yeah, I have a old lathe, and know how to use it
unfortunately no power connection, yet
even a small sanding machine would be great
which I also have, but again, no power for it
also a bench drill would be a great help
that I have too, but no power ...
so, like I said in post #675, right now it is as much about finding a method that goes without advanced tools 😉
but thanks anyway

Details please?
I'm currently working up a 2RU integrated bass head. Bought one of the ICE 500ASP modules for sale here, which already sounds great with my existing DIY preamps.
guess I must have
link says it's already been saved
but I got tired of effects
I run clean passive into my DIY jfet preamp
though I still find them interesting, for study, thanks
looking at tone curcuit
this is my first passive with two tone controls
plays nice, but 'artificial' and gnarly
appears the tone controls are just one on each pickup
not sure why they call that bass and treble controls
took out the caps and measure them, and they they are both 70n
and, I found one one cap to be very poorly soldered, and loose
quite a mess with all those wires
will change that later
for now I just moved the caps to positive side of signal
nice change, and improved the already good playability even further

Hi Tin, you have been busy on the bass builds and I have been dropping by on your posts from time to time and catching up. Nice work.
🙂
testing different strap pin/button placement
this particular bass have exstreme offset
the experiment started because I found it very stressing
but in the end I have decided to keep it
proved quite good for the low wearing rock style
but absolutely no good for a high wearing
makes this bass feel like a crawbar
a small offset to the opposite side cured this completely
actually, almost feels like it lost a pound or two
a nice surprice
new bass just came in 😀 ... a really cool and cheap Toby
