Cool bass! Never seen one before. I’ve been lucky, both my 1444 and my convertible have extremely straight necks.

Thanks Verne. Actually I think my old convertible has the same hole, can confirm this evening. Found these pics a while ago that seem to have something similar going on too. Either way I'm sure you're right about shims being much less risky.

What is this hole below the bottom neck screw for? Is it for adjusting the neck angle maybe? Thinking about putting in a shim to bring the action down a bit.

How can I join? I have a question re neck adjustment on my Silvertone 1444 I'd like to post in this thread but so far can only post in 'Basses'.

What are you sitting on? For me it's much easier to use a tallish stool or relatively high chair as opposed to a low cushy sofa. You can rest the body along the side of your thigh instead of on top of it. Strap optional. Re the weight, could be just a denser piece of wood. Every one is unique...

I'm pretty sure my Vox Delta IV was actually made by Eko.
