At my last band practice, what I thought was a broken A string on my Goth TBird turns out was actually a broken (?) saddle in the 3 point bridge. The screw and saddle are missing, may be on the floor at our jam room, I'll check this evening but in case I don't find it, are these easily replaced or do I have to replace the entire bridge?

A black 3 point? If your struggling to find one I have a nearly new bridge I could send for the cost of shipping

I would have put it the ither way around. The T-Bird has to be an IPA, a really Hoppy one. So hoppy its offensive, just the way I like em. And the EB would be an Octoberfest. :smug:

So Klondike likes beers that taste like pine needles in cough syrup. Got it! ;)

I have found that I don't like the more current IPA's compared to the ones that were out when they were a "new" style. Currently i like browns and stouts. I just tried the Founder's Sumatran Brown Ale. Just a hint of sweetness to go with its complex brown lushissniss. They also make a Russian Imperial Stout that's only available during the winter. It's glorious.

It's a DBZ Hailfire from the originator of Dean Guitars. There is a local store with a couple of the flamed maple topped/trans finished models and they are quite pretty.

Amazon.com: DBZ / Diamond Guitars HFR4FM-MTB Hailfire ST Standard 4 String Bass Guitar, Matte Black: Musical Instruments

I played an import version in Guitar Center a couple years ago. Nice bass with quality parts.

Thanks, the maple topped ones look nice too Amazon.com: DBZ / Diamond Guitars HFR4FM-TBK Hailfire FM Flame Maple 4 String Bass Guitar, Flame Trans Black: Musical Instruments

I can't find one in the UK. looks like making one as a home for those Mojo pickups might be in order, through neck, transparent red with a Satinwood fretboard, maybe even gold hardware?

Thats the Mothership, did you forget already? It was that nump on your head wasnt it?

Maybe. You can even climb into it. It's pure metal, aluminium I guess. So weird. :snaphappy:
What's a nump?
