Turned out to be the M8 x .75. Musiclily Basic Metric M8 Guitar Pots Hex Nuts for 24mm Large Metric Potentiometers, Nickel (Set of 10)

7107289 Korea I didn't see your reply until now. Thanks.

While copper shielding against RF, two of the potentiometer nuts just fell apart. Google says most basses use either M8 x .75 or 3/8-32 pot nuts. These are not a 3/8" American, so probably M8... 11mm socket fits. Google also says about modern-production Asian instruments: Washburn bass...

I'm a life-long acoustic guitarist (and decent aspirant bassist) and like you, I mute individual strings while playing fingerstyle on guitar without actually knowing how I do it. Only one way to get there; as you say, muscle memory (and some sort of latent understanding/awareness...). I need...

Thank you, Matt! I greatly appreciate clues on how to record and mix for this kind of result. Too good.

John, I appreciate your keen eye. Went back and read through the comments under the YouTube video, and sure enough, there was a comment by Jack Trowbridge's niece. See attached image below. Thanks for the assist.

This might be TalkBass BLASPHEMY, but I'll bet I can make my P-bass sound similar applying amp simulator and EQ. If Jack really did use a pick, THAT is something I'll have to work on in real/analog terms. I appreciate your opinions on both the instrument and the method of playing.

I'll bet "Ohio Jack Trowbridge" is our man, based on the reasoning in my reply to your other post. Thanks.

Thanks, Peteyboy! =D I'll bet THAT IS our Jack Trowbridge. In searching for him I found a few mentions of the Color Me Gone guitarist, George Cabaniss (RIP). The band was part of the Athens, GA sound but George C. got around. He played with other bands in far flung states, so it wouldn't...

YES! And thank you, Dan, for your analysis of the tone. Could you elaborate on HOW John Taylor would mute something like this. Left hand? Right hand? Muting material at the bridge or nut? Muting is something I sometimes can do, and sometimes...not so much. I would love to better...

I'm very interested in knowing WHAT about this performance/tone leads you to think "split coil configuration." I have never found tone for myself that really satisfies me. So I would really like to know what you heard.

I've never seen your rant, but it sounds like we're aligned in our "regard" for AI. Garbage In. Garbage Out. And there you have it. Another fine example of "AI at its best." =D My older brother, Rus, clued me in to the two songs/bands mentioned here, and to lots of other exciting...

It's 2:30am where I am, but before I toddle off, I want to show you guys the result of the Google search I just did. Noted, it's an "AI Overview" and we all know how inaccurate those can be, but I searched on, "did most punk bass players use a pick" and received the following: While not every...

FAST fingers! Dexterity and Talent to burn. Yeah, it's those growling slides that make me think fretless. But there's a lot happening in the mix, so it's hard to say... Man, there was some amazing music happening in the early 1980s. =D

Amen. You're probably right, but I'm wondering if he might have used a thick felt pick. I have a few, but have never tried them. Now I will. I just can't imagine how he could play some of those divided notes so fast without a pick... =O Probably right again. I hope it's a PBass; I have...
