone a granny!

    @SH73 did you get them sorted?

    I think if there isn't enough room for Velcro, that would rule out Dual Lock too, unfortunately. I'm sure you could fashion something using Sugru It's like a moldable silicone rubber

    I've mentioned this anecdote before, met the bassist from a band before our shared bill gig. He didn't know what the gear share situation was ,so his default position was to not bring his amp. Beggars belief.

    Pulled the trigger on the BEAM. Lets hope it turns up!

    They're out of the Akai at present, and I did wonder about the wisdom of buying from a company in receivership. They are doing the Blackstar beam at a tempting price though. ..
