Does anybody know where I can get a brass 5 string nut - 42x3.5x6mm - for my Yamaha BBG5?
I can find a 45mm but not the 42mm. Just get one of them and file/ grind 1.5mm off each end???

Trying out the Boss WL-20L wireless system for the first time at an outdoor gig tonight. Looking forward to seeing how it performs.

Rebuilding my pedalboard tonight. Downsizing a bit.

Is it wrong to be proud of the fact I made my drummer physically sick with the high SPL of my Trace Elliot TE1200 + Barefaced Super Twin rig? 😲

Okay, which one of you bought the FGN Jazz in Andertons last night? I was literally checking out with it in my basket at the same time! 🤣

Is anyone a La Bella string user AND use their extra-long 5 string nickel sets?
Long shot I know 😅 -
A first for me. Made myself 2 new instrument cables. Not the greatest of soldering but tidy enough for OCD 😆 I'm quite chuffed.

Excellent! I taught myself to do it during the first lockdown and found it most satisfying. Since then I've done a couple of full wiring installs to my basses, made up a load of custom patch leads for my pedal board, and changed the plugs on a couple of leads. Great fun, and the more you do it the better you get (and quikcly too)!

Just completed my first pickup and active preamp install. Pretty chuffed with myself
-
I should have taken pictures as I went!
I dropped Bartolini MK6CBC pickups and HR 5.4AP/918 preamp into a Cort SCMS. Quite a considerable upgrade to my ears, as it now has active/passive switching and also three way mid selector switch.
Once the original electrics were stripped out I added two coats of conductive paint as the (single) original coat was not applied very well. Made sure I had continuity between the pickup and preamp cavities and away I went.
Everything went in nice and easy, although there wasn't a lot of room and some of the wires were very thin so soldering was a challenge in places. It looks a bit of a mess from the picture below, but it's all in and working which is the most important thing.

Given that the year is of sentimental meaning to him, do I tell my Managing Director that the 1972 Precision he thinks he has, has actually got a 74 neck and 73 pots?🙄
