If you look carefully over the fence you can see me trying to hide from view waiting for you to leave this thing of great beauty unattended for a minute.
Very nice indeed
Well my Warmoth bits arrived at East Mids airport yesterday, and were promptly flown back to the States!!!
They are now coming over again, well that's what UPS assure me.
Just to add that my Multicomp is a new one so I don't think its a related issue. Basically if I leave it on overnight it results in a flat battery in the morning
Well the thing is I didn't rest my thumb on the cover anyway. I used the front pickguard for the E string and then go down the strings with my thumb. That position was tonally too near the neck. I'm now playing where the cover was and using the new perspex cover to reat the thumb on.
The tone is definately better to me there.
I'm not removing the cover from either my Chris Squire or my C64S though although this bass is crying out for flatwounds, they sound amazing on the C64S.
I've got home today and my Ric 'Pickguardian' pickup cover has arrived so I've spent a while fitted it and the Hipshot bridge as well. I bought the bridge recently from Jon (Bassasin) and have been waiting for the cover to turn up from the States for a while.
The bridge is a very solid piece of chromed brass weighing in at 630g as opposed to the Ric bridge at 313g!
I can actually adjust the intonation now
The removal of the bridge pickup cover does obviously give greater access but at the expense of a great big hole around the pickup. The Pickguardian sorts it nicely.
All completely reversable too.
So all set up and playing very well here she is:
Just checking on the meaning here, a bit like the only one in class asking the question I hope.
Unity gain, do you mean restoring the volume in for out after compression?

Here's a link to the Waterstone Guitars site. It's worth a look. Expensive I suspect, very nice though, a black Indra, now that would look good.

St Anne's Alan, on the West coast. I'm assuming that's Lytham St Annes.
I've never been there but it's close will be a new experience. Not really been to Blackpool come to that, or Morercambe
Hmmmm...

A Ric, either 4003 or 4001C64S
Something older when I've had a think.
Hopefully I can use someone elses gear as it seems pointless bring another amp/cab.

Okay Steve, accepted.
BUT, which one of your basses would you part with?

If the NW mini bash comes to fruition I thought I'd bring along my Villex/Villex Bob Glaub
By nice to see how it compares with the DS.
