Both my Streamer LX's are from roughly the same era and aren't perfect either (but no twist, thankfully). They play fine, but my 4-string LX can't be set up extremely low because of a small microbend at the 3rd fret and my 5-string is the most sensitive to changes in humidity out of all my instruments. This appears beyond what a fret level can solve. I think you'd need to remove the lower frets (or possibly all), plane the fingerboard, reset the nut and refret. That doesn't come cheap.

rasher80 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 I think my issue is more with right handers and the hundreds of options they have, and generally lower prices, playing left handed instruments. I never said I was a rational man 😂😂 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
