    The way they leave the Mexican factory is very hit and miss in my experience. At least you're sorted and now up and running! No tension on the rod is to just invite a bow given that the neck is under string tension.
  2. White Cloud
    It all depends on which factory we're talking about. Regarding Fender QC, there's nothing that would surprise me.

    Gorgeous!

    Cracking bass and very interesting to see a pared back paintless view of the neck construction. That's also some wild flamed maple! Great project; please update the pics as you progress.

    Hope the OP doesn't mind me butting in. These are 90/10 - that is, the neck features a 5 piece laminate (3 x maple + 2 x thru-neck graphite rods). Very, very strong and Uber stable. Mine is a 1990 model, has perfect relief, crystal clear clarity/sustain and no dead spots.

    Love this series. Top player, top bloke!

    Excellent!

    Overrated: Rolling Stones. Just don't get it, never have and I guess I never will. Underrated: Deep Purple (not oft quoted nowadays)

    The thing that gets me is that I felt the need to move my favourite bass on last year because I couldn't live with the weight (10.8lbs) anymore ... an Overerwater Progress 5 string. A - I never thought of this solution B - If I had I'd never have thought OW would entertain it. #:-(

    This is what the basschat community is all about: a wonderful story, and exemplary craftsmanship and personal service from OW. What a beautiful bass!

    Super bass. Wal's are hard to beat. Congratulations!

    I absolutely love and hate Rick's in equal measure; gorgeous lines, THAT sound, THAT vibe ... I owned 2 back in the day and I miss them, and am also glad I got rid of them! So confusing!!!

    Three examples for me that really stand out: John Entwistle's live Alembic Exploiter with The Who Geddy Lee's Wal Power Windows recording Jimmy Johnson Alembic live with Alan Holdsworth

    In 40 years of playing bass (and owning everything from Alembic to Wal) my ACG is the best sounding bass I've owned. Glwts

    Absolutely... incredible instruments.

    No consolation to the seller but under normal circumstances I'd snap this up however, these are not normal times!
  18. White Cloud
    Brilliant!

    That is very kind of you. Thanks, stay healthy and enjoy 😁

    Agreed! Very subjective thread this one.
  22. White Cloud
    It's a quandary as it stands however, I'd be inclined to cancel. I agree that current Govt advice is wishy washy but I think we should all be prepared for that stance to harden significantly over the next 7-14 days.

    Fantastic tale... Loved it! Also love your new Vigier Arpege. Congratulations. Can't believe you owned no 2 back in the day. Incredible basses.
  24. White Cloud
    Lovely... and beautiful pictures of Finland 😁
  25. White Cloud
    Agreed. Phenomenal basses.
