I would steer clear of it. I bought a paulownia Strat body and finished it quite nicely. I then picked up a Fender one for similar money, so the paulownia one sat in a corner. I've then sold it on ebay (for less than I paid) and the seller has come back and said the wood at the Floyd posts has split. IMHO, it's a light, soft wood, not suitable for making guitars.

Some players seem to change their endorsements more often than their underpants.

I guess this has already been noted, but the picture links in old threads don't seem to be working (I get some markup and the name of the jpg file in square brackets).

Sorry, the ad you are looking for is no longer available. Please see similar ads below.

That's real hardcore man!

Yep - that's the gist of it!

Yes, it is subjective; that's for sure. I wasn't trying to suggest this site should look exactly like the other one or should be torn up and re-implemented into a different system, no-siree!, but rather I was trying to illustrate that the excessive padding and oversizing of decorations is reducing the actual information being presented. And I'm on a 1920x1080 display. (Maybe that's sooo last year and the developers of these tools/frameworks have graduated up to 4k ones?) I really do appreciate the work done and I get the freshness of the style; I'd just like to see it tweaked to focus on the content, which should be doable without compromising the overall style.

By way of illustration; here's a shot from this forum, having scrolled down past the header suff, which shows 13 items (and that's zoomed out to make it slightly smaller!): And here's one from another forum, again scrolled down past the header stuff, which shows 17 (ie. 30% more) in the same screen area (without zoom); it contains the same details and also has a bar of links down the left-hand side. I would say that the 2nd one lets me see more and get to where I want to be more efficiently, but is still a logical & uncluttered display.

If I go into a forum or a thread, the top 1/3rd - 1/2 of the window is taken up by layout.

Well - it's a matter of how much scrolling over how much empty space you have to do to get to where you want to be, for example on the main forum index page. And then when you get into a thread (eg. this one); if you zoom out in your browser, so the text is tiny, you can see maybe 3 posts (and I've !). Other sites have gone through this and the result has been to make them almost unusable (eg. HUKD, and MSE); I guess the web toolkits/frameworks define it.

Great work in getting the new site up! However, there seems to be an awful lot of wasted space on the pages; this seems to be the fashion at the moment, but the net effect is that the amount of real content which is displayed is reduced. It'd be good if the next revision could have the requirement to efficiently display the content itself as the overriding mantra. (Thanks again for runnign the site and please treat this as feedback)

If you click on the item it will open a direct page with just that. eg. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10215146708087938&set=pcb.1231174353654004&type=3&ifg=1

That link goes to a "1996 fender p bass usa in original hardcase"

Why not have a 3rd pickup at the neck position too?

Is the bass Schecter still available?

Those individual bridge things are rubbish.

Dunno if sticking some brass buttons & door knockers onto a bass makes it steampunk.

I think it's more than the neck that has some issues.

The "Bass played on The Chain" seems to be up for sale quite regularly. I suppose people buy it and then spend a few months trying to find the settings to get [i]the[/i] sound and then give up in frustration and sell it on!

That is pretty putrid!

I have to say that I've always found his bass sound a bit farty.

I've got a fretless MM neck on a partsblaster; I think it is rather good. I tend to think of Allparts as midrange on the quality scale.
