Heavy Neck/Light Body Problem

[Stoom]

A few options:

That looks good but I've taken a cheaper alternative and bought some lead ingots on ebay for about £5 which I'll glue into the control cavity.

Done, it works, how could it not.

This might be the only time I'd advocate a HM bridge, but it has to be made from spent fuel rods or some black hole matter.

In the case of the latter, one cubic 1/16 of an inch would counterbalance a 1968 Buick 225.

Yeah I no longer think of neck dive as being a deal breaker, some of the new Ibbys have heavier bridges which is a plus.

Lead fishing weights and tape. If you have a propane torch handy, you can melt them into shape so that they fit more snug into your control cavity.

Another option is to buy some scube weights (they come in 1 lb increments, sit relatively flat, and they're about the same width as a strap) and sew a pouch onto your strap to hold one.

Holy **** let's breathe in some noxious fumes so we can have our bass sit properly... lol the ideas on this board are neverending entertainment.

Thanks for the laugh
