Cool, thanks. Would it be any specific size do you know?

The ones on the bass are the new ones and the separate ones are the old. Sorry, I should've been more clear!! Thanks all. Very much appreciated.

Hi all, I had to have the pots changed on my P bass but the original knobs won't fit, so the tech put some new ones on. They're slightly different, smaller and more rounded and I don't like them! Is there anywhere I can get original looking ones that will fit? How will I know they'll fit until I try them? May sound really petty but just feel these new ones spoil the look. Thanks in advance, Dave.

Hi all, I've had a 7 Pro for a few years. It has failed on me 3 times, costing rough £200 a time to repair, taking its total cost up to roughly £1000. It has been at the repair shop for a year now and they've told me they will install a complete new revised board for £200, making it as new and totally reliable. As this is the 4th times it's needed repairing, would you go for that or just scrap it? Can't decide what to do!!! Thanks for any help!

You can get a good used valve head for that price if you look hard enough. I got my 2 Pro for around that price point and it's perfect!

Hi all, I have this bass and absolutely adore it. The play-ability is amazing, it looks cool as and the tone is to die for. My only issue is, the notes are less powerful past the 12th fret. It doesn't seem to have the same heft as my P basses up the dusty end. Is this a jazz bass thing? Any advice on how to improve or compensate for it? Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks, Dave.

Hi all, does anyone know where I can get one from please? Thanks, Dave.

Hi all, I sprayed my red bass white but have (possible stupidly) used cheap rattle cans from Wilko. It's all white now, after lots of coats of primer, gloss and lacquer, looks great but doesn't feel solid enough. Putting the pickups back in again yesterday, I lightly scraped a screwdriver on the body and it's left a big rip! So, what do I do now? Sand it back and start again or just find a decent lacquer to seal over the top of the current paint? Thanks in advance for any help, Dave.

Hi all, I have a Precision in Fiesta Red that I want to spray white. Do I just remove the electronics and spray it over the current finish? Sorry if this sounds idiotic but I've never done it before. Any tips greatly appreciated!!

Hi all, I owned two 2 pros but always found them way too heavy and impractical. I now own a 3 and 7 pro and as much as I like them, I often hear old recordings of my 2 pro and wish I had another one. I always knew it would be a compromise but am wondering how much of one. Any thoughts please? Or has anyone A/B'd both amps? Are they that much better that it's worth the almost two man lift?!! Thanks in advance, Dave.

How much better would you say the 2 is than the 3? I had a 2 and loved it, now I have a 7 and a 3. I often fantasize about getting another 2, but remember the weight and the cost of valve replacement kits!!

I had an SVT 2 Pro, and although it sounded amazing, it was just too heavy to justify. I now have a 3 and 7 pro and although they're not as good, they're more than good enough. The 2 Pro gave me a hernia whilst lifting it into my car, seriously!! I've just concluded that these amps suit touring players who have roadies. When I listen to live recording of me playing through that amp, I often wish I'd never sold it. They are that good, but the weight is honestly ridiculous, like almost a 2 man lift!!
