As some may know, my interest in alternative materials in stringed instruments has been growing. Many people have tried different things such as status with carbon fibre, alusonic with aluminium and the use of richlite and other phenolic fretboards. What are your thoughts on the use of 'non traditional' materials?

is this still available?

One of my multiscale midget basses?

Quite interesting. From the current bodged assembly of it it has a decent amount of sustai but not as much as your standard scale bass. Nice brightness from the maple f/b and the mahog gives it a little more growl and lovely open pore bassyness

Are you still offering tuition

Nice

No problem

Yeah, that’s actually what I do on weekends. To get tolex off, heat a bit and rip off all you can. Use a Stanley blade and lighter fluid to scrap glue off and then we use vinyl paint.

If you can find split coil jazz pickups you can get a more precisionish tone

Have a look at Seymour Duncan quarter pounders. They’re nice and hot.

I might be able to, I’m near uttoxeter.

I had that idea this morning. Glow in the dark epoxy at the 3rd,5th,7th (and so on)? ove got it assembled as a lined fretless at the moment

Is that a 4003?

Cheap behringer mixer for 20 quid?

Si600 - Nothing. You've already seen all my stuff and if the weather is nice I want to get the bike out 2. Norris - Ampeg BA-108 and Yamaha TRBX305 3. SpondonBassed - Pitbull IB5 (bass built from kit) if I can blag a lift and return for Enderby 4. Andyjr1515 - Kert's Camphor Singlecut; Pete's EB-3 tribute; Pete's Piccolo Bass 5. Jabba_the_gut - Some self build basses, Blackline 250 head and TC RS112 cabs 6. Harryburke360 - the return of the red jazz bass, should act as a "here's one I made earlier" for Andy. Also probably the Shatesbury Rick 4001 Copy as long as no representative of the Hall family is invited. 7.jebroad- progress of 20” midget, dingwall combustion and cake.

look at the EMG geezer buttler signature set

Ok, I’ve got a 23.5”-22” waiting for me to build.

I love the name Jamie, Jamie

I call dodgy contacts on the output jack. If you want, I can have a look at it. I’m inbetween derby and stoke.

Should i bring my dingwall?

Definitely. It’s even worse if it snaps.

Depends if there’s lots of dust around really, it’s a method used with epoxy resin very often.
