I swapped GHS 3050 Black Nylons for LaBella 1954 Oldies on my MiJ '51P & was a little worried about the pull on the neck - so much in fact I have left it D tuned (as in DGCF). It would adjust I'm pretty sure but those big old strings just feel better at the lower tension & the neck is happy. So I'd say a set of heavy LaBellas will certainly decrease if not reverse any back bow you may have, sorry don't know about any of the rounds but I'd imagine they'll help. Certainly cheaper than options 1 or 2! Cheerz, John

Well done Barney - Great gig in the sky - let us know where & when you're on. Cheerz, John

He's asking top dollar! - The neck looks 100%, but to me there's no proof the body is original at all, no marks in neck pocket? Nothing in control cavity? Nothing under pick ups? Very nice but - 'that's a big BUT', I'd expect a bit more provenance for the asking £££££. Cheerz, John

Yep it's a personal thing but don't be afraid to experiment & most important - patience. There are relatively few adjustments you can make & nothing that can't be changed back if you don't like it. Cheerz, John

That does look good & well made too!

[quote name='Fat Rich' timestamp='1317400026' post='1390430'] They have to turn both ways like on a RH instrument. I don't think I've ever tried a lefty instrument but I probably would expect the pots to turn the wrong way [/quote] Pots are easily wired whichever way you like, bit like a left handed tea cup really

Well done Flanker for getting back into the groove, it'll be worth all the hard work I'm sure, sorry I can't offer any helpful advise. Best wishes, John

[quote name='deanbean502' timestamp='1317146460' post='1387373'] For quiet a while I have been using Roundwounds usually status Hotwires but i Fancy a change can anyone recommend a good Flatwound? [/quote] GHS Precision Flatwounds = the best beat all the rest by a country mile Cheerz, John

[quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1317128183' post='1387067'] I'm waiting for an apology. [/quote] Don't hold your breath I'm not sure of the exact Paypal terminology but if [s]you[/s] I or someone paying me uses Personal Payment as Money Owed, (not Gift as mentioned), it seems to work out that neither party pays fees. Cheerz, John

I had contact by PM from a newbie with zero posts no previous at all - enquiring about my P-bass for sale. After exchanging PMs & Mark 'phoning me, we have had a superb hassle free transaction, great communications, payment exactly as & when, couriers did their bit spot on & the bass arrived this morning. It's been a real pleasure dealing with Mark, I hope to see him around on the forum soon, he's got no excuse now he's got a bass! I can highly recommend him as a great guy to deal with, a gent & true to his word. Cheerz, John

I dunno then

[quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1317070510' post='1386469'] If you use the PayPal gift function the person sending gets clobbered with the fees instead of the receiver. As far as I know there's no way of using PayPal so nobody pays any fees. [/quote] Wrong - no fees either way.

What a sales pitch "Sunn Bass Guitar Needs some TLC .. proper strings etc. but any knowleageble bass player will know they are fenders from INDIA ..late 80's / early 90's they are loved and re-setup / re - sprayed and laqaured. Well heres one to have a go at.. works and twangs like a proper spank me plank.. bass should" Had me in stiches You gotta love them Indian Fenders
