I wish I had recieved an e-mail like that back when I started doing my own set-ups. Oh well.....I've learned the old fashioned way....trial & error.....lot's of error.......finally, I started getting it right (like this guide teaches you to do......without ruining your bass  . |

|  | I've got to admit it's getting better | | Join Date: May 2005 Location: Duluth, Georgia | | When Jerzy sent out the spanish version of the guide about a week ago, judging from the photos and illustrations, I could see this was going to be a valuable, in-depth guide to bass setup. I received the english version in this morning's email from Jerzy. I've since printed it out in color and put it in a 3-ring binder. I can't wait to go through it this weekend. I might even setup my Jerzy Drozd bass!

I thought I understood quite a bit, but A LOT of what I had known was slightly sketchy after I read this. Thanks to Jerzy for such an awesome, easy-to-understand manual! |

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Jul 2004 Location: Fort Collins, Colorado | | | Very complete! I see that he is also emphatic about changing strings one at a time, which I have never done. Maybe I'll give that a try next time...I do it very seldom.
