It is about a quarter of the way into the 1st fret and only feelable if you get in there with your nails. Any other marks are only reflections or shockingly poor polishing. It is in very very good nick. cos I am sad like that. Edited March 18, 2014 by owen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr.harry Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 This really isn't fair. I don't suppose you have need for a second wife, do you? GLWTS (said with gritted teeth) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owen Posted March 20, 2014 Author Share Posted March 20, 2014 I am in Bangor, North Wales. Thanks for the offer of a second wife but after 24 years I am still learning about my first one and I cannot multitask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] The basses I have always wanted are ALWAYS coming along. However, what I fancy doing to that MTD is stringing it up with a bottom F# to see how it works. It is probably too expensive to be experimenting with! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owen Posted April 20, 2014 Author Share Posted April 20, 2014 What I really want to do is get hold of a 6 string NS EUB, get it fretted and put a bottom F# on it. Needless to say, this will not be happening any time soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr.harry Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Now, that is a man with a clear ambition! All you'll need then is a custom rig capable of producing 18Hz properly And a rubber room to play it in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonnyonbass Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Is this still for sale? And what is the string spacing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 Yep, it is still here. I am away at the moment so cannot measure, but it is standard Status spacing, not the tight one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonnyonbass Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Ah ok. Thanks. That should be 18mm then if I recall. But I'll check to be sure :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
