Jeff will be bunking with Will?I know, and it's a good thing too, there's about 500 of them in the room with you, and, as of today 16 basses. We'll move the basses out for the GTG.
This guy!

I knew that my alignment wouldn't be perfectly centered without widening my route in the body, but I was curious if that would affect the output levels of the strings. So I wired this guy straight to the jack and checked levels.
Now I'm not so sure if I'm gonna go through opening up the pickguard and stuffing both PU's in there. It sounded damn good as is. Definitely not a vintage voice, but much closer to what I was wanting out of it. Hmmmm.

Mine at batteries anyway. It didn't matter what I did. Batteries would only last a few hours of playing. My wireless lasts longer than the preamp did before I yanked it in frustration.

I don't know that guy. That bass, on the other hand, is the love of my life.I know, and it's a good thing too, there's about 500 of them in the room with you, and, as of today 16 basses. We'll move the basses out for the GTG.

Yah, I thought the BBC version was really good. The 2005 big budget movie was ok.
That's how rumors get started.
Can anybody give me the measurement from 12th fret to top of the pickup on the II's????

Sometimes great minds just can't reveal sources.

Well, there is a couch in the Basement of Bad Ideas. We made sure it was long enough to sleep on when we got it. It's where I end up when I fall asleep down there.
All is right in KB5's world of bass OCD (for now). The pickups in my VP are now parallel to the strings.The voices in my head tell me it sounds and plays 100% better now.

Consider installing an on/off switch and calling it a day. Pots and tone caps are overrated.
My Gibby 2015 bird is one of the worse offenders I have when it comes to the tone knob controlling the volume of the bass (as long as the volume knob isn’t on max).
TB is the only social media site I’m on. I have a LinkedIn page but I mostly ignore it and it’s way out of date.
My last house had about a dozen large Bradford pear trees. Every wind storm we would get would tear about half the trees down. Lop em off about three feet above the ground and the grow back in a couple of years. Aristocrat Pear trees are much stronger and pretty much have no problems in the wind.
Yes that’s bubinga. With the characteristic blurred grain line.
I'm a big fan of tone pots. I could live without a volume.
