I'll be good with whatever is on whatever basses.
But this time, i'd like to give your VP with flats a go.
You told me what's on it, i just don't remember.

Man I have no idea what you just said.
There will be two VPs with SIT Power Flats. A stock VP and Will's that I am modifying with Seymour Duncan Custom Shop pickups with the bridge pickup in the '64 position.
But your fingers willFlats shall not touch basses of mine, good sir!
Once again, my thanks to Jeff for turning me on to EBCFs. I'm currently running set 2814(45/65/80/100)on the 67 NR. Really liking them. Prolly get another set-in a coupla years when the SIT Power Flats wear out-for the Embassy.
Kinda the same ole broken record.
They are the closest string to sound like rounds.
They don't eat frets, And they last, for me anyway.
And depending on break in time, they don't go totally dead.
And i use their lightest gauge Donnie 40-95.
It's that, ymmv thing.
Each of my(5)basses has its own dedicated strap.All my straps are Dunlop equipped. Standardization is key to OCD
Provibe sounds like a different kind of product.
What kind/flavor of dip does one use with those chips?
Catsup, mayo, or mustard...depends on the country. Oh, you meant crisps.What kind/flavor of dip does one use with those chips?

Clean solder job.visit with the customer today...rework lady flaked yesterday
The one I have loose is 9.84K, the one in a bass measures 8.16K at the jack. And Gibsons are 8.2K hmmm...
About a year ago there was a Thunderbird pickup on eBay described as being from a new NR. Looking at the pictures, I couldn't determine that it wasn't a ChinaBucker.
The boxes my Tbird Reissue pickups came in say they are handcrafted in Nashville. It could be that Gibson sources the parts in Asia. It's not like they need to comply with Build America Buy America.
Yeah. They could buy old-growth Honduran mahogany from a source in America. That's the ticket!

I am a staunch Rounds player but Willy turned me on to Pyramid Gold Flats and I like the variety of sound and feel. I like both now and Miles gave me a set for my Epi 60's Bird. I like them!
