    NBD! Wal-inspired Anka Custom

    I'll definitely let you know. I'm so looking forward to working with Dany. I love him already. I'm fairly new to TX, been here 3 years. I'm in Brenham. We're fixing up our old farm house and I have no time to play out yet, but I hope to some day. I was a full-timer in my yute. I miss it.

    NBD! Wal-inspired Anka Custom

    Thank you for posting! This one spoke to me. Wal is a major bucket list bass for me, but two things have gotten in the way. Cost and aesthetics. Dany's shop is just an hour from me and I'd already been watching his videos, so I was planning on contacting him anyway. I saw your bass and I...

    Fretboard dyeing?

    I've had at least 30 basses and only a few had fretboards that were "sealed". Those were mostly maple. That's why they make fretboard oil.

    Winter Build Off 2024 - Best Bass For Sound Experiments

    I'm super interested in this bass. I hope there will be a video to further explain some of the unique features. Seems like sound bite could require a whole web site!

    Brutal beauty: 2011 Bob Mick bolt-on bass with Sullivan Music Equipment and Audere Audio electronics

    I'll try to do that once I get more settled. We recently moved across the country and most of my stuff is still in storage. I haven't even play the bass through a proper amp yet...just headphones. I should also mention that another major reason I pulled the trigger on an instrument that I knew...

    Brutal beauty: 2011 Bob Mick bolt-on bass with Sullivan Music Equipment and Audere Audio electronics

    I love the bass! It's as fun to look at as it is to play. I'm finally learning the Pino riffs that I've loved since the 80's! I'm fairly certain that this is one of those basses that I won't be selling.

    Brutal beauty: 2011 Bob Mick bolt-on bass with Sullivan Music Equipment and Audere Audio electronics

    I'm late to this party, but this post made me decide to buy a Bob Mick bass that I found online at Fret Nation. I'm 59 and have never spent enough time to properly learn to play fretless. I needed a cool bass for inspiration. I've been looking at hundreds of fretless basses online. When this...

    Looking for experience: SquarePlug SP400 vs Rean RP2RCF

    Thank you so much for this! I have a fully loaded ES-8 and was going down the exact same path as you. I probably would have let cost drive me to buying the wrong connectors. This post saved me.

    Where to put new switches? Please answer my poll - thanks!

    I have a bass set up like #1 and it works well for me. I wouldn't change it on my bass.

    Dingwall 3 pickup 6 way rotary selector wiring - need help

    I got a schematic from Free-Way and have ordered the 3x3-05. Thanks again for the steer.

    Dingwall 3 pickup 6 way rotary selector wiring - need help

    I'm really curious about the Freeway switch now. I briefly had a Dingwall with a rotary switch and found it a bit cumbersome. I'm going to research these guys. I'm assuming that the switch allows for series and parallel pickup combinations. I had seen these before but dismissed them because...

    Dingwall 3 pickup 6 way rotary selector wiring - need help

    OK...after staring at this stuff for a while, I think I get it. Nevermind.

    Dingwall 3 pickup 6 way rotary selector wiring - need help

    Also, it seems that if I only want parallel configs, I'd only need a 2 pole switch. It seems like I should just draw up what I think would work then let you folks tell me if I'm right or wrong. I'll try to muster up a drawing.

    Dingwall 3 pickup 6 way rotary selector wiring - need help

    I've been searching this site and the interwebs in general to get a grip on wiring up a 6 way 4 pole rotary switch for (3)x pickup selection. I think that I can come up with something that will work, but I'd sure like to find a wiring schematic to get me started. I've seen a few that I...
