  1. The Force is Strong with Entwistle Pickups!
  2. Diggin in the dirt - Peter Gabriel
  3. Horse(chesnut) with no name - America
  4. I'd of saved myself £60 and changed the name of the band to 'Barefaced'... 🤣
  5. Snap, crackle, pop.... majority of old vinyl...
  6. Any trouble with strings? Check the speaking length... Couple of old sets i had kicking about would not fit as the extra length behind the bridge sadles to the ball end block meant the thinner peg windings of the string wasn't over the nut but halfway on the 1st fret. Choose wisely @Bassfinger...
  7. ^ And that's Basschat Dad!...
  8. Real Interesting Read... Is this for a TDK C90 Normal or the Chrome? Dolby NR button in... Yes?
  9. Just dug mine out from the 'usefull tat that doesnt have a home draw'... and giving it a whirl.. Got it back in '05... £18
  10. Yep... Had one for about 20 yrs... Got it when i broke my wrist and dislocated my shoulder in a motorbike, (scooter!) Accident... Spin it up with the string... Then 'stir' the wrist... like stiring a cup of tea or slight 3D 'whisking' motion, like whisking eggs... close to the body... Start slow, below the gyro speed the speed up till it 'catches'... thats the tricky bit... you are trying to throw the weight to the wall of the ball... Then speed up the wrist rotation to acceletate.... You can then try with arm up or outstreatched.
  11. Tried Passive (If the pickups allow...) to see if the issue is pups or pre... Never know you might like it passive? Think there was a John East in the classifieds...
  12. Tuners... These are nice and reasonable... https://www.northwestguitars.co.uk/4-x-open-back-bass-tuners-for-right-handed-bass-guitar/ Screw hols were bang-on for what i needed so was extra handy... Aria Pro Jazz
  13. The Smile: forget everything you knew... 03:00 sat am...
  14. ^ I Like That... Maybe a 5 Way Strat Switch...
  15. Used Vanson... via ebay for knobs etc... Friendly bloke there... drop him a line...
  16. ^ Yep... But if you have a glue gun i'd blob a bit at each end at the bottom of the ears... easier to pull off if need be... Wilkinson Alnico's? They get favourable reviews... from Wilkinson via ebay? Check listing / description... See if they can just send you some foam if thats what they are meant to come with...
  17. Some covers have a little notch to hold the bobbin....or a dab of hot glue gun (if ya got one) to hold in place... Got a Entwistle PJ set coming, and might need to change covers due to the ears, shame as Entwistle covers are branded....
  18. Yes and No... Some do, which is some times handy, some are glued and don't... Often Split P covers are over wide at the ears, and the pup bobbin can fit in a smaller cover... if it isn't glued in! So Foam underneath gives the pressure to keep the pup bobbin in the cover... then screws 'n springs to adjust...
  19. Maybe the Basschat Admin could drop Rob 'Status' a line with a link showing the love for his work...
  20. Rubber Bullets - 10cc
  21. Rewind - Craig David. (Shoot me now!) Bo Selecta!
  22. Iron Lion Zion - Bob M
