Re: WTF Esquire shortbass

Googling for the construction of the original EB-0 pickup and looking at some of the grumbles about the "mudbucker" there seem to be a lot of alternatives for what lurks in that big cover.

Re: Strat wiring question

So. Forgot about this post. What i was looking for was to have push pull pots to tap neck and bridge buckers as well as 3rd push pull to activate bridge pup at any time. Almost there. Still needs a little setup. Ah. What you said earlier was two push pull pots to tap neck and bridge buckers and a t...

So... how do you want the tone knob to work? Without active electronics I can't see a way to do it without unwanted side-effects.

Re: WTF Esquire shortbass

I have an Epiphone EB0 that I've only played two or three times since bringing it back from the shop. That's a short scale SG shaped bass, but I'd rather it had two pickups.

Re: Woodrite Switchblade

Strange coincidence. Woodrite is heavily featured in the stock of WM Guitars, which I just posted about.

A visit to WM guitars Ashburton

I've had an FB advertisement pop up a couple of times for WM Guitars in Ashburton (http://www.wmguitars.com/). As we were going to be passing close by on our way back from holiday (and with encouragement from Bacchus) I popped in for half an hour. It's a cave of treasures selling old and rare guitar...

I'd love to be a good enough player to justify buying the CK88... The Hydrasynth sounds epic from the demos.

Re: pictures of your gear here

I spent an hour or so with a scrubbing brush cleaning it up, removed the grille and vacuumed/wiped the dust off the speakers and generally made it look more presentable. Pe...
