    [quote name='D'AddarioUK' timestamp='1471350141' post='3112342'] +1 for coated strings. The equivalent EXP set to EXL165 is EXP165. You can also buy EXL165 in a twin pack (EXL165TP) which will be cheaper than buying single sets. [/quote] Yep these are great strings and very bright

    [quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1471171057' post='3110928'] LOL, I keep getting the urge to withdraw it and use it for a relic project - a recent thread has given me the itch. But it seems SO wrong on a bass that has no real damage and looks cool as it is. [/quote] Noooooo relic work is wrong you will burn in hell if you ruin a good instrument

    [quote name='CPBass' timestamp='1470420023' post='3105927'] It's a FABULOUS bass but having owned a few Dingwalls I find myself missing them badly. I can't gig anymore so I can't warrant a number of basses. My trade wants are pretty narrow to either a Dinger or I'd give a Wal a try if an owner fancies a change. Who knows what could happen ;-) The final option is just to keep Mrs CP happy with potential cash, (I don't see that happening though lol) [/quote] I hear ya I think Dingwalls are great have you seen the Dingwall Garymac has for sale?that is lush

    [quote name='wishface' timestamp='1470427025' post='3105980'] I'm measuring over the 8th fret, that's what i've been told. I can't measure less than 1/32 of an inch - and even that's difficult with my 70p Wilko tape measure. as far as i can tell it's about 1/16. Very roughly. But I cannot get the E string low enough to not buzz. Its not unplayable by any means, but the action is higher than my previous bass and I would like it lower. The G and D strings I can get away with, but the A and E, the latter in particular, just buzz when comparably lowered. [/quote]Sorry cant help you anymore I think you need to take it to someone who knows what they are doing mate
  20. Thunderbird
    Yes mate first and last down and [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]0.012[/font][/color] relief at the twelfth fret
  21. Thunderbird
    [quote name='wishface' timestamp='1470418234' post='3105914'] what do you think is wrong with it? [/quote]Mate could be several things neck could be warped truss rod could be dodgy or maybe you have just ballsed the setup up? no offence I think you need to take it to a tech mate

    [quote name='Osiris' timestamp='1470407805' post='3105819'] PM'd [/quote] And sold

    [quote name='HowieBass' timestamp='1470398573' post='3105729'] With relief of 3/32" I'd expect the neck to resemble a banana. Either you're not measuring it correctly or there's something badly wrong with the setup. I can't think of any further advice to offer you other than take it to somebody who knows how to set a bass up. [/quote] I agree take it for a set up £30 max is better than f***ing up the bass cos something is seriously out with that set up mate sorry I cant be anymore help
