dmz Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 (edited) Have decided to thin out the collection a bit - so up for grabs is a Nash 58 P-Bass I ordered from the Low End shop in the US in 2008. [url="http://www.thelowend.net/thelowend/index.htm"]http://www.thelowend.net/thelowend/index.htm[/url] Ash body with 3-tone sunburst, Lollar pickup, maple fingerboard and medium ageing by Mr Nash..... Yes - there is an "F-decal" - obtained and fitted by my good self. Plays great - the neck is a dream and perhaps not for Jazz Bass lovers as it is vintage "C" type - so 1.75 inch at the nut and a good handful. Looking for £895 plus shipping. These beasties cost £1500 or so new in the UK so something of bargain I believe. If you live near South Wales you'd be more than welcome to come over and try her out - PM me if interested. Doesn't come with a case but can wrap her up well or perhaps you can come over and take her home with you ! No trades please !

warwickhunt Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Do you have an accurate weight? Is it a trick of the camera angle or is the neck slightly out of true. It looks like the E string comes in over as it comes down and the G string does the opposite, to the point where the G sting is nearly off the fingerboard; the bridge saddles also look like they are all bumped across to the left of centre!

Is there any movement in the neck pocket to help re-align? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I'd concluded that it was the bridge plate being out of alignment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmz Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 Nothing wrong with the neck - bass plays perfectly fine. Bridge could do with being moved a few millimeteres to the left as you look at it come to think of it. Can get this done by Eltham Jones - who I usually rely on to do any work on my guitars/basses.
