Modulus '97 Flea string spacing issue?!

[born2lose]

Hi guys,

I got a Modulus Flea 4 '97 with Lane Poor pickups from the staates last week. She's a really lovely player with pretty low action and fast playable neck. No issues at all except some finish cracks which are hard to notice.

Actually when I took a look at the string spacing I just find it kinda weird that the space from the E string measures 0,4cm and from the G string it is 1 cm! Is this like it should be? Everything is original on this Flea, even the nut, so I guess it left factory with this string setup. I don't have an playing issues but I looks a little weird and the E string could move a little inwards to the neck cause it easly is pulled off.

As this Bass was owned by some other forum members before, maybe somebody can advise me what to do. The Gotoh bridge is only adjustible in height not in width.


thanks in advance, Uwe
