Trussrod

[artwyrk]

Hello, I'm about to buy a new high end bass. The builder/ designer is an acquaintance. They have been selling for about 2k. I'm looking at 3 basses and 2 of them have a slight bow to the neck. As you look down the neck like from the pick ups, it bows down slightly then upagain at the head. Eric says he can adjust this bow with the truss rod, I'm Leary and I'm leaning towards the not as nice bass with the straight neck. Thanks

a bit of bow in a neck is fine, actually it can be desirable. just play it, if it plays good then buy it.
