Agree,,,

It's a very simple fix- snip snip-- string tension relaesed no damage and go on about your business. One string is prob $5. But if you want to break out the power tools and goof around with a screw driver and vice grips up around all that nice wood on the headstock... what happens if the vice...

DUDE lay a bath towel or something around the string so it doesn't fly all over the place and cut the string with some cutters. No need to go all tools and what not on it. You can put on a glove on your cutting hand too. I hope I'm not wrong in thinking the string is still on the tuner.

A metal screen in the neck pocket???? Don't do that.

I have a Classic 50's and a Roadworn- if I'm not mistaken (I could be thinking of another one of my basses) you can take off the P guard and it's routed so you don't have to take the neck off. I've never had to adjust either one of mine- so I could be wrong- maybe I'm thinking of my Sting.

For the neck= put a capo on the first fret- hold down E string at 12th fret- feeler gauge @ .015-.017 -- slider under string at the 5th to 7th fret. That's where or close to where the relief should be-- the rest may be the nut the frets the bridge etc etc . Roundwound strings may always have...

My P bass sounded so good in concert that it gave me chills. The awesome honkin , ringing thunder of that bass just did me in. It needs a gold lined case.

Oh yes they do. I've had more than a few. I'll still buy Fenders because of all they seem ( IMO)to be the most dependable as far as "you know what you're getting". I think it has a lot to do with the wood and finish and other things of course. I play std 440 tune Rock, Heavy Rock, Country...

I spent over $1000 on a G&L . I played it at home and it sounded fine. I played it at a gig and it had no cut thru sound. The tones kind of all ran together and it sounded muddy, dull and not good. I adjusted of course-- to no avail. I played at another gig in a different room where my P and J...

They certainly look awesome.

I think it is better to Rock than to strike an Eagle Spear Moon. A Telecaster bass is not for everyone.

I think he's in his teens.

You still play bass because everyone that hears you loves what you do ? DUDE !!!!! HA! You must have offers coming over the phone like a Rhinestone Cowboy !:bassist:
