thanks ...i never intended to have so many but my problem is i can't sell any .. i see positives in all of them ...probably getting a little out of hand to be honest ...a precision was my only bass for many years but i sold it ...i wonder if i can sneak another one in..?

ok i briefly have the whole lot out of storage together so i took a quick pic! ...so rare to have them all in one room these days on account of the wife..

maybe if i just cut so there is a small amount of silk just to hold it together ..?

ah ...ai seems to think this is a bad idea

ah ...problem is back on ...for some reason i blanked out the xl sticker and purely focused on the insert wording ...so yes i still have a problem...so can you cut down tape wounds without them unwinding?

ok ...package arrived ...all the strings are surprisingly now standard long scale not xl ...go figure ..not sure what's going on over there but i'm happy now ..i would delete this thread if i could ...maybe admin can do it for me....cheers.

i recently bought a couple of labella tape wounds strings 760n online who gave me xl length instead as they didn't have any regular scale lengths in stock. When i asked them if this was ok they just said i have to be "very careful" ?? Before i break open the string set and cut them can anyone tell me if it's possible to do this without the silken end part being totally removed thus allowing the tape covering to unravel ...this all sounds potentially a tad janky to me.

ai tech isnt quite there yet ..

do you ever get the feeling that the best bass you have ever played is whichever one is in your hands at any given moment?

the finish on this 90s stingray has seen better days but for some reason it plays better than ever.

any bands that actually push their own envelopes and develop artistically thus challenging their fan base with each new release need not worry ... ai is like the formulaic approach ...no innovation, it gets boring pretty fast.

yep ...i got that deal ... that fret kisser is such a great tool, i have used it a few times, only wish i had bought it years ago. The file is quality too.

...add hooky and severin while your at it... opening bars of israel and rock and a hard place ...less is more.

funniest part is the neck tension jibe ..
