Well you learn something every day they say. A pm would have been appreciated.

Genuinely, really sorry, Peter. No offence intended. It's one of those word-confusions that happens quite a lot, so I thought I'd mention it in an attemptedly light-hearted way.

I'm just an unbearable smart-arse. I used to correct my teachers at school as they wrote stuff on the blackboard. Some of them didn't take too kindly to it, but I just did it compulsively anyway.

I should go on a mission over on BC. If I see "defiantly" instead of "definitely" one more time, I'll hunt the perpetrator down and pummel them. Definitely. In defiance of their protests.

No problem, I genuinely appreciate the heads up, I've been using the word ascetic instead of aesthetic for years. I suppose I saw it as a put down

A bit like empathic and empathetic I suppose. I sometimes wonder if I'm a bit odd with my words, like Hilda Baker, my Mum has the same problem

As I've said, absolutely no put-down intended.

I think a lot of people at least say ascetic instead of aesthetic, and that then affects the way they write it. A bit like "could of" instead of "could have" or "could've".

As for empathic/empathetic, if you cast aside the Star Trek influence, they're apparently completely interchangeable. That's something I've learned today (although being a bit of a Star Trek fan, I'm not going to change my ways any time soon).

Hi
Just got this one finished.
Dirty finish on the Ash body and the Wenge/Padauk neck. Mac Ebony finger board with no radius.
Hipshot Type A 18 mm spacing,Schaller strap locks and Ultralite tuners.
Pre-amp is an ACG EQ02 4K/S. This is the single pickup version of my pre-amp having the following controls.
Volume, Low-pass filter stack,Hi-pass filter stack and passive tone.

The pickup is my new RFS. This is a triple coil pickup made up from a wide aperture humbucker with a single coil in between the humbucker coils so is in effect two pickups in the one housing. The 3 way mini switch gives you the following. Humbucker, single coil and humbucker and single coil together.
I am very pleased with this pickup.

Very nice Alan, reminds me of my very own ACG.
Would love to hear a bit more about the RFS pickup, bet it sounds awesome!

Top work, as usual

Great, after finally narrowing it down to GB or Status, I now have to widen it up to include ACG.

I do like the dirty ash finish, but I've just rationalised what really appeals to me about that bass and it's the back of the neck...that wonderful, silky wood sheen...

[BottomEndian]

For me, it's the headstock facings that make that bass absolutely hot sex. Yum.
