Well…after a bit of tidying up, it’s all together - last job is to solder and guess who’s lent out the soldering iron 🙄🤬

watching too…it wasn’t good that was it?!

Bit too much IPA in the blood to start tonight. but…lovely @Machines sent me a Mexican Standard Fender P pickup he had spare. so I’m going to give it a go. Done the approximate groundwork for tomorrow morning’s episode of “woodwork with a brew”.

Emerald Guitars - Flow Bass, 5 String Electric Bass https://reverb.com/item/2217739-emerald-guitars-flow-bass-5-string-electric-bass?utm_source=rev-ios-app&utm_medium=ios-share&utm_campaign=listing&utm_content=2217739

The model was called the “flow”

Emerald did do electrics…seem to have stopped - wonder if they still offer them? might be worth an E-Mail?

Ah ok. Did I not see Alusonic using Carbon Fibre? Mightve only been wrap/front panel.

In and out in 2022 Musicman Classic Sabre Sledge Fender classic 50’s Precision Musicman stingray 5 teal Musicman stingray 5 red Musicman Bongo HH Ken Smith Burner In Fender Blacktop Precision Out Yamaha BB1600 (bloody regrettable) not as many as I’d thought to be fair. The 1600 will never be forgiven…

Jesus. No chance. No clue. Can’t remember what’s been and gone.

Hmm. It’s good - but I wonder if that traditional split P might add in a little warmth

Derail away!

Maybe - @Machineshas a spare P pickup from a mexi standard - he’s hopefully offering it up. If the general sound Is working - I will invest.

Well…the “P” sound I desire isn’t as “P-y” as I’d like… so, I might give it a go. if it’s not right, I’ll keep the plate and pickup and I can return it to stock pickup/body.

Now then… spanner in the works… traditional P in the middle?

“God is a dj” at v2001, it had been coming down in sheets. Just as he’s delivering the monologue “this is where I come to heal my hurts - tonight, god is a Dj…” The clouds parted behind the stage and the sun came out. Mental. Indulged a bit too much that weekend. I remember booing Texas from a hill while muse were tossing each other off over plug in baby… saw them at a few festivals and at Manchester Arena… they were ace - he was so charismatic and loved his lyrics… damn time.

Looks loads better than it did…

And…done: some minor tweaks but seems pretty good. Id played it a fair bit with the 60’s reissue neck on it, but this looks better:

Bought this about a both ago…cash converters. Had an unoriginal neck. It was lovely…but then spotted a nice 70s Reissue P neck. Game on!

No. I’m skint due to Christmas x

It’s a great price if it stays like that oh wow BIN. almost feels like an instruction

Bought a Star Wars helmet from me - because that’s what Basschat is all about. As explained above - Brian is a true gent x

Bought a Ken Smith Burner from me - Absolute gent. thanks again x

Yeah - it’s been a while - but rang a visual bell…close but no cigar.
