I'll make enquiries, although I don't hold out hope for anything (especially affordable) here. Oh and I'm not that keen to go fishing in the guts either. Hollow body wiring mods are above my expertise level.





Yeah, seen people say it is 'low output'. It's low Z, but there's nothing 'low output' about it.



Things get knocked when you chase each other around the house.

Late to the party on your newly acquired JC, great score!
You'll love it.

They were chasing you around the house?

Mainly each other. Occasionally me.

Hey my first music video is now on YouTube (with Thunderbird content):

Way to represent!
Great job by everyone.

Thanks! Glad they showed the VP more than my mug!

Diggin' this mod retro vibe! The Monkees meet Nancy Sinatra meets surf meets ... you. And the lyrics are great!

Question: anyone here swapped out the tuners on a Jack Casady? Are they large or small post? They look maybe half-inch, but they're a bit curvy.

Ha! Happy to see both.

Yup, I missed it first viewing. I'm used to the jack being on the front.

Does that have a bridge cover?

Large. I put 1/2” Hipshot licensed Y tuners on mine.

It would look cool with one, eh?

Cool! Dig it baby - yeah!

Thanks! That was the late '60s!

Yup.

Hey my first music video is now on YouTube (with Thunderbird content):

Great video! Tight band, nice shots of everybody, sweet bass sound, rippin strat, basic but perfect drumming, spot on vocals, all mixed very nicely. Many up and coming bands place the singer way too forward in the mix, yours was done perfectly - I could clearly hear every instrument and vocal, no one walked all over everybody else. Hats off to the band and your sound guy/mixer.

Your singer has a strong Heart vibe going - I'd love to hear you guys do Barracuda.

 

[GBassNorth]

hot off the press -

Love it!
We are blessed with so many talented players in this club!
I'm sure you make the Queen proud!

Just out of curiosity, how many pieces are in your band? I'm guessing at least six or seven in this recording. Did you use your Dano on this recording? Bassline had a perfect retro vibe.

Score!

There are black JC pickups (with a matching ring) your local Epiphone dealer can order one as a repair part. Don't know what the cost would be... I suspect that there are many out there who have done that swap.

Well that was totally unequivocal.

'We do not bring Epiphone spare parts into Australia, try eBay.'

Black vinyl it is then.
