tayste_2000 Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 (edited) My tour has cost me a fortune so I'm selling some of my lesser used instruments. It's the one on the left. This is a japanese made epiphone and is in very good condition, it has a few issues (sorta) its obvious to me this is how the instrument was built so I'm listing the items of work I was going to have done to it to make it a really great instrument. Neck could do with a shim (mainly due to the pickups and string height) Currently the strings are as low as they can go and while the neck could get straighter, these strings are nearly touching the bridge pickup and are really far away from the neck pickup resulting in the neck pickup sounding weak. Put something similar to a shim under the front pickup to get it closer to the strings, maybe look at rewinding it as well. Now don't get me wrong there is nothing wrong with the bass, I would just do these things to make it better and if it doesn't sell and something else does I will have these items done. The neck is really fat and chunky and the bass is currently strung with custom 50-110 heavy flats and tuned DGCF and it sounds HUGE, it's a shame the neck pickup doesn't have more umph because the bridge one is thumpy as hell so I can only imagine what the neck one would sound like if sorted.
