Many happies Willie. The man who wrote my favourite song (Nightlife).

Mine is "Bloody Mary Morning" I sing it at least twice a week as I'm waking.

My first choice in treble geetards are flying V's second choice are SG's.

I made a couple this weekend out of ebony. 

I have one, the contours and the reverse tuners are the only drawbacks.

LOVE the single coil  

I don’t mind the inlay.

it did inspire me to build a slabside.

Only 3 pedals are plugged in, was doing a drive shootout... Iskra won...

Which “country”?

still waiting on a goncalo alves/zircote neck....

I went through a recent build and buy streak so it is very hard to pick one...

but this one is hanging next to the bed right now

Thanks that’s really helpful

It has theBBOT type bridge, albeit slightly chunkier than the older ones.

You already got a winner, the couple bridge covers I have won't fit over the heftier bridges.

I was thinking of upgrading the stock bridge on my new fsr p bass to either a fender brass high mass (27 quid seems a good deal) or a babicz or something similar. Any thoughts, is it worth it ?

Having recently put together 5 basses, I bought an array of used and new bridges.  The stock Fender BBOT, is my favorite.

the Gotoh and Hipshot offerings look cooler, but not worth the extra expense.

Doesn't the FSR come with the Fender Badass copy?  Those are pretty sweet already.

Ampeg Micro VR 150w single cab, 200w with extension (right)

Ampeg BA-210 285w as a combo, 450w with extension (middle)

(Left) is the BA-112 75w with no capability for and extension and no DI.

extension cab (left) is the pf210he 450w

For your purposes I’d recommend everything but the BA-112.  Although a 150w BA-115 is 150w and has a line out,  and does not allow for an extension.

Just finished these up

I fitted the pickup and bridge covers, but can’t really see using them, I’m a few weeks out on the fretless neck but this will do tor now  

Ok last build!

Did you apply the colour with a roller and acrylic?

I did a french polish with $.50 acrylic, and a coating of spray laquer.

I decided the roasted maple will work here best.  Had to drill extra holes so the decision is final.

This bass is capalta? With a figured maple cap...

the paint covered all that crap up...

Had to have a thumbrest...

The title had me concerned it was this shite show..
