All I do is give the backing artists (hidden from sight in the original pic) some deserved musical credit!









I find it disappointing how even the purest of my intentions are misconstrued in this cesspool of innuendo you guys wallow in.  :-\

You lead singer is the first woman I see playing an Explorer since Lovely Lita Metal Maid Ford!



I think there is a reason for that: That angular shape doesn't appeal to women, you know how they want everything rounded and without sharp edges. All that Feng Shui girlie stuff.

Sorry to say, but it doesn't look right on her.

I have this lingering, even nagging question: Have you tried your new dogfood yet? Bottom up customer approach, no less.

 I beg to differ good sir, it's usually the best 13-14 seconds of the day  ;)

I always had a sneaking suspicion that that stop and go aspect of your cherished national sport has sources embedded elsewhere.

Given that Edith is, together with her daughter, on a one week Thelma & Louise trip in Denmark, I'm pretty much left to my own devices regarding the recommended cure ...

Now where is that hand puppet again?

My EB-Warwick as it looks now, in the office, black knobs and nicely yellowed to even more an ivory tone than it already was (pic makes it look greenish, it isn't in real life):

Not as a collector's piece, but as a player/tool.

Thank you Dave, we've had our share of atrocities, but not this one!

Must you insult us like this?!!!!  :mrgreen:

German engineering honor would have only seen one solution for a constructional mishap such as this one:




That said, your avatar wordplay is oarsome!  ;D

Of course, it's all about getting sensible action on these things. Filing the saddles deeper is another option.

Or getting a Warwick bridge.

IIRC, the less than low action is the one and only gripe John has about this bass.

Mine actually came into being because of it: I overturned the trussrod in an effort to get the action sensibly low and with that repair coming up I decided to have it refinned and have an extra pup added (plus buying a new EB-0, a slothead this time whose two point is not giving the same issues).
