Maybe there’s something wrong with the pickup selector switch? I had the same problem.

I meant Laney LA30BL, not Ashdown LB30

Has anyone tried the new Laney LA30BL? It’s a guitar amp, but it’s supposedly made after a head which both Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler used in early Black Sabbath days. It should sound great with bass.

1200 miles to get my Rick.

Should I put a few drops like inside the rod? I’m not sure where the nut on the rod is.

You sure? I can’t even imagine it could be possible since I’m the first person to turn it...

Seized. It feels like it’s either stuck or maxed out.

What to do if one of the truss rods doesn't tighten?

I’ll try to post one tomorrow. It’s a really small bubble, but it is a bubble. I tried scraping it off with a cloth in a hope that it was a piece of dirt. Boy was I wrong… About the discount: it was a partial refund, and I can return it to him and ask for my money back. I accepted the refund...

Nicely done! Is it a Ric or did you build it yourself?

Also, I accepted the discount for bubbles around the bridge, and not for fretboard finish flaws and bubbles around treble pickup assembly.

It’s not a wood problem, it’s a finish problem. Why doesn’t poly on fenders bubble?

Do you know if Hipshot bridge is larger that the original? I could hide the bubbles behind it...

Not in Europe, unfortunately. I’ve got this bass with a 10% discount (made after the first bubbles appeared). I could send it back to the seller, as I still have my legal warranty, but I really don’t want to leave the seller in the red, he’s a nice guy. If I knew that he would get money back...

I’m so done with Rickenbackers. Not only the finish is bubbling near the tailpice, it’s now also lifting around the bridge pickup assembly and around frets...
