Bolt on Maple neck, Rosewood board, same dimensions nut width, neck thickness and radius as the SRs...

Action still a little high, saddles on the deck.. Anyone got a B250k solid shaft pot going spare, rattling around there spares draw, following an upgrade? I can find an A taper, or a split shaft. But not a B in Solid... The Funky Silver Space Machine!

Yep... was aware that it was bakalite-alike... Yep... had a look at the '02 and '03 Ibby catalogues... It was / is strung as per the pics as far as string run... but previously had way to much string.... so cut em down a bit... now 8cm past the post giving about 3 turns.

So, strolling past crack converters, as ya do... Ibanez EDA900 that i spotted 6 weeks or so ago was still in the window... Now priced at £100... I updated the above post and got absolutly no support or counseling for GAS... YOU BASSCHAT BASTARDS MADE ME DO IT... Strings off, fret clean with wire wool and a dremel polish, oiled the fretbord, squirt of Mr sheen... Wonky first pot, (Pickup Vol)... pulls out a bit and just goes round and round!? - B250k Solid Shaft... Put the old strings back on after cutting about 4cm off each one leaving 8cm past the post n three turns on the spindle... Action is a bit high, dropped the saddles, but the truss may need a tweek. Found a manual so will give that a read, piezo pickups? Ready for some distorted synth funk from the Zoom B1xFour - gonna channel my inner Daft Punk So, bit-of-weird for £85... What ya recon?

You BAD people... I went back to the shop... Don't need another bass, got 3 and can't play! - £85 and left the shop with it in hand...

Just passed the shop... now £99.... I would be so introuble...

Jim Dunlop Jazz III... used em years back on the GTR...

Ta ...just set the tivo to stun... will watch with my eldest (16) loves a bit of political motivation n' music. bet its content is just as relevant today some 40 odd years on...

Maybe more than one bass... Or a borrow from the Beeb prop dept for the show...

Welcome, nice intro... I'm on the Hal Leonard Method Pathway... sounds like some sort of rehab treatment!

Pic would help... Being a learner, i likes a rest... stuck one on the GSR200, often find myself using the end of the fret board on the SR600 as the pickup are quite tall... The wax idea sounds like a cunning plan, where a replacement pick guard wont fix... Are these the Hardware store, Homebase Furniture scratch type crayon? Maybe a cocktail stick snipped to go below the surface to take up most of the hole, with a crayon topping...

Me!... No... wait... I thought it said 'Slightly overweighted bass palyers'...

put a thumb rest back on... then you only have one set to fill, unless the thumb rest covers the others. got some nice wood ones from thebay, feel nice compared to slippy plastic.

Fink it was a X head adjust at the body end of the neck...

So, was that a genuine Jan '66 (as on the end of the bound neck...) Fender Jazz? No logo, and those machine heads?

Fire Engine Red - The Grid, 456 (Feat. Zodiac Mindwarp)

That '74 looks classic n' classy ...

So the individual sadles follow the angle of the string to the nut, rather than the sadles being parallel on the body... Only really seen em used on some Ibanez models, and usually the fan-frets...

Got a Boss PC-2 Percussion Synth http://www.vintagesynth.com/roland/bosspc2.php and a Boss HC-2 http://www.vintagesynth.com/roland/bosshc2.php Both been sat in their boxes for the last 25-30 years...

I know you said no 'Lives'... But can i just sneak in Hawkwind, Space Ritual... please? No... Ar$3!

Tears for fears were on classic albums on beeb4 yesters...

Marshall... needed a replacement for a cracked knob (stop sniggering...) for my eBay MB15 combo... old and odd stuff not listed on their web site.... sent em an email enquiry as no phones and closed early lockdown... a couple turned up in the post a couple of weeks later.. Fine!

not sure what the 4 way does in pu config but that should be quite a std... EDIT: Found it https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibson_EB-3 Push pull pots, to tap the humbuckers to single coil? You could go stacked pots for VT for each pickup... 2 pots in one hole...

RGB300 is wider at the nut, like the GSR200 - than the SR... Couple of mm but noticeable... P v Jazz Anyone?
