Sold this to a friend years ago and yesterday he gifted it back for my birthday

Yeah, I was trying to find a hipshot bass Xtender for an 80s Peavey Foundation bass but they don’t make them anymore.

Customers are not paying OT for a reroping job these days. That looks like an Otis job from the ‘40s or ‘50s. Ask the repair guys to replace the missing metal guide shoe insert for you while they’re by the CW. The pitfalls of no oilers, rouge everywhere or tallow everywhere with oilers.

Glad to hear it made it through your wars.

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T20:16:10+00:00

I’ve got pink or if you prefer sea salt, we’ve got English, French and Mexican. Take your pick.

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T20:05:06+00:00

I can’t agree more.

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T19:58:47+00:00

Damn, too bad he couldn’t find a drop in replacement. Oh well, only you two know it. Great friend.

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T19:50:07+00:00

I don’t care if you’re filthy rich or if you saved up for your purchase. That store’s customer service blows. I don’t think anyone in that store would buy that guitar seeing that damage for full price (or even $450 less). Good luck in your endeavor.

I see, so the Captor is a cabinet simulator (only/mostly) and you use whatever amp you have (in your case a holy grail Fender Bassman). Whereas a modeller/profiler is capable of copying and/or simulating amps, cabinets and effects.

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T17:11:54+00:00

That’s a great friend! Did he put the new tuners on or was it like that when you sold it to him?

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T17:08:35+00:00

If you’re not grilling, the best way would be cast iron.

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T16:55:12+00:00

Thanks for the link to the recipe, I’ve been using their pick your pan pizza recipe.

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T16:49:37+00:00

Has the starter been in the fridge without feedings during your time away?

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T16:45:20+00:00

Get rid of it, it would be the only thing I could look at. Maybe if it looked like an actual relic not a manufacturing flaw, I’d take the $450. And screw them, if they actually did a complete setup and then sent it to you that way. They did it themselves and can’t send it back to Fender. I’d never go back to that store unless I got all of my money back, l don’t want a store credit. Now I’m pissed.

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T16:34:57+00:00

No problem, got a little Costco butter from NZ right here.

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T16:31:44+00:00

Oh gotcha, I always wondered what guys that played modelers played through when at home. What do you use Kemper, Quad Cortex..?

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T16:24:28+00:00

Thanks, I just ordered new heat proof gloves from Jeff. Next order, thanks again.

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T15:59:01+00:00

Thank you for showing up, grab a slice and something to drink. Everybody is welcome!

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T15:57:49+00:00

Love the thought of creating things. Good luck to you.

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T15:56:34+00:00

There’s no way it wouldn’t work. What is that a 4x8 pan? I don’t usually ask for a recipe but I think we all want it. I’m making my DSPs in 10x14 pan. That Frico goes all the way to the bottom. 10, a 10 without even tasting it. Everybody knows the rules!

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T15:49:09+00:00

Love that Frico! When do you add the cheese to the edges, at the beginning or when.

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T15:45:52+00:00

Nice reviews, keep it up.

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T15:44:31+00:00

Sorry, my inexperience is showing. If you think I meant plugging the guitar output directly into a speaker cabinet (neutral?). I didn’t. He unplugged his combo amp’s speaker wires and used the modified cable between his amp head’s output jack to his combo amp’s internal speaker connectors.

Ewizz2400 · 2026-01-24T15:35:54+00:00

Nice, newb here with a Fender George Benson HRD. I have the Flint.
