I’ve had quite a few precisions and the necks do vary, if you don’t want the wider nut ie 44mm I’d stay away from the 60s reissues, the Nate Mendel as mentioned might fit your needs, it was based on a 71 P (41.02 mm) nut , but it only came in one colour I believe which is the red

A bit of Sean Hurley this morning , love this Bassline

That’s very cool mr B , love it

I’ve used nail polish to touch up on the body paint which came out pretty good but I’ve never done it to a neck, maybe worth a try with a little bit on a toothpick or something similar

What about a tiny bit of clear nail polish and lightly smooth it

I use an Ampeg V-4B 100W with a Barefaced big baby 2 in my bass room, there’s no fan noise so it’s a nice silent setup, not big but lately I’ve been using my PF-50T a lot and really enjoying it

Welcome Doug

16 years zombie 🧟 thread 😁, I agree with you there Steve, I like some slap, I think forget me nots by Freddie Washington is a masterpiece but the crazy frantic slapping sounds terrible

Yeah the logo is wrong, I’d ask to see the neck heel stamp, and all the other serial numbers before thinking about that one

You used to be able to access all the categories on Trojan but they stopped it about two years ago, looks like it’s back again, good news

Nice mellow one this morning mixed by Roberto Sanchez , Ethiopia dub

Wow Rick, they are amazing

First off I thought it was an aria or maybe vantage but the headstock is different, really not sure ,but a cool looking bass

That’s bad that someone moved that on knowing it’s got a fault, I feel for you, can’t quite see but is there enough thread in there to try fitting a truss rod nut, just a suggestion you could maybe put out a wanted ad if your looking for another neck, they do come up here now and again, good luck with your search

Welcome David

I don’t know where your located but I was browsing something else and I saw this ampeg BA 115 on gumtree, looks tidy

Same to you pulsebeat, great tune

Im quite good with general IT stuff but a total layman when it comes to recording, I spent days trying to figure out reaper and and a few others, it’s probably simpler if you’ve got someone to show you and get you going, so I tried GarageBand and found it the easiest to work, probably quite limited for some but it does what I need which is to record my playing and play over songs I’m working on , maybe give that a try Dom

Same here Piers, I play a 71 with LTF’s mainly , I came across bill a while back while looking into the Olinto P basses, he’s such a good player, they rarely come up for sale over here though, the few I have seen were well expensive

I follow Bill and I like a nice groove , I’d never heard this song before , a bit tricky in places so I’m breaking it down bit by bit

Nice bit of playing, just sounds like a standard jazz to me with both pickups on full with the tone rolled back a little, and roundwound strings playing close to the bridge

Can’t remember if it was mentioned before but how cool looking is this Arkham amp, apparently they are made to order , has anyone ever tried one

Tony bought some strings from me, paid instantly and let me know they arrived safely, pleasure to deal with, thanks tony

Just a suggestion, have you looked at the Ashdown RM500, they really are a very good amp and I’d say you should get one around your budget

I was wondering that too, do you think eBay will put the fee on top of the seller’s asking price , it says You’ll pay up to 4% of the item price, plus £0.75. For example, when you see an item for £20, the fee of £1.49 will already be part of the price
