I think you right mate

Thanks for the offer mate, let me know how to pay you? I did find some old posts regarding the on a google search that was the same experience but it was a while ago that it happened, same strings

I have fitted them the same way I always do, yes there is a kink but I’ve never had this happen in over 40 years? Both times it has happened in the last week it was preceded by a very loud crack

Checked scale length and it is correct, long scale standard

E string on a new set unwinding at tuner end , see photos, this has happened with the replacement sent by Dunlop as well, not has a problem with other brands, I also checked for free movement in the nut slot when fitting the replacement, the photos are taken just after the point that their was a cracking sound when tuning up

Bought a Fender P-bass from @uncle psychosis unbelievably well packed and insured great communications highly recommended to deal with Thanks Sam all the best, Jez

Your right, I’ve sold plenty of stuff on eBay and always made a counter offer to people, I should remember that we can’t expect everyone to be as lovely as myself !

He could have made me a counter offer though?

I’ve put minimum bid on just incase lol

I was expecting them to make counter offer lol
