I rate Status Hot Wire Flats very highly & they must be best VFM at £20ish posted, I've just put a new set on my Roger Waters P, very happy with them. I've had them on my HW1 P for a few years now & they're nicely run in still as good as new

Fond memories of the time - especially Crystal Palace garden parties, Pink Floyd in 71 & Yes in 72, going back even further the Hyde Park free concerts

There's a big old thread about these mystery holes somewhere - I'll have a search

Looks good, no idea of the make sorry - but I could certainly make a wiring kit for it

Glad you're sorted - looks lovely

Great video/interview - I worried for your lovely P getting chucked around so much

My pleasure to start a new thread for a fine new member Andy replied to an offer I put up - a set of practically new strings - for a £5 donation to basschat. We exchanged some jolly PMs, Paypal done & the strings were sent. I added a bit to the donation & passed on to Ped, everyone's a winner. Great guy to deal with, no hesitation in recommending him to all & look forward to dealing with again. Cheerz, John

I made a vintage style P-bass wiring kit for Simon, great communications & instant payment, a real pleasure to deal with, great basschatter. Cheerz, John

I made a wiring kit for Darren's P-bass, great communication & instant payment, a real pleasure to deal with. Cheerz, John

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1412180354' post='2566543'] ... Yeah, but was it still in tune..? [size=4] [/size] [/quote]Well - it came with a key & a spanner - but it wasn't in key

I had a Fender product from Strings Direct delivered by Interlink Express, the day I ordered it, I was given a email confirmation - it would be delivered Monday, with a 'Follow my Parcel Now' link. On the delivery day, this gave me a 1 hour time slot, the driver's name & online tracking where you can watch the van/driver's progress with an updated ETA for my parcel . My delivery was number 50 on his schedule & while he was making his previous drops, 48 & 49 I could see which roads he was in - just around the corner! Brilliant! Fascinating to watch as your parcel gets closer if you've nothing better to do & yes it was delivered in perfect condition, inside the 1 hour given.

[quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1412163702' post='2566278'] John, I think it's the p/g that needs drilling. [/quote]Yes "the new p/g" needs drilling, no mention of if there's an old one though

[quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1412147842' post='2566027'] Right, just removed the tug bar from my 75 to have a look. A 3/32" drill bit is what you want. In metric I think approx .8mm [/quote]3/32" is almost 2.5mm BTW & if you want a clearance hole in the pickguard for the screw you'll probably need 3 or 3.5mm. Is the old scratch plate already drilled? Can you try a drill through the hole/s in that?

Welcome back at ya excellent to have your expertise & experience on board, I'm sure you will generate a lot more interest in your cabs. Cheerz, John

Cheerz fellaz

Hi Heket, I have arthritis that comes & goes (like it does) when it's bad it stops me playing for long if at all & 'style' goes out the window Does it matter to you if it sounds like pick playing, as long as you're happy playing what does it matter? I'm sure it's been done before

Yes I think so - it appears to come complete with Strat style knob Fender TBX Control 099-2052-000 0992052000 [b]Product Code: [/b]099-2052-000 [font="no"][size="2"][color="no"]£18.95[/color][/size][/font]
