  1. Leave them in an old mug, with some cola (enough to cover) over night, and wash off next morning.
  2. For the past 18 months I've been seeing more and more developed AI being used across the Creative sectors, as well many others. With Chatgpt and the likes, it occurs to me it won't be too long before an AI generated pop song will top the charts, which'll no doubt open the flood gates to further AI hits. And an AI hit factory. This will inevitably lead to songwriters becoming obsolete, with AI writing pop hits in seconds. I know this is being developed and has been worked on for a while, but I believe its only time before the songwriter will become a dead art, surpassed by AI. Fortunately live artists and bands will remain, including the low end folk. Although having said that the digital ABBA gigs leaves food for thought. 🫢
  3. You adjust the pickups height to whatever sounds best to you. The Fender measurements are purely a guide, don't get that mixed up with fact! So set the pickups fairly low and raise each in turn to whatever sounds best to you. You'll know if you've gone too high as the sound will start to wobble, then screw back down a little. Strings, pickups, neck wood etc all plays a part, so tune it to whats best to your own ears.
  4. For sale (no trades sorry) is a 1999 Yamaha BB N4iii in red, made in Taiwan. SOLD.
  5. ************************** Postage Available ************************** For sale (no trades sorry) is a roadworn bitsa Precision with high output Seymour Duncan "BassLines" Quarter Pound pickup. Standard 34" scale. The bass has a resonant (Made in Japan) solid maple body with walnut stripe, vintage high mass bridge, the control cavity is copper shielded with Ki0gon electrics. Samick (Made in Korean) neck, with a dark rosewood slab fretboard which was recently lemon oiled, and lightweight Gotoh tuners. The bass balances very well, no neck dive. Weighs 7.9 lbs, and slim 40mm nut. Now £195 + Postage.
  6. Cut up something like a business card, put a small piece at each end underneath the pickup covers. It'll raise the plastic cover enough to level the poles. Also, in 2015 there was no Fender Player, it was Standard then!
  7. This. You'll have to message the guy fast. Its lightweight, PJ pickups so good variety in tones available, and cheap... only it is active, so will need a battery added to play amplified, but perfect to begin or learn on accoustically.
  8. Leo Quan Badass II bass bridge in chrome, made in USA, factory pre-slotted. £70 + Postage.
  9. M3... https://www.zero-mod.com/mustang.html
  10. LaBella Low Tension LTF-4A Flatwounds 42-100 gauge. Fitted to standard Fender Precision (top loading) for no more than 1-2 weeks, so are almost like new. Comes in original packaging. Now £35 + Postage.
  11. The angles of knobs is also another clue, although its more difficult to tell on active basses.
