If there's anything of special interest to anyone in my signature - I'll try & bring it along, I don't think there's anything special there - but otherwise I thought I would just bring a few examples of my wiring kits

The Bass Doc - on here may be able to help you out, drop him a PM

Hi Matt, Those CTS pots are the same that Fender use in their USA range basses so no point in changing them - assuming those you have are the same value - 250Kohms. That cap is a 0.1 Sprague which will certainly give you the fat dark tone when the tone pot is rolled back, shouldn't make it muddy though, you could do far more with your amp EQ settings than changing anything in your bass, although of course different pick up have different frequency outputs. Cheerz, John

Steve asked me to make a wiring kit for his old Westone revival project - great comms. & instant payment - a real pleasure to deal with. Cheerz, John

I wish I could work out how to do that with dropbox too

Get on the 'phone tomorrow to Ashdown technical, they'll sort you out without a doubt, probably be Dave or Mark - 2 nicer more knowledgeable about amps blokes you'll never meet

Yep 31st is good for me

Yes I'd love to - if it's a disabled friendly environment so I can get in on my scooter. Legs are not good these days but you don't play with legs do ya!

Gutted - I was expecting a studio monitor with a 21" speaker in it

May I refer you to my reply in your previous thread; http://basschat.co.uk/topic/237463-jazz-bartolinis/page__fromsearch__1 Have you tried swapping the wires from one pick up?

A picture is worth a thousand words - can you put up a picture of your pots, wiring etc? Have you tried swapping polarity on one pick up?

I love to say - "told you so" - Congratulations

If it was only the alignment of the strings equally on the neck that was the problem, the first thing I would suspect would be the neck had received a jolt during shipping. Even a very good neck/pocket fit can be nudged out of alignment quite easily. I would have slackened the strings then slackened the neck bolts & 'got a feel' for where the neck wanted to sit in the body. Then tightened the lot up & checked again, if it's wrong it always will be but chances are things would have seated themselves in the right place for the sake of 5 minutes with a screwdriver. Easier than sending it back

I've had these on my amp for a long time, some of the segments have died as you can see - but it's the best way I know of reminding self to turn amp off after use! https://www.dropbox.com/s/mtzxs1akm3uhlxf/2014-05-20%2014.24.18.jpg

I have a couple of the American Vintage Re-issue P's a '57 & '62, both different, the '57 is Ash body & one piece Maple neck, the '62 Alder & Maple/Rosewood neck. I use GHS Precision flats 50-105 on both, they both have that early P tone & flavour in bucket loads. If the originals are out of your budget, I would suggest trying the AV series, especially used examples - which come up at very good prices - sometimes

Timmy - is that you? https://www.dropbox.com/s/7ocaui51g6l5367/timmyandpinky.jpg

I used to use a Logarthym - http://www.log-jam.co.uk/ - but I'm alright now they're OK & should fit in with your requirement.

Contact adhesive like EvoStick I reckon carpet glue might do

I heard it first on Radio 2 this morning - [url="http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/news/metallica-to-headline-glastonbury-festival-9341315.html"]http://www.independe...al-9341315.html[/url]

Easy fix - a strip of black sticky tape over the top - will smooth out the bumps & you can replace it as often as you like.

I thought you had some plastic in mind for the job! Something like this would do:- [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BLACK-962-GLOSS-FINISH-ACRYLIC-PLASTIC-SHEET-CAST-PERSPEX-3-SHEETS-80MM-X-135MM-/201085765858?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item2ed1a548e2"]http://www.ebay.co.u...=item2ed1a548e2 [/url] How thick do you need?

The £200 dearer one has the intonation set better

I reckon that would be fine - easier than changing the whole pick up like I did for the same reason on my AV'57 Edit: BTW The sticking up bits are pole pieces not pots
