(Eider)Down Down - Quo

What sort of cost are you thinking? How about one of these https://www.thomann.co.uk/harley_benton_bass_guitar_kit_mb_style.htm

Couple of years back i got a Custom P Body made... Enjoyed the whole Bitsa Experience, so got a custom J Body made... Both are Paulowina for cost, it is a soft wood for dinks. Now defunct or rebranded Luthiers Warehouse / Luthiers Crafts, via the Bay. Got a Jazz Neck from Twin--Cam on the bay. There is a company Wild Rainbow Music on the bay, might be worth dropping them a line.

From the packaging i suspect Olympia, similar to Adagio 45-100 Std Tension https://www.thomann.co.uk/harley_benton_hqs_bass_45_100_flatwound.htm

Nice...

Fire Engine Red Leicester - Grid Ft. Zodiac Mindwarp and Robert Fripo.... TUNE!

New plate, screws, pots, jack 'n pup, lift the bridge and slide out the earth wire then no solder has been touched and completely reversable Enjoy!

Gotoh GB9?

I vaguely recall see some long stem. Think they were Gyker. I'll retrace my steps and see what i can find... vaguelyvremember seeing em and thinking 'mmm, Nice...' Twas these i liked... https://www.guyker.com/en-gb/products/tuning-key-machine-head-1-26-ratio-for-electric-guitar-bass

I tried dipping a Custom Jazz Body a while back... too cold, not enough surface area? Dunno. Went too snotty and skin, so got sanded back to natural.

Nice, budget bitsa's are always fun. Just goes to show what an Ali Express neck and a Tone rider pup can give you.

Whats local to you on Faceache Market? I scored a little Eden 8 for £20ish Might see a Baby Rumble 15... Orange Crush, After Eight or som such. Any Loft Find Carpet Covered Combo can be given a Freshen-Up with a Washing up brush and a jumper de-bobbler.

Factory Re-set is always an option. Have you seen and used the ToneLib and Zoom Software? I had a B1 Four and B1 XFour, but sold them for the older B1on and B1Xon, which only works with ToneLib. Good thing is they can be USB powered - so a PowerBank or Phone Charger can do the do. I Removed all the Factory Pre-sets, And have Banks for a different main Sound, and Patches within the Bank for variations. Great for Patch Per Song, Named and Stored via ToneLib and all saved on the phone! Cracking bits of kit even now, at budget prices...

Likes an Acoustic Bass. I've got a Harley Benton HBO 850 wearing Adagio Flats... Son has a Cheapy G4M Fretless wearing those Monster Thick Rotosound Tapes.

Up Up and Away - 5th Dimension (Well, i hope you are Up before the Away!)

Slow Cooker to Dawn - The The

@80Hz Loves an SR, got several, well 7, 4 of em modded

Pics? Mounting screws still tight? I'd be sending pics to Fender asking if there was a 'Bad Batch' along with your address for them to send the free replacement.

Zoot Allures - Frank Zappa

Watching with interest... I had similar thoughts. Synth Phone App, with a Mini K'bd type thing as controller (Akai Mini thingy with a Moog App would be smashing!)

PJ Blah Blah! (Band Name right there...)
