  1. Sounds(!) familiar... (still needs lookin at)
  2. Can't see the Pic mate? 😉 Jane i think... Similar story with replacement White Knobs for my MB Series Combo... A*
  3. Aha! @mrbacco before you make the hole for the Jack 'Boat' in the front... have a think about having it fitted to the control cavity plate at the rear... plug could Angle Out and Downwards 45Deg-ish or out to the but or strap pin.. and not get in the way... sleek as sleek thing! 😉
  4. Could it be so Flat heel 51 necks and Rounded Heel later necks both fit the same pocket rout... With the scratchplate covering either the middle or the L&R edges?
  5. Didn't bother... un-soldered the cap a pliered/shook it thru the hole.. Soldered the new cap on the underneath of the board... loads of room... 🙂
  6. So you have had the Tort plate off a couple of times, and not replaced it? 😉
  7. ...and? Pic of the article? It's a Basschat house rule...
  8. No... but look intriguing especially for the £... plus options they offer. The noise cancel may be a winner in a studio or of ya like things brighter I'd contact em direct and see whats what.
  9. Lightweight and Portable Ampeg, DI out, Cheap... Behringer BDI21, Zoom B1 On ( or Four)
  10. I'd go Med/Fine Sanding Sponge... Fine Sanding Sponge... I've also used Halfords Bodywork Sponges. Steady Eddie otherwise you get a 'Scallop' as well as a 'Rolled' edge... But a bit of the both looks kinda nice. Then on to the nail blocks... got a load from Aliexpress... great for a fretboard and fret clean. Also used to knock-off a sticky glossy neck, and great with wax on a wood body.
  11. Bloodstone? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/166394234237 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/164244335726
  12. Kent Armstong Vintage Alnico V 5's at £67 a pop... I'd drop em a line see if they have any B stock or discount... Try 'em @ £100 the pair... Ha! - or Wilkinson Alnico V at half the price. Why not adsemble a replacement bell plate with VBT loom and a Pure Tone Jack? Got KA Vintage 4's in my J -PJ Custom Bitsa... Aria J RHesq J-PJ Entwistles... Need a pic if yours - dem da rules
  13. Great intro post... welcome. 40 ya say... nearest anyone on here gets to 40 is a speed limit! Looking at the Basses, You clearly Know ya Onions... More Pics Please! (There is a Build Diary thread if you have any old pics of when you put em together)
  14. Luverly take on a Compensated Bridge Saddle Blade... Shorter Screws for Intonation and Height... I'd hack saw 5mm or so off, or replacements from somewhere like Spaldings Fasteners on the 'bay - I use em for A2 Stainless Grub Screws for bridge saddles.
  15. Hard to cut the inside hole neat... which is why the pre-cut packing foam was ideal...
  16. Just a little tidy up rubber bung for spare no longer used control holes. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285510757363 A=8.5mm
  17. @TheGreek thanks for responding... The packing foam sponge from a pair of Jazz Pickups... I can cut into 2 to make a foam sponge surround for each pickup in the existing Soap Bar Cavity of my SR400/DiMarzio. Here is the Red Fender Foam in my SR300/Maida Vale Protect the wires and keep the dust and crud out. Just an easy finishing touch. Thanks for looking...
