This thread has made me pull my finger out and put the electronics back in my cheap Dean Edge.
I need a bass to leave down the rehearsal room, this on is the cheapest one I own so it's my project bass. But it's been unplayable for 2 years!

First photo is of a bass body, but all the others are of another neck, also badged "Fender". The plot thickens.

Badged Fender Stratocaster, to be precise

You think Dave will paint it black on request? (hate those finishes)

If you tell him when you order you can change the paint to a certain degree,
I play in a punk-ish band and did a gig with a fretless. Sounded great, didn't use a plectrum either.
If you want to do it then do it. Sod everyone who says not to.

Hello Jackers...which software do I need to read your PDF, my PC doesn't seem to like it?!

Yeh, saw that at the cinema. One of my favourite cinema moments.

Same here. Saw it in a tiny place. Walked out feeling like I'd been to a gig!

He's really good at skateboarding too! There's a great piece on Youtube of him helping build skateparks in poor areas of the USA for underprivileged towns to use. Supported by Vans shoes.

There's a few bits of him carving around concrete parks on PJ20

I love working on veroboard but you do have to be careful with your cuts, avoid solder bridges and make sure you place the components are in the right place (believe me, this happens all too often).
A great website for vero layouts is [url="http://tagboardeffects.blogspot.co.uk/"]http://tagboardeffects.blogspot.co.uk/[/url]

The Fishman unit looks very nice, but it's seriously pricey.
I remain baffled that they never re-introduced the Unibass.

Or the Deep Impact or that Shred-o-Graphic/G-Drive

Throw in the odd 5th and its every bass line I have ever played/written

You too huh?
I've had a set of DR Neons on my Stingray since January and they've still got a bit of brightness left. They must have over 100 hours of playing on them.

aaaah ! Close but no cigar. What's your band's name ?
[/quote]
Hobgoblin.
By the time the gig arrived the poster was wrong. There was only us, The Vile and GBH left.
[quote name='WHUFC BASS' timestamp='1341345101' post='1717537']
Bloody 'ell mate, do you play bass for GBH ?
[/quote]
No... But it's a poster with my band's name on it
