Sold a strap to Colin. Deal was as smooth as a smooth thing and I would happily deal with him again.

[quote name='SubsonicSimpleton' timestamp='1405969536' post='2507115'] If you want a PDF that will print out to scale, then look in the attachments on the first post in this thread which has drawings for 57 and 62 variants [url="http://www.tdpri.com/forum/bass-place/178963-diy-knowledge-bass.html"]http://www.tdpri.com...ledge-bass.html[/url] [/quote] Brilliant! Thanks so much.

[quote name='tony_m' timestamp='1405959153' post='2506946'] IIRC, Guy Lewis supplied a template covering both bass and treble side fitment with his custom thumb rests / tug bars. Unfortunately it looks like I've thrown all the ones I had away, but maybe he might be able to help you out (though of course you'd probably have to buy summat off him!).

[quote name='Jono Bolton' timestamp='1405953595' post='2506870'] Is this any good to you? [url="http://www.buzzardsbass.com/parts/thumb-rests/thumbrest-template.jpg"]http://www.buzzardsb...st-template.jpg[/url] [/quote] That's the right kind of thing, thanks, but I want it for the treble (i.e. g string) side lcoation.

HALF-WOUND [font="Arial"][size="-1"]LONG SCALE[/size][/font] [font="Arial"][size="-1"]STAINLESS STEEL[/size][/font] [font="Arial"][size="-1"]45-105[/size][/font] [font="Arial"][size="-1"]Status say:[/size][/font] [i][font="Arial"][size="-1"]Half[/size][/font][font="Arial"][size="-1"]-wou[/size][/font][font="Arial"][size="-1"]nd strings start off as regular round-wound then have the outer edges of the round wrap ground down slightly. This produces a string with a smooth feel and a tone somewhere between a round-wound and flat-wound string. Ideal for a warmer tone and fretless basses to preserve the fingerboard finish.[/size][/font][/i] [font="Arial"][size="-1"]Brand new in the bag. £17 plus P&P from Status, I'd like £15 posted.[/size][/font]

And now just put a lighter gauge set on my fretted P bass. Really nice, low tension, and great tone. -

[quote name='Al Krow' timestamp='1405596490' post='2503374'] Hi walbassist - you ever been a Mesa Boogie fan? if so, how does the Demeter stack up against the M6 Carbine? They seem to be in a similar price (but obviously not the same weight!) bracket? [/quote] No idea I'm afraid, but Molan may have an idea as he also has the Demeter amp and may have tried a Mesa?

This is the non-DI version of the fabulous new Demeter [url="http://www.demeteramps.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=96"]VTBP-M-800D[/url] head. Mine is #3 off the production line, signed and numbered by James Demeter. The amp sounds fantastic, with wonderful weight to every note. It's pretty much impossible to get a bad EQ out of it. It's very clean, with loads of headroom. It throws out a ton of volume. Here's my demo video of it: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6r6Gu56bWvI[/media] The amp is in perfect condition. Mine also came with the voltage switch, which I understand is normally an optional extra . These are £1125 new in the UK. You can get this one at just over 10% off - a[b] firm £900[/b], and I will include a set of JJ valves (£25), a custom made Roqsolid cover (£27) and a lightweight padded carry bag (£18) for free. No trades thanks. Collection in NE Hampshire or Central London. Courier at extra cost.

[quote name='omikin' timestamp='1404312293' post='2491476'] I have been nervous about stringing these flats through the body. They're La Bella 760FS (45-105) but I have had flats (different ones) start to crack when they've been strung through. Anyone strung these flats through this bass? I suppose I could put the E through the bridge and the rest through the body. [/quote] La Bella make special flats specifically for through-body stringing
