Send it back, get another one, it’s not right IMO.

What? Mr Myung is talking out of his rear end and my basses already do this? But he’s a renowned (for a value of renowned) bass player with a endorsement deal and everything. Ah, I think I see the light, or at least the 💰.

I remember reading somewhere where Sterling Ball said this should be the starting point for MM basses, sounded weird then, still does. My action is a hair over 2mm at the 12 fret, there is minimal relief (no rattles though) and I have this amount of adjustment left (I did lower the nut slots, however).

They selected the wrong bats, anyone who knows nothing could see that, not that I did.

Are the nut slots too high, mine were. Maybe a truss rod tweak too?

How’re you liking it so far? Oops! Just seen my NBD thread, as you were.

I’ve just seen a post on Instagram, where John Myung talks about the fretboard on his Bongo. It has roasted maple under the G&C strings and rosewood under the B-D strings. It appears that the higher strings sound brighter and the lower strings sound warmer. https://www.instagram.com/reel/CdptNRmoYFF/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

Maybe they thought it was a case for a Rob Allen Mouse.

Definitely a Marmite thing it would seem. I’m surprised commercial TV hasn’t tried to nab it (probably the format doesn’t lend itself to ad breaks).

Spot on. They should cut it short, have each nation stand there in a costume of their choosing and vote on that; just as irrelevant. Given the amount derision it receives, in this country at least, even from the presenters, I’m surprised it’s survived on our TV screens as long as it has. Maybe it’s cheap to buy and fills up the schedule once a year. Perhaps it’s a Marmite thing and I’m missing the point? No one died and it’s harmless I guess, providing no one takes it even slightly seriously. Hmm, I seem to have argued myself into a bit of a Volta-face. How red is my face?
