"All the wood used in Blackwood Tek is FSC® 100% Pinus radiata grown in short rotation plantations in New Zealand. This is the only suitable wood for obtaining Blackwood Tek, due to its ideal characteristics for the technological process."
Probably in my actual former neck of the woods -- so to speak.
The other day I woke up to 2 posts, had to triple checked all my clocks and make sure it wasn’t 2am… Eastern time. Musta been a full moon that night.
Maybe they are held up at customs... assuming the fretboards are rosewood
Interesting, I read today that Warwick has a Lee Sklar signature model.

It includes a three way "producer switch".
As I continue to think about the Pro-V, I have been thinking about Seymour Duncan Blackouts. If I wire it VV, and as I am thinking no tone, I have two empty holes. In one, I would put an on/off switch so that I don't have to unplug it. Perhaps a producer switch or a 3 way pickup selector?

Very, very interesting....

You’d think you could turn that off as a supporting member.
For those of you that might be a few years younger than me...

Interesting article from the New York Times about the return of '80s bands along with lots of videos. I don't recall if TBirds were seen on stage much back then. IIRC things like headless basses and Spector and Yamaha were the rage in the 80's.
Enjoy!

If you're thinking you don't need a tone knob but do need an on/off switch just clip the tone cap off and run a wire from the lug it was attached to to the pot housing. This in effect makes your tone knob an on/off switch. Turn the knob to zero = no output. Turn the knob to anything else = fully open tone. Keeps the original looks and is easy to reverse if you decide to sell at a later date.
neck of the woods, woods the of the neck - it's all the same.
One of my bands, Dustern, incorporates synth pretty heavily.
My assumption was not so much to sell off Classics as to hold back VPs just for a staggered launch ie 2 bits of publicity instead of 1; and to get Embassy’s into peoples hands and get real world views on the pickups. So they’d be able to sort any production issues with before unleashing and perhaps damaging the Thunddbird.
Btw - quote and reply both ‘gone’ this morning. Hence no quote. I hope it still makes sense.

But why go to ESP I wonder. Spector and Warwick have great Artist programs. Never really tried an ESP bass, always kind of thought of them as cheap beginner student level basses, kind of like LTD and OPM. Guess I need to get out more and try some new stuff.
