Cheers Grangur, Yeah i thought applying heat to the neck would help. I'll defiantly look to get it to a tech, the job is outside my skill set to fettle lol. Thanks again!!- 8 replies

Yeah that's the one, I messaged the seller but he insists that the neck was fine before it was sent to me. He then had the nerve to suggest I had caused the twist when I removed the strings to look at it. Ta- 8 replies

Hello all. So i recently acquired a Yamaha RBX765a 5 stringer, however when it arrived I noticed that the neck had a substantial bow in it. No big deal i thought, I've a little bit of experience with setting my own basses over the years, so i broke out the Allen keys and started adjusting the truss rod. I found the rod itself stiff but it did turn, however no matter how much i turn the rod in either direction there was no noticeable difference. this has lead me to believe that the truss rod has possibly snapped. on further investigation I have found the the neck has a noticeable twist at the head-stock end. As it stands the bass is unplayable. the question I have now, is the neck fixable? if so, how would I go about doing so, or should i look to have a new neck made. Any advice, feedback or help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers Gang!!! Sorry for the rubbish pictures

Hi all For Sale/ Trade I have my trusty Lakland 55-01 string bass. I've owned this bass for the past 5/6 years and it has done me proud but the time has come for me to move it on as I'm finding my wrists can't cope with the 35" scale and 19mm string spacing as much any more. The the bass is in great condition, it has been my main bass for those past years so it does have an few marks on it but nothing major. I have added a pickguard to it which you can been se in the images. its not a perfect fit but from a distance looks fine. Here is a link to the lakland website for specs: https://www.lakland.com/product/skyline-series-55-01/ Included in the sale is a new set of Ernie Ball Super long scale strings. SOLD!!! Trade wise, SHOW ME WHAT YOU GOT!!!! Any questions please feel free to ask!!!

Hello all For Sale/ Trade I have two Jazz bass style bodies that I have acquired over the past few years that I had intended to use for various projects etc. The first is a vintage white(?) Fender Jazz bass deluxe body from around 2015. In general good condition, alder body wood. Price : 80 pound plus 10 pound for P+P Next up is a black Jazz body, I think its fender but cant be sure. again in good condition, just needs a bit of a clean. I think again its and alder body Price: 50 pound plus 10 for P+P I'm also open to trades, specifically looking for a P Bass style body, ideally fender or Squier, alder body wood if possible, in black or maybe white. Any questions please feel free to ask. Cheers.

Greeting all, Up for sale if my Yamaha BB735a 5 string in nearly new condition. Bought this bass back in October last year if memory serves me correctly, and as much as I Love Yamaha BB basses I just can seem to gel with this one, so its being put up on the block. As mentioned the bass is in really good condition, I've only played it mainly at home and a couple of band practice sessions. Also included in the sale will a gig bag. ORIGINAL TUNERS HAVE BEEN PUT BACK on. Hipshots no longer included in the sale. SOLD!!! I would be open to trades but only 4 stringers really. Cheers all, any questions, please feel free to ask.

Hey Cameron J, I've had my BB735a for a few months now, totally agree with your review of the bass, I was wondering how you found the balance of the bass when playing on a strap? I've found that the headstock tends to want to pull down slightly, which is not uncommon with bb basses. Contemplating replacing the tuners with some hipshot ultralites to help balance it out. Cheers bud

The clearout continues. [u][b]BOTH SOLD[/b][/u] Two Fender bass necks up for grabs, an Aerodyne jazz neck and a Standard MIM P bass neck. The First, an Aerodyne Jazz neck, I bought this from The Stratosphere Shop off eBay a year or so ago for a build that never got off the ground. I believe the neck is from a 2006 MIJ Aerodyne jazz but don't quote me on that.The neck itself is in good shape, the truss rod works fine and has minimal fret wear. there are a few dings here and there but nothing that effects the play-ability of the neck itself. The neck has a string tree and Gotoh tuners installed, themselves cost me around £50 when I bought them. [attachment=252866:7D__7318.JPG] Next up I have a MIM P bass neck with maple fret board. Bought from Andertons earlier this year, its in mint condition, never been used, just been sat in its box. The neck comes loaded with some generic Fender style tuners. [attachment=252867:7D__7311.JPG] I do have more images of each neck available so if your interested drop me a message with your email address and I'll pop them over to you. Thanks for looking!!
