The above reflects my experience over the last years. Great service.

When I had one I used LaBella S660 nylon tapewounds on it. No need to mess with changing to conventional strings unless availability of double ball end strings is the problem locally. I use this supplier, but after Brexit you may prefer a UK-based one. https://lordofthestrings.com/en/bass/electric/double-ball

Great seller!! Excellent description, communication, packaging and attention to detail. Trusted B/Cer....deal with confidence. Thank you, Pete.

..........and we all know what he was doing as the day job!

Yes, it would need to be a very special s/h item for me to buy from the UK now. Such a shame. However, in reverse of what the OP posted, I find myself screening-in the EU items and screening-out the UK-based stuff. The BC marketplace still works well irrespective of the change in the status of the UK.

You mean you don't like Lieutenant Pigeon?

Correct. Most domestic polishes will have silicones of some sort in them. Even in very small quantities, these are very difficult to remove if you ever want/need to do paint touch ups or a re-coat. They're just a real pain, causing the new paint to have "fish-eyes" in it and ruining the surface. Most professional auto polishes are silicone-free and most guitar-specific polishes are just re-branded auto polishes in dedicated (small size and very expensive) packaging. Meguiers auto polishes are used by Fender, for example. Just stay clear of using Armor-All on or near any auto or guitar paintwork/lacquer. It has a high silicone content as do most auto interior dashboard sprays.

Then why not try a stomp pedal? Ah.......but which one??😀

That is so true. I'd like at least to be in remission with my GAS addiction.

Been there, seen it, done it.............and, bought the T shirt!

John Hartman and Michael Hossack, as a pair. Doobie heaven!!

I quite surprised myself with a score of 120 (as well or better than 90.88%). Feeling proud and wanting to share this using a screen-shot for you, I scored a fat zerooooooo in my computer skills. Hey ho!!

If you can handle the tension and the price, TI flats are surprisingly bright and last forever.

Gator cases are fine. I've also found SKB to be OK and, of course, Hiscox.

When they are bored with Heart, they've also done stuff as a duo plus a few others under the name "Lovemongers".

Silly Love Songs? I kinda think Macca must have written that one on bass, no?

Sounds like a good plan. Please do report back on your experiences with the pedal, which will no doubt be of interest to others.

Good luck with that!

Chords and harmonics are rarely played but add a dimension in assessing "zing" and sustain.
