Had another good jamalam thru a cranked Marshall down my mate's studio last week. Took the SG and the re-necked Tele having had to to fettle the nut over the holidays. Finding I'm really enjoying the whole thing. It has tall narrow frets, and a 7"radius and for whatever reason I just seem to be able to fly around it in exactly the way I couldn't on the old neck. Could be psychosomatic but I'm sure it sounds better too. Chunkier neck and rosewood board? Either way I'm dead chuffed. Think i'm gonna switch back the OG neck PU tho. Full on Cropper.
Resurrected another mate's instrumentstoday. A '96 Squier P-bass that was disgustingly filthy. Gave it a deep clean (deep in the crack), fixed a dry solder joint, new strings, conditioned the board, set it up and it's playing and sounding great. Very satisfying. Still on the hunt for one of my own.
Oh and Amazon accidentally sent me box of 6 sets of strings instad of the one I ordered so I'm set for life now.. Heh.
I've been on my arse with flu the last week and haven't been able to play much
