throwoff Posted July 19, 2010 Posted July 19, 2010 my set up - 57 reissue Fender Japan Bodged thumb rest poorley fitted Seymour Duncan 1/4 pounder Bridge cover which cost 3 quid a mish mash of strings plectrum. Quote
Kongo Posted July 19, 2010 Posted July 19, 2010 Thats uh...quite intricate...I just have mine setup how I like it, neck as flat as I can get it without getting excess buzz, strings low but not too low, pickups fairly high and close to the strings (I've always used em as a ramp). I gots DiMarzio Will Power on mine...friggin loudest bass I've ever played and so sensitive to the touch you can feather the string and give it a little gliss and it responds so well. Quote

Davo-London Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 '76 Fender P Dunno to all your questions. However, original bridge was in the wrong poistion. I moved it. Then I stuck a Badass II bridge on it for 30 years (my fault) - recently returned the stock bridge. Curious thing is the intonation is better! Explain that if you can. And yes I know how to set the intonation. The neck is dead straight to my eye. I wish it was a 60's P though! It might get played more. Davo Quote
