  1. Ok……. I'd like to shift this to help [s]finance[/s] pay for a certain something.

    It started off as a fretted Dean Vendetta but as it has a fairly 'mid forward' sound and I fancied it as a fretless I called on Andy Viccars ([url="http://www.andyviccarscustom.co.uk"]www.andyviccarscustom.co.uk[/url]) to work his magic.

    Andy replaced the finger board with a lovely slab of ebony and, as has been done to a couple of my other fretlessessessess, installed Bartolini pickups and preamp.

    This is the result -













    Weighs in at 3.75kg (8.25lbs).

    The neck's 37.6mm wide at the nut.

    The Bart' electronics give a great variety of tones and a fairly hot output. The controls are -


    - Volume (with Active/Passive push-pull)
    - Blend
    - Mid (push pull freq selector)
    - Treble/Bass Stack.


    Only downer is that the board is very slightly marked from using roundwounds.



    Was £475 now [s]£350[/s] £300 including a [u]tatty[/u] hard case delivered to an address of your choice within the mainland UK.

  3. My teacher's got me learning notation for acoustic guitar first. Once I've got the hang of that the idea is that I shift over to the bass clef.

    There are masses of books for learning notation for acoustic and you get to play proper melodies very quickly which is rather nice.

    Seems to be working for me.

    BTW, I've used the very book you've got and I know what you mean about the numerous rhythm exercises. :)

    All the best. :)
