  1. This brilliant tuner needs no introduction. Bought this from Scooby early December last year, it's fantastic but I'm short of space on my pedal board, so I'm after trading it for the mini version (version 1 or 2) or the Mooer 'baby tuner'. In great condition but very slight signs of wear. [url="http://www.tcelectronic.com/polytune-2/"]http://www.tcelectro...com/polytune-2/[/url] Have the box and manual somewhere and will include the if they turn up. Will try and take actual pictures of the unit ASAP.
  2. Very kind of you to pass this on. Willing to post?
  3. Damn, beat me to it!
  4. Gareth bought a pickup off me. Got straight in as soon as I posted it and paid very quickly after. Great comms and no messing about. Perfect.
  5. kiOgon loom + Seymour duncan SPB-1 + new rotosound strings = clarity and snarling mid. Sorted. Seriously, the SPB-1 is almost a completely different animal to the fender original. Really didn't suit the bass or me.
  6. Ended up getting one from kiogon on here, in the end. Much less hassle.
  7. ** Forwards article to rest of band **
  8. That's nice! Do you know what age the pickup is?
  9. Fender original pickups ('62 re-issue I believe). Used but not abused. £40 Delivered.

  11. Great instruments to play. Looks mint. Unusual to see chrome hardware instead of gold.
  12. Keep us informed how you get on with it, looks interesting.... Edit: ooh, 3.7kg (8.1lbs). Veeery interesting....

  14. OK, found this: [url="http://www.talkbass.com/threads/adding-a-3-way-switch-to-a-vol-vol-tone.993552/#post-14495903"]http://www.talkbass.com/threads/adding-a-3-way-switch-to-a-vol-vol-tone.993552/#post-14495903[/url] Will give it a whirl and see how I get on...
  15. As the title suggests, I'm after one of these, as most of the time I just play with the P pickup. Would like the option of just blending in a bit of the J sometimes. Not a fan of the trad jazz vol/vol/tone controls. Even with the Jazz pickup turned off, just doesn't sound the same to me. Found a fender jazz bass special wiring diagram (for the Duff McKagan bass) but that had some odd tone thing in it and I couldn't get it to work. Got most of the bits so can make it up but if anyone knows a reasonably priced / quality pre-wired one, let me know.
  16. Bought a Mooer Ensemble King (chorus pedal). Great comms and very well packaged. Thanks.
  17. Damn, that's a tempting bass.... it's a shame I have nothing approaching comparable value that I can sell.
  18. [quote name='Musky' timestamp='1415039964' post='2596012'] There's some more info on this [url="http://cms.bassplayer.com/gear/1164/tech-bench---mod-squad-potent-pot-mod/27204"]here[/url]. [/quote] 'Turd Polishing Syndrome'! Guilty..... OK, bought the 500K pot (thank you axetech) and swapped it out last night. Incidentally, tried the trad jazz vol / vol / tone in a line but even through headphones, I didn't like it. A very 'bland' tone, reminded me why I put it the toggle switch. Tried two vols through the toggle switch but didn't find and exact wiring diagram, so didn't work so reverted to what I have now but with a 500K pot. Sounded OK through the headphones but we'll see how it sounds live this weekend
  19. Yet another Sunburst/rosewood/tort combo. Have since put correct flat-top knobs and BBOT knurled bridge back on. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_07_2007/post-99-1185471916.jpg"][/url]
  20. [quote name='Musky' timestamp='1414838125' post='2593774'] Just a thought, but are you using the original pots? I've no idea of the stock ones values, but going for a 500k pot will give you a brighter tone if it's currently fitted with 250k. [/quote] Well, they're 250K tone pots, so might be worth changing them and we'll see if there's any difference. FWIW, the pots in my proper P has 250K pots as well but don't know what the resistance of the pickup is, so 250K might be well suited to it....

Think my proper P has 500K pots...
