Found some knob caps on mouser, gray is out of stock until February so I bought yellow as a proof of concept. Mouser #450-CP192

I picked one up last week, looks to be a series ii with green leds and an iec. I’m a big fan, but it currently has loud a dog and fiancé startling pop on startup that may be a deal breaker. Any thoughts? Filter caps don’t look all explody.

I am! Thanks for your advice, I’ll look into the book.

No worries, I see what your saying. May have been an aggressive pick or something that chipped it in the first place.

It could be, but the previous owner would’ve had to have had a chisel for a thumbnail which seems possible.

I’ve had this bass for about 10 years now and have always been annoyed with this hole that someone carved into the top for a thumb rest. I’m thinking of filling it and touching it up with some amber shellac to try and match the surrounding finish. Mostly looking for pointers and advice on how to...

This 400RB arrived on my doorstep from GC’s used site! So far works great, besides a few missing gray caps. Sounds excellent with my 70’s P Bass strung with GHS Boomers through a Faital loaded TL-606.

Currently: A 74’ P Bass and and a 94’ Fender MB-5.

Can any of you guys suggest a good luthier to look at the neck of my 74' Precision? The truss rod is maxed out and I would rather have someone competent look at it than just mess with it myself. Thanks, Brendan Brendan

I'm seventeen, I started playing when I was twelve. I played drums for a few years before that also.

From Henniker here! I study with Don Williams at the Concord Community Music School. The Music Mill is a great store and I usually order strings from juststrings, I should have a set coming in the afternoon. I bought my 75' Precision from Daddy's back in June and haven't put it down since.

I bought a 74' P Bass from the Manchester store last July. I have always had a good experience with them, they were always very helpful and involved with their customers.

It also looks like the Bi-sonics themselves have been modded, don't they usually have black covers between the chrome? And it also looks like he is using one of Alembics external power supplies in the third pic.

I have flats on my 74 P with a maple board, I never noticed it making a difference vs. flats on a rosewood board.
