    The owner should be using heavier gauge strings if he wants to tune down a full step, wouldn't be as floppy.

    Great job! Agree on neck wood quality being important, definitely check when buying😊. The grain on client’s bass is obviously slabsawn. (As opposed to quarter-sawn) Slabsawn can be perfectly OK, but the maple needs to be dense & high quality in the first place.

    I have never seen a fender neck that was quarter sawn. What Dave is showing is run out. Trees have to be very large diameter to get annular rings that are straight enough to get quarter sawn. If you choose a neck that was flat sawn you want to see medulary ray on either side that shows perfect simmetry .

    Is that push pull an active/passive preamp switch? Might be that in passive mode it doesn't need the 9v, which may be why there wasn't a battery in it. Great work as usual!! I've learned more about setup from your videos than anywhere else combined. Thank you!!

  • @LilYeshua
    @LilYeshua Před 26 dny

    Yeah and ouch on that neck wood grain. My Ibanez SR300EB remarkably has a quarter sawn neck in addition to it having a five layer laminated neck. I still have to barely breathe on the double action truss rod adjustment as compared to my Jackson JS3 Spectra Bass with it having two graphite reinforcement rods in it. However,my basses live in their cases when not being played. Of course I keep my basses in playing condition. Thanks to you for all the knowledge and wisdom I've gained from watching your videos.

    Ok, I learned a little about sawn lumber by watching this job. I hope I understood, there are diagrams about slab and quarter sawn blanks, and where the circular rings show the place and angles made by the cuts. Since it's new info to me, I can't comment more, but I am about to buy an instrument and will be talking to a friend who's a carpenter about this. Thanks Dave

    I was in a band that used Drop B and C# standard tuning. For my 5 string bass I had to tune all the other strings except for the B, down 1-1/2 steps. Screwed the tension up on the neck and caused it to twist to the side. Never again...

    That guy should use a heavier gauge string set if he wants to tune down a whole step. The B should be .135 or .130 it won't flop like that .125 does just saying......lol
