    1950s Bass - is it?

    My first thought was Eastern European, but looking closer, I'm leaning towards home-made.

    Fault or not Fault? Thomann`s customer service

    If the bass is faulty, and it seems like it is if it won't tune up then it needs to go back.

    He told them he wanted a new, different bridge. Why on earth would a shop do that for free? Does this mean if you buy a cheap bass that's neck heavy you can ask for a set of Hipshot ultralites to fix this ;-)
    [/quote]

    [b]Because I cant set up intonation on it with badly mounted bridge???[/b] And If I move it will expose the holes???
    Please read first post before making that type of comments Sir. Thx

    [u]It could be and easy and cheap fix done by me[/u] but they refused to cooperate so it goes back - who is not making money here?

    I`m a foreign man but I think my English could be understood somehow...

    .... case is closed and please do not say I want something for free...

    Fault or not Fault? Thomann`s customer service

    Gentlemen, I`m going to send it back. I have received a new (brand new) bass with a bridge screwed too far from the nut. Under the bridge I found two rows of holes MADE in FACTORY. What seems to be unclear?

    Yes I can move it to the first row and fix intonation issue but WILL EXPOSE the holes drilled TOO far from the nut....

    Case closed. It was last time where I bought a bass online....

    Cheers,
    Tomas

    I'm sorry but I get the feeling that there's something not said in this thread? Thomann have very recently been tops with helping me out in a very friendly and supportive way. Was the other Squier you looked at also fretless? If not I think Pete has a good point.

    Again, is it my fault I play behind lines? Is it my fault that bass has 2 sets of holes?

    Is it friendly help?:
    [quote]Hello Tomas,

    The guitar service department have an answer for you regarding the bridge.

    The only option is to place another bridge on the base. But you have to buy it as [u][b]it`s no product fail[/b][/u]. I think there will be no bridge that fits 100% to the holes which are already in the body. So you have to drill some new holes for fixing the bridge.

    This needs to be done professionally. Maybe we can find a fitting bridge for that if you want to do it like that. For that it would be nice to have the measures from the ground plate and the screws (length). We could also do a quote for it if you want us to do it for you.

    Please let us know how you wish to proceed.

    Kind regards,

    Adam W.
