The most difficult thing is definitely getting started. I find once you've got just any old thing down, the fleshing out process takes on a life of its own, that's why the picture is so useful, it gives that certain nudge.

Is it universal voltage input?

Which did you go for?

It's Mr. Alpha to you sonny! You're welcome. My bass has no scratchplate, so the routes are on display, so a super neat job was done, managed to not chip out any of the paint, he had t make his own templates too! I can't remember how much he charged, but I was happy to pay it, for the amount of work he must have put in.

Steve Kendall in East Hanney did a nice job re routing my Masters bass for emgs. He'd be ideal.

Sounds like someone lost an eye....

Don't beat yourself up about it! It's just a bit of fun and games (until someone loses an eye.... )

Who wouldn't love being hunched over a microscope all day, like today, for instance. Still haven't found my drumming skills yet though... maybe I need x20 eyepieces! By the way Dad, good job this month, my favourite of all your efforts to date. I've got 2 of my 3 sorted.

Shame I can't get SoundCloud at work

[/quote] Yes, a lot of boleros! I played it to a mate, and he said it sounded like when you have 2 different youtube sessions playing at the same time

If you could prise one end of the handle off, heat shrink tubing would do the job.

Agreed, super honest commentary.

[quote name='Leonard Smalls' timestamp='1500656166' post='3339447'] Due to rain today and a few moments spare I had a brief fiddle.... https://soundcloud.com/leonard-smalls/the-big-bossa [/quote] That's nice and odd. Brings to mind 8-bit video game music.

That looks like a handy all-round piece of kit. Great score for £45!

Is there a reason the pickup can't be re wound? Should be possible as long as they aren't epoxy potted.

You asked for it: ideas, 7, ability, nil, what a thrashing! Here you go: https://soundcloud.com/julian-moss-511168525/tango-triste BOOM!! Early for once!

I've just knocked something together. The question now is whether to try and put drums on it and make it worse. I suspect Len Goodman would dislocate his hip trying to dance to it, what with the alternating bars of 9 and 7, and the random odd 8 thrown in there. Despite that, I think it sounds quite romantic. So: to drum or not to drum....?

JC aren't amps usually associated with drive!

The pink one would look nice being played by Lady Penelope. Good match for the Rolls.

I've had a fretless neck done with black lines. Pretty much invisible from a distance against a rosewood (actually, pao ferro) board. Carefully applied Sharpie would achieve similar temporary effect.

The solo on the single version of 25 or 6 to 4 by Chicago is concise and flippin ace. Terry Kath was the shizz. The horns ain't too shabby either. Could only find the album length version on YouTube

Agreed, you can sit or stand on the cabs just like any other. Just out of interest Bill, what does your own Jack lite weigh?

The new 10s are designated 10cr250. I think the 250 refers to the displacement in cc. I thought I'd read that on his website but couldn't see it after a very brief squizz.

Just repeat the mantra "the funk is in the gunk"
