Thunderbird Club

Tonight’s abode is Caithness general hospital, Wendy fell over at John o groats and broke her wrist, six hours in A&E so far

Nooooooo!!!!! So sorry to hear this. Hopefully she's not in too much pain and her surgery and recovery goes well. I'll read on from where this was posted to see what else has been posted about this. Again sorry.
 
I liked having a D-tuner on my Goth but in the end, when I needed to drop tune, it required more than one string to drop. There was that rare song that just dropped D but it was just easier to have my different basses tuned differently.

Glad you're still loving it, Mike!
I've never needed/fooled with drop tuning. I bought a Les Paul 5 string in '96 to get those extra 5 notes and it's a great(heavy)bass. But now I use my EHX micro POG and get up to 3 notes while fingering one and it fits in my stuff bag. It's my only stomp box and I highly recommend it.:D Edit: Depending on your amp's "fartiness", it'll take you down to c-c#, no sweat.

You don’t get it : it’s a real neck through - but the neck heel has been shaped to appear looking like a fixed neck.
I think you’re looking at a different pic to the one I’m thinking about. Is there one of the neck showing the joint before the body is assembled? Possibly talking about the neck angle?
I know the one you mean showing the back of the neck after spraying
 
Tortoise pick is for PBass and Jazz bass, nothing else.

Used Gold pick is good :
