hey, cool project. wow, I never realized they were so big either.

yea, use a multimeter to figure out which one has the higher ohms. but maybe fender never made them like that and they're interchangeable. It's likely since since CBS did anything to cut costs.

isn't the p-bass basically the first bass guitar? before that people just played upright bass? if it wasn't the first, it was the first to popularize the idea. It's one of those instruments that changed music history.

what is with the new categories in the electric guitar section on ebay?

*
Beginner Packs
(387)

Left-Handed
(139)

Right-Handed

*

one of these needs some subcategories.....

what is that model hagstrom called? they're cool. I wish they made 'em like that today.

this didn't work.....



I poked around in it a bit with the multimeter
but it's late... I'm tired, I'm gonna try more tommorow....

this is what I have:



the L-pad + the enclosure were $17 including shipping from parts express. the jacks and wire is just some that I had around. knobs/washers/bits/bobs came with the L-pad.

Ok, I got the L-pad. but I'm wondering should I wire it just like a normal volume pot? the input signal going to one of the outer lugs, the output coming from the middle lug and the other lug grounded? that would work right? my amplifier won't blow up right?

he put tape on the end of the tremolo bar so he could hold it more loosely. but yea, I don't know if that's enough to make it a signature.

Yea, better ideas:

Kevin Shields Yamaha Reverse Reverb

William Reid Tremolo like he uses all over Honeys Dead or Darklands whatever the one is with all the choppy tremolo stuff.

ok, so what, I like MBV and JAMC.

this is the first one, looks gay in comparison if you ask me, not that you did but i'm telling you anyway. GAY http://www.gear-review.co.uk/cgc/fender_marauder.jpg there is definitely something wrong with this one. this pickguard is not og. it looks someone wedged a jazzmaster pickguard in there an...

kevin sheilds. obviously. and specifically this guitar:



that is the hottest looking jazzy evAR.

also, a william reid gretsch or whatever he plays would be cool

what are peoples thoughts on the squier bronco bass compared to the musicmaster and 'stang?

yea, if you were looking for a faithful reproduction I would look elseware but they still look kinda neat.

hahaha

do you have it or are you just making plans to get one?

I would start with the guitar...

actually, looking at it again, those are linear too. all the other pots there are smooth shaft.... I'm confused....
