  1. Hello mate, He definitely wasn't paid to say that, I've only just seen this! Anyway, thanks so much for the kind words, and spending the time to really give my basses a good play. It's always nice to hear players feedback, especially when it's as positive as this. Makes all the hours planning and testing really worth it! All builds are on the website now, with new pro photos. Thanks again, and it was great to meet you. Adam from Dolan Custom Guitars
  2. [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Hello,[/font][/size] [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]I got this a while ago, but I don't really use much it any more, so thought i'd move it on. [/font][/size][size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]It's a great pedal and built well for the price. Sound wise it does what is says on the tin really.

  3. Got a PedalTrain from him, and it was an easy transaction, and exactly as described. Top bloke!
  4. Got a Helix Phaser Pedal from him. Nice bloke, and got it in the post quick! Thanks mate!
  5. Got a Fairfield Compressor pedal from him. Great guy, and easy transaction.
  6. I'd really like one of these, but I've already got 3 pedals this month!
  7. These are great pedals! I also spoke to Cog recently about a Star Wars etched design and they no longer do them, so this is probably one of very few Star Wars pedals they did! Good luck
  8. I don't use this so thought someone else might want it. Fully working, but no box or instructions. It's so simple, just download the app, plug and play.

  9. I love the look of these! I've just spent too much on gear this month. But it's my birthday next week so maybe il get some spending money!

  11. Her's a closer look at that Ash and the wenge cover for Plunger! Stainless Steel frets installed. Take ages to install especially when you want to de-tang them just so you can fill the edges in with wood and glue to hide them! A little pointless, but it's definitely the little things that make a great guitar! Neck pocket routed! The standard look how good my neck pocket is photo! Now that the neck pocket is in I can locate and position the bridge then the pickup cavities! Oh and i managed to get the neck holes drilled and the inserts in. I much prefer the bolt system to a standard wood screw, much better contact between neck and body and won't wear out if the neck comes off and on a lot. Not that it should need to!
  12. [quote name='White Cloud' timestamp='1481981208' post='3196733'] This is a really nice build... [/quote][quote name='PlungerModerno' timestamp='1481986800' post='3196793'] +1 Very nice piece of ash used in that body. [/quote] Thank you, Yea I really like this piece of wood.
  13. [quote name='W1_Pro' timestamp='1481839295' post='3195665'] That is a lovely looking bass, even at this early stage. The honey maple is glorious. Is the body unusually deep? I only ask because it looks like there is a lot of headroom in the control cavity! [/quote] Thanks for the kind words, and yea I love that maple! It's a normal 44mm body thickness and i've left about 6-7mm, so yea quite a bit of headroom I suppose, this is mainly because the cavity cover is about 10mm with a copper plate glued to it for stability and shielding.
  14. I will never use normal side dots again.... Took a bit of time but managed to get the control cavity mapped out and routed. There's a lot to get in there, and didn't want a huge cavity. I've also made it so I have room if I want to install CTS pots on a new build. The headstock is all routed out and the volute is definitely starting to look a lot cleaner. I also realised that i didn't take any photos of the neck carving....well here it is mostly finished! And finally with tuners installed! [/url] Also just about managed to get the control cover made. I couldn't think of what to make this cover from for aged and then my now fiencee said well you've used wenge in the accent line and in the neck, why not use wenge? I really don't know why i never thought of that!? And lastly for now...I got the belly contour roughed out. hand carving is the best bit of building! That's all for now....
  15. [quote name='Andyjr1515' timestamp='1481707773' post='3194372'] It's progressing well. I always make a mental tick when other builders describe a technique and I can think "yes...I do that too!" Example, clamping the fretboard at the sides and not the middle.... [/quote] Thanks! Yea I do that all the time [quote name='HowieBass' timestamp='1481710474' post='3194392'] Great seeing how creative some of you clever BCers are! [/quote] Thank you!
  16. Birdseye maple fingerboard was slotted with a jig Here are the parts put together, started to see what it will look like now.... I love the contrast between the normal maple and roasted maple As promised truss duel action truss rod channel has been routed to depth and cut out wider parts with a chisel. No need to glue in truss rod, just held in place with silicone sealer! I didn't get a photo of the fretboard gluing, but I used a caul that only put pressure on the outer edges to help prevent glue in the truss rod which would be a disaster! Fretboard radius is 10" and done with a mixture of a levelling beam and a radius block, making sure to check each edge is the same thickness and is being radius'd evenly. Oh and lastly, I made a little progress on the volute! More coming soon...
  17. [quote name='Daz39' timestamp='1481413906' post='3192201'] Cool! [/quote] Thanks mate, Uploading some photos now, so will have an update soon.
  18. I shouldn't have stopped posting on this...shame on me! I will be uploading some more photos very soon so keep your eye's peeled!
  19. Hello, I've had this for a while and had intended to do something with it, but never got round to its so thought i'd move it on. It's in great condition so almost new. I've fit to a guitarbuild.co.uk P bass body I had a while ago and seemed to be a fairly standard fit, but cant guarantee it. It's got 4 control holes so worth checking you have space for the extra pots or routing will be needed. Any other questions, let me know.
