Sorry, I'm a bit of a stickler for paperwork. Where would we be if we didn't follow the correct procedures? :)

I've been watching "The Tudors" over the past five weeks or so, very inspirational.............
Olde English types really got into various torture, should we do that instead of paperwork? :unsure:

My wife has just started watching that as well.

I'm going for a trip tomorrow afternoon with the guitarist in my band, he's getting a new telecaster and I'm gonna have to resist the classic iv pro......... As the store has both the alpine white and sunburst models

Nah, no need for medieval torture... However my "stickler for paperwork" comment is a quote from "Brazil", which does feature some sophisticated torture techniques which we might consider... ;)

It's futile to resist... You will be assimilated once you try a Classic Pro in alpine white... :)

I suggest you watch it as well, it's quite good - I'm surprised at how much I've enjoyed it.

I highly recommend the Alpine White :thumbsup:

Correction. Don't add me. The Epi is going back. Too many issues. I'm just going to save and get a Gibson.

That is a shame... Hopefully you will come back to the best club on TB, when you have a new bird...

So what is gonna happen to that Gibson truss rod cover of yours, you mentioned a page ago... ;)

Finish issues (which i could live with), the nut is cut too deep on a couple of strings and a couple of the tuners are bad. I also have to tuning issues with it aside form the tuners. Its just several little things that add up to me not keeping it. When its tuned, its awesome to play and sounds great. It's just the hassle of it all.

The TR cover will probably go to the classifieds or ebay. I paid $43 for it shipped and bought a case for it too...

great, now the gas is officially back.

Wow. I'm shocked. Those are all things that are not common on a neckthru EpiBird. I can see the odd bass having 1 or 2, but to have THAT many things wrong seems out of place and a shot in the dark.

Lull's build quality and finish and the components used are absolutely top of the line. Just about as close to perfection as there is.

Thanks...

That's the things you really can't tell from the pictures on his site - judging from the pictures alone, you're hard pressed to see any significant difference from either a Gibson or Carlo's equally amazing basses.... :)
