Did you put new pickups in it in the end? I put some GM Thumpers in my black one, as I read that Alinco should be more 'vintage' sounding (although I dont know my @rmpit from my elbow really)

Thanks! I will get them next time round, I already just got some that were sold as 6 mm but were nearer 5. I got a few packets and some were good

Hi, whilst I am back in the UK I am trying to source decent BLACK (forgot to put into title) pick-guard screws for my Sires. They are (measured with a tape measure and eye, so not 100% accurate but pretty damn close) 3 mm thread diam, 12 mm long (10 mm thread), and the raised countersunk Phillips cross heads are 5 mm diameter (NOT 6 mm) I have been searching for ages today and just cant find any with that diameter head (they are all 6 mm) Are these smaller head ones to ISO standards, and not BS or DIN? https://upmold.com/wp-content/uploads/Data-center/screw-technical-data-sheet.pdf Are these gage 4 self tappers? Can anyone make me feel daft, and direct me to a good source? Please! Thank you for your patience

There is this topic. I want one. Dont need one tho

Thanks! have also ordered a 'Simonon' skull and crossbones sticker from AxetremeCreations. This is how it will look, if it gets too worn (which I would like anyway) I ordered 2 stickers. I didnt like it where he had it on THAT bass of his that the splatter on mine was inspired by I also put on the Rotosound Jazz Bass 77 Monel Flats, love 'em!

I LOVE it! Photos are under artificial lighting - the Emerald Green is so much more GREEN in reality

I noticed that if I touch the poles of the top/neck side split pickup it buzzes, more so when my finger not also grounding onto a string Bottom/bridge side split pickup does not Any ideas, please? I dont think my wiring is wrong (both were already wired together when I got them), and I am used to soldering I seem to remember seeing that this meant that poles were not grounded? But not sure it makes sense why one split is OK, other not

Green Pearl is so Lairy in a seedy type of way that it is even Leary Sorry!

That was from Ali-E This is the Black North Guitars one Pollocked by my arty mate with one-shot Green Emerald Signwriter's Enamel (from Handover Ltd) Inspired by Simonon Still drying I also got a three ply B/W/B and a transparent one from Ali-E I can change pickguards more than I change my pants now It's so good to be able to say pants without having to explain 'not trousers'

It fitted a treat! As did the Ali-Express ones I got as well

Thanks @neepheid That's what I did, sounds great well, until I try to play it 😀

Hi I am putting some GM Thumpers in my new Squier Sonic P-Bass I was just going to solder like wires for like but the wiring of the new Pups is slightly different (see photo) White instead of yellow, but mostly its the wires to solder come out of top not bottom of respective pups I am guessing its just a matter of symmetry (out of phase still?) and it will just be black to where black was and white to where white was? Also, which pup in photo goes neck end and which bridge end? EDIT: I think that I should just solder the white where the yellow was and the black where the black was, and put the pup with the white wire at the neck? Thanks

Hi I have got myself a Black Squier Sonic P to keep at mum's in Essex for use when I'm back home visiting her I'm going to paint it and put a new black pick guard on it, but am not in UK so cant measure it This generic P bass one is from Northwest Guitars https://northwestguitars.co.uk/collections/precision-bass-pickguards/products/precision-bass-compatible-scratchplate-black-1-ply Anyone have a sonic P to hand to see if it might fit? Doesn't have to be exact Thankee
