Just watching a film and was surprised to hear an Anthony Johnson track in the background, classic tune

I was just about to share one similar to that, I think there was one for sale here once like this

Always, don’t you 😁

Not really as the foam will mute the fretted notes while the fretwrap is the open strings

They dampen and cut down the overtones of open strings , I’ve got them on all my basses

Drop @ped a message 👍

Pretty sure admin/moderator has to do this for you, there’s no setting for it 🙂

Welcome Simon 👍

I’ve got quite a few fender jazzes various colours and types , the one I’d say is a favourite is a 2014 Olympic white US one, but very close is a jazz elite, both very different , it took me a while to get used to the elite active controls but now I know the sweet spots , and build wise I think you would struggle to get a better quality than the elite

Welcome ollimac 👍

Thanks mr D 😁

Thanks BA, it sounds and feels very different to my other precisions , sort of a different character

Thanks Paul, it’s ok for now but it’s an option If I had to

Not yet 😁

Thanks wot , it’s definitely been well played

Thank you ped, that’s the thing it feels and plays really good, I think I just need to get on with playing it and not worrying about things, excuse the messy bass room I’m moving things around

Hi all, on Tuesday I bought a late 71 early 72 precision I really liked the look of, nice dark rosewood fretboard, great sunburst and 41mm slim neck, only 1 owner from new, it’s been a real players bass so definitely not a case queen, it arrived with heavy flats which wasn’t for me and a high action , so I’ve spent today setting it up with old LTF’s from my other precision and it sounds and plays amazing, now I normally only like 100% original basses (and I’ve turned down lots because they wasn’t) but this has had new pots , apart from that it’s all original, so quick question, would the replaced pots bother you, do you think I’m being too fussy

Lovely bass and personally I wouldn’t go drilling out the markers, I’m sure someone here had a similar experience and used tiny luminous stickers for dark stages, not sure if that’s an option for you

Welcome jack 👍

Yeah it’s definitely too short, you got this one with version added

Really great album

I normally write out my practice routine depending on what I’m working on for each week or month , but always end up just playing the tunes I like 😁, this year I intend to stick with my practice

When I ordered mine I had to go through a shop but you could try and enquire here, this is the email they replied to me with about a few questions [email protected]

I never really measured the height ,I just setup with the lowest action possible but a shop once asked so I bought a gauge and 1.5 at the 12th is my maximum i like, a friend of mine who is a really great player has 3mm and I find his basses hard work to play
