    [quote name='7string' post='308990' date='Oct 17 2008, 11:34 PM']I was sure I'd seen a repair for your trussrod problem in the original Dan Erlewine video tapes from the 1984. I went through two 3 hour video tapes, but I found it again! To fix the rattle, the video shows him taking off one of the mid-board fingerboard dots (7th) and drilling into the neck from the area underneath the dot. Thinned down Titebond glue is then injected into the neck using a plastic syringe. The instrument is left for a few hours for the glue to harden. If this doesn't stop the rattle, then another dot is removed and the process repeated.[/quote] Hi, That's a very useful piece of info for solving an ill-fitting truss rod. I must remember that! However, I'm 99% sure that the weld has broken that fixes the bar to the threaded part or the rod. This would mean the rod part would flap around as it is narrower than the bar itself. I'll be removing the board and fixing the problem at some point in the future. I'm sure this will end up an awesome bass. Ian

    You may have heard I'm off to Canada. As a result my band is splitting. It was coming to end anyway - this was the nail in the coffin!! Anyway, we've two Mackie M1400i amps for sale. They've been in a 4U case from new. Only the handles have some wear. Brilliant utterly reliable amps, 700w + 700w into 2-ohms, or 1400w bridged into 4ohms. Built in crossover, filters etc. Owned from new. The amps will be available after xmas. £225 each.

    Has the pup been removed at some point? I have accidentally clipped the 3-pin lead on the wrong way round, which lead to it sounding no quite right! I guess the internal preamp could become faulty, although I've never heard of it before.

    [quote name='Paul Cooke' post='283658' date='Sep 14 2008, 01:38 PM']OK, if the real buyer fails to come forward with how he wanted it routed etc., then I'd like to put my marker in for it.[/quote] Thanks Paul, but the buyer got in touch, so it's still sold I'm afraid.
  18. Chopthebass
    Guys, sorry but I can't find out who wanted this body!! I promised it to someone and I just can't find the message!! Please get back in touch or I'll have to put it back up for sale. Cheers
