Vibration can cause controls to move.

Experience suggests they are always too long, except when they are too short.

This is unusual... looks like the bridge is missing! Hybrid between a hofner and a Fender 51? @Bassassind you have any clues? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/144217930017?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20191002094254%26meid%3D503aa88a042e4d41a3533d066b3ebbc3%26pid%3D100891%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D255159113873%26itm%3D144217930017%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2332490%26algv%3DDefaultOrganicWeb&_trksid=p2332490.c100891.m5206 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/393518449755?hash=item5b9f87045b:g:bPoAAOSwcjlhHkn8

Weird yes. Wonderful? You decide... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/154401709430?hash=item23f30f1d76%3Ag%3AxxYAAOSwpHxgaW~0&LH_BIN=1&LH_ItemCondition=3000

Some grest names mentioned. What about Boz Burrell and Ronnie Lane. Or Jack Bruce.

+1 even though he used a plectrum, 🙂

Well they worked... Electrolytic aren't meant to fail, but if they do they are designed to split like that to minimise collateral damage. Could mean a fault in the PSU supplying too many volts, in which case new caps may not revive, but worth trying.

But will you have "15-inch woofers for bass you can really feel!"?

I'd be most worried if Phil picked up a dose.

The Walkmen

Richard Thompson.

Various versions of Doctor Doctor.

I think on most 4x4s they are significantly wider apart than on a 4-a-side headstock. The Westone here (too narrow for a change) has tuners 2" apart and my Tanglewood is 2 1/8", Fender is 1 7/8". The difference is more striking than you'd expect.

Case dismissed! Luvvit!
