All the best

At 10:43pm on December 13, 2009, David L. said…: Hi Fergus,
I added a couple of links to Penny Nelson's question on piezo v magnetic so she could see the difference in sound - one of the best demos I found was of your video on the paint box bass. As it is such a good video of the differences in tone and sound quality have added it there hope you don't mind. Also how is the travel CBG coming along and do the tuners work in the modified position?
Regards,
David

good to see there are more of us young brits in the cbg spirit!

At 6:52am on November 22, 2009, Roosterman said…: Hey mate, yep, just wire it up with normal tele wiring - or if you want to get clever, check out Seymour Duncans for some cool alternatives!!

At 7:56am on October 5, 2009, smojo said…: Arrgg - what a bummer. Sorry you didn't get to try my cbgs, they were well hidden under the table I guess. Glad you liked the amps.

At 1:09am on September 27, 2009, Will Carter said…: Nice new ones Fergus - looks like you are well and truly on your way

At 1:39am on September 16, 2009, Will Carter said…: Very nice work there Fergus - great schematic - thanks!!!

At 8:40pm on September 15, 2009, Will Carter said…: Hey Fergus - got a pic of the wiring diagram for your monster bass? I can't seemingly get the two kinds of pickup to work together equally...

At 1:59am on September 14, 2009, Will Carter said…: Hey Fergus,
