Hey guys, Picked up a used Mike Dirnt P bass, lovely, currently with a tech waiting to get fully set up and serviced etc... already thinking about upgrades for it, it already has the Badass II bridge so I don't need to worry about that. I am waiting for my Hipshot Xtender to arrive for it...

I think it's the Squire models have that the star on the body. Thanks buddy!

Hey guys, Sorry to be a pain, bought a bass that I will be picking up over the weekend, to be it looks legit etc, but having seen a couple of threads about people having bad luck with second hand basses just wondering if someone could see what they think (never actually picked up a second...

Hey guys, I found a Mike Dirnt Precision bass second hand for a good price that I want to pick up but before I do I want to be safe and check the serial number out. Had a search online and can't find anything that gives me info, anyone know where I can find stuff on it, or if you guys know if...

Yep, that's the one!

My model is a blue ATK with matching headstock, if that helps.

Hey guys, Just a question out of curiosity, I'm selling my ATK300, which is more or less close to new condition, I popped it on ebay and already have a decent amount of watchers with over 5 days to go. But I got an email asking if I would set it as a buy it now for £225, as I don't see these...

So I had a play with one of these today, played the black one with the maple neck. I have to say, I was extremely impressed with the build quality of this thing, and considering the price, even more so. I've owned basses that have cost £100-200 more than this and didn't feel as nice as this...

Anyone know the Hipshot BT1 Xtenders will fit on these? I know those fit Musicmans? I would assume they do but thought I'd check. Although I wonder how they would cope with being dropped down regularly (a few times per set), lower build quality I wonder if I would be looking as poor...

The truss rod seemed to go far too often in it, and the finished chipped away really easy too! That said, I did love that bass and I regret selling it now! My jazz bass, now that's bomb proof!

One of my local music shops has a walnut sub in stock, I will head down there on Saturday and have a play around, will let you know what I think of it.

I tempted by this, UK stores are stocking it at the moment so I may go and check one out over the weekend. I did have one of the old SUB's which I loved, although never felt like the sturdiest thing in the world, but wouldn't expect that. I wonder how it would deal with being dropped into D...

Brilliant, thanks very much for your help, looking at picking one of those up but I need to have the ability to drop down to D easily, think I have my next purchase sorted. Cheers!

And just as luck has it, I get a response! I was told the BT1 is the closest match but is clover key slightly shorter. Anyone know if that will fit without drilling the headstock and without causing any problems in general?

Hi guys, I saw a thread on this some time ago but didn't find it last time I look so I thought I would see if anyone has any ideas if here. Does anyone know if there is a Hip Shot xtender that will fit the fender modern telecaster? Emailed hip shot but not had a response, any help would be...
