My experience with bridge saddle height and intonation. And cured the bridge roll to nice and seated.

Similar experience with an electro acoustics... just make sure the piezo element is flat and central to the strings / cavity... some times they have raised sections, on the saddle blade, piezo element, or both. 

I got a spare bridge blade. Cheap enough then file or mid that one keeping the OE as a reference.

Yesters... Hullabaloo Muse Tribute @ The Beaverwood in Chislehurst.

Took my Son, Great Gig

Mr Ironside - The Killers...

Watching the Detectives - Elvis Costello

Don't know the bass or set up but... if 'Custom Shop 62' maybe checkout the TonerRider P as a more cost effective option to trial... and 'prolly all you need 😉

Vol/Vol, Tone/Tone, Rear Wash Wipe, Hazards and Cibie Spots...

Nice, can almost forgive the tort...

SR's such lovely body 'n neck... if it were a 4?

My Passive P and It's glorious! -  @Andyjr1515

Me? I'd Go Budget Bass-ic...

Wilkinson 5 String PJ Set £50ish, Vol/Blend/Tone (or Artec QTP) for some Sublime Simplicity... Winter evening project?

I want it all now - The Tubes

Great Album...

Telehead... page 6bass heads.pdf

@LeftyP sweeeeeet looking hollow body that... let's have a pic of the headstock. It's got to have something going on to fit in with those off set f holes.

Vol Vol Tone - VVT (tone often with a smaller knob) and sometimes wired Vol Blend Tone - VBT

So Vol/Vol (or Vol/ Blend) instead of Vol and Pickup Selector...

My Custom Jazz Body Bitsa... Rear Rout, Angled PJ pickups, in White (Primer...)

Forward Angle... Saddles on the deck...

Needs a shim in the back of the neck pocket.

Truss Rod isn't the the thing to fix what you describe...

Hold the E on the 1st fret and say the 12th or 17th... to act as a straight edge against the neck

Should be a Business Card / Credit Card gap called the 'Relief' between bottom of string and the top of the 7th, 9th fret... take a look... this is what the truss rod adjusts.

Slight Shim in the neck pocket will angle the neck back, and mean the saddles need to be raised, allowing the action to be set.

Not in a band... but my Son loves the sound of his Fretless, Drive and Wah, playing more lead, melody.

He feels it's fretless capabilities and difference should be explored more.

He's trying the the Zoom B1 Synth stuff to come up with something...

He asked me how to get a more 'Saxophone Sound' ? Feels the expressiveness can provide an overlap...

Anyone?

Angled Back Tele?

And to make it lighter... 4 Fish Tails instead of Hefalump Ears...

Got a set in black for postage£

Before ya cut n drill...

(They are Right handed so wont work reverse Tele)

^Quality Good... adjustable with a hex at the bottom... not light though, although neither is the bass!

Mine got a set of these...

I found the scratch plate - still got the plastic film on it... pm me your address and i'll stick it in the post...

Behringer BDI21 'Dark' (w/ Mid-Mod)

As in, Good luck finding it in the dark!..

^ I have found a single machine head, but is different.

I should have 2 that came off... which leads me to belive i am looking in the wrong place! - Sorry.. if they turn up i'll let ya know.

Looks like the headstock is angled back on a scarf...

For me... straight string runs...

And i think the best looking headstock is the Ibanez SR...

But Hey! Why not an angled back Tele Head?

^ Same, 3 Ply White

Machine Head(s)?... got a scratchplate as well, if yours don't clean up... Yours for £Postage

Caught by the Fuzz - Supergrass

Bogie Wonderland - EW&F

I'd start with a quick look on Gumtree and Faceache... see whats local.

I loves it... Ibby GSR200 £60ish... Squier P £80ish... quick haggle 'n £50 and £60...

See whats out there and report back with a short list.

What sort of music or look do they like... a bass that they want to pick up is better than one they don't

That Maison screams Cort/Ibanez to me... PJ, Active Tones, a more compact body than a Squier P and 'prolly a sleeker neck... I'd give that a Serious Consideration...
