Thanks @Bass Direct. I was intending to contact you and Bass Bros, but life is massively complicated at the moment and June is a lifetime away. DM me if you want to chat.

Probably 9 ish?

There will only be fellow BassChatters. There will be a list on the door and we ask people to wear lanyards/badges. (And if you're playing someone else's bass then just throw the lanyard over your shoulder so the clasp can't scratch the instrument.)

Love the bolt head to blank off the hole!

Why is this in the Reviews section?

Is that the one that was on Reverb? A very cool looking bass! I don't know anythjng about this model, but I've never played a bad Yamaha.

"Best enjoyed in retrospect" is an excellent title.

Cool playlist. Thank you. Karl Clews is great:

That's a really interesting experiment. I think there needs to be safety chains on the "bridge" magnet to stop it crashing into the "tailpiece" magnet in the event of a string break. And it did crack me up that the video is sponsored by injury compensation lawyers!

The black is cool, but I have to admit I liked the red Lego look.

Why? To my mind it's a sensible upgrade that wouldn't change the sound or value of the instrument but would make it more usable. I assume you might have to chisel a bit if the original slot is not flat-bottomed? You have done lots of removal of fingerboard removals, Andy, and one of your threads has a really good step-by-step with photos which I would link to but I can't find it.

Is that a metal insert? Blimey! Hats off to @Jabba_the_gut

I thought this was a duplicate post relating to the new magazine The Bassist.

291g pull force per magnet. That seems like quite a lot to lever open with a pl3ctrum as you would presumably need to lift two completely off the back and then use your finger?

I like FreeCad. Had a quick play with Fusion but FreeCad clicked quicker for me.
