    Why not leave the tug bar and just add a thumb rest? Or replace the pick guard, or even try to get some small grommet blanks?

    ...predicts OP GAS within about 6 months. Then if OP keeps playing, she will have 9 basses in 3 years. It's way worse than shoes.

    Stings - just as described. Super, super fast delivery. Thank you Andy!

    [quote name='bassadder' timestamp='1496217852' post='3309564'] I've priced the U-Bass for a cash sale I have loads of basses at mo, but many thanks anyway [/quote] I had to ask. Even though I never play mine...

    [quote name='bazztard' timestamp='1496207673' post='3309499'] I was gonna reply, but you don't want attention.....[/quote] [quote name='bazztard' timestamp='1496207673' post='3309499'] firstly, try a different web browser like Firefox [/quote] Now why didn't I think of that? Edit: Nope. I've tried Safari and Firefox - no luck. It's the embedded links that don't show up. On the "best bass lines thread", I'm just getting a load of blank replies.

    I'm not really going to introduce myself, as I just don't want the attention. But why can't I see the links people are posting (I assume to You Tube etc)? I'm on Chrome, on Mac, ([color=#303942]Version 49.0.2623.112 (64-bit)).[/color] [color=#303942]TIA[/color]

    [quote name='Rich' timestamp='1495725495' post='3306173'] For me, Stevie's 'For Once In My Life' has got to be well up there. Jamerson at his absolute best, total mastery. This graphic representation gives an idea of its combination of fearsome complexity and effortless groove. [media]http://youtu.be/At3OP5CvIRY[/media] [/quote] This. Shivers down my spine when I first heard the bass, which, embarrassingly, was only recently. I also like a bit of ABBA as well though...

    [quote name='bassadder' timestamp='1496162614' post='3309255'] Many thanks for the heads up. For some reason I can't reply to the wanted ad And thanks for the vote of confidence on the price.... I just want to sell it so I'm being realistic for a quick sale. Cheers Laurence [/quote] No problem. Just a thought though, I don't suppose you want to swap it for a Rumbler (or SUB) and cash to you?
  11. missis sumner
    That's a good price. Mine's the cheaper version with soft bag, and I wouldn't sell mine for less than £300. There's someone in Liverpool looking for one in the "wanted" section. Edit: It was lobematt, here: http://basschat.co.uk/topic/305743-kala-u-bass/page__hl__kala__fromsearch__1

    You should have a PM/U2U... if I've done it right.
  13. missis sumner
    I'm not sure I like the look of the headstock, and I'm certainly not sure I need another bass, but I'm a sucker for a nice thin neck, and it is a nice colour... Does it have side markers on the frets?
  14. missis sumner
    I can find my soldering iron, but not my clothes iron, for the life of me! Oh, well...

    [quote name='hubrad' timestamp='1493841432' post='3291239'] IIRC the Jaguar is short scale anyway, but not 24 fret, so you might ideally need to learn how to use a router or get someone to do the neck pocket. All part of the rich learning process of life. [/quote] Or I could just use my dremel. Yeah, neck pocket - I had thought of screw positioning, but not really followed the thought process through. @TheGreek - the builds thread is a good shout. I'll take a look.
  16. missis sumner
    Yes, I realise the question is probably arse-about-tit, but I bought a very cheap brand new short scale bass to use on my holidays, and everything apart from the actual body is quite nice. It's a PMT "Eastcoast" brand short scale, in black; I believe Stagg copy/made? Anyway, I'm happy with the neck and especially the 24 frets. The bridge looks solid, the tuners stay in tune. The pickups are okay... How easy would it be to transplant a half-decent body onto it? I'm looking at this (as an example - I don't mind if you all bid on it, I've got time to wait for the next one): [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Squier-by-Fender-Jaguar-Bass-Body-Pickups-electrics-/292101926354?hash=item4402a1add2:g:iwwAAOSwT-FZBily"]http://www.ebay.co.u...wwAAOSwT-FZBily[/url] Of course, I would keep the P-J setup, and I understand I would have to locate my bridge so that the scale length is approximately the same as the Eastcoast. Is there much more to it?
