Are the strings actually as low as they look?
What the hell is your beer doing on your bass? |

Man, that looks like some seriously low string height..........I could never play that one!
What interests me though is---what the hell is "mind-erasing elixir"? Absinthe in a can?

But the Action is very low, makes it very easy to play. You only say that because you play toybass. You do want to get to a point where you can get some meat under those strings so you can get some sound out of the bad boy.

Like if you play plain gut strings, it looks like this (on the high side though - tastes vary)
