I guess its just an idiosyncrasy of this particular bass and its just a matter of trial and error to get the last little bit of the equation correct; be it shimming, replacing a nut, adjusting reveal or whatever - at some point you are either gonna get it right or have to make do with "its close...

Thanks for the info guys !! I didn't know about that so I've learned something else :) I bow to your greater experience. So, I guess there aint a fat lot I can do about this final issue; its just a case of having to live with it and playing on other areas fret board to achieve the same result...

OK guys, thanks for the info on the tuners - I'll stick with the standard ones supplied on it :). You guys know a lot more than me so, that's done and dusted !! So far, it seems to be gettin' there but, I still have the strange anomaly of frets 15 and 17 sounding a bit hollow/dead (counting...

Update on my Bass VI - Fitted Staytrem bridge as you know and now managed to get a .105 E string and its a lot better !! Less string wobble now so tuning is close to correct - I'd say 90%. There are still a couple of notes along the E string that sound a bit hollow about half way down the fret...

Hi Shardik Thanks for the info :) I've just sent them an email - lets keep fingers crossed !!

Hey - I think ya probably right :) We cant get half the stuff you guys can get; we're really behind the times in a lot of things. Maybe I ought to just move out there with you guys - at least I know that good music is still alive, kicking and appreciated over in the states !! Unlike here...

Where from ??? I just cant get em :(

Hi Guys and "1stnamebassist" I've tried to get my bass VI to intonate/tune correctly and have even bought the Staytrem Bridge (this has helped) but its still not quite there yet. I need to get a .104 E string for it to hopefully just add that missing link that will enable it to go right :)...

OK just looking online to see how much. Just on eBay at the minute. The only ones on there I can see are La Bella 760FS Deep Talkin Bass Guitar Strings - Standard 45 - 105 Flat Wound

Thanks for the reply Sneaky T and Khutch - all noted !! OK guys, played around some more with adjustments on the bridge this afternoon and got it close but still not quite there :(. I decided to ring a local techy in our area and he very kindly had a quick look at it and said it could...

OK Tried that - no good. Been fiddling with guitar for a couple of hours without joy. Gonna read through some more of this thread etc to see if can get the answer !!

Ok, will do that tomorrow (time here is 1.30 in morning and got to throw some zzzz's now) and will let you know how I get on. I hear that this sometimes works and corrects the problem so, fingers crossed. Cheers guys.

Hi Everyone With a little trepidation, just purchased a new Squier Bass VI :) Already having issues with the E string/tuning/intonation etc., so I now have to endure the task of getting it to function/play correctly ! Thought I'd start with the bridge and get either a Staytrem or a Masterly -...

Man, those were fast replies. OK, someone asked if I got a Spector - Yes, I got 2: NS2A and a Performer. I was thinking about getting a Spector Legend 4 Classic off a friend of mine as it may be going cheap but, I hear a lot of talk about them not sounding too good with the tone pump jr...

Hi Guys I know I'm kinda just bumping into this discussion outta the blue but, I was just searching on line for info on Spector basses and noticed something about "Spector Club" and lots of Spector owners etc. Looking down here I notice everyone has member numbers "Spector Club #...." Anyone...
