Sorry Mr. Bass, I'm not great at explaining myself. OK, wanted fretbuzz, is when I pluck an open string, let it vibrate and eventually it will give off a little buzz on the open string. There is no fretbuzz at the dusty end, but if I lower the action any more, the notes choke. The action is a little bit higher than I like between about the 7th and 14th frets. I'm going to shim it tomorrow night, after my mother has gone back home, and see what the result is.. Cheers, Karl.

Because the curve up at the dusty end is preventing me getting the action lower between 5th/14th frets.

Thanks folks, limited access to computer, mother here on Royal visit . No unwanted fret buzz. I set mine up like Sheehan. Pluck the string, let it vibrate and after a second or so, a tiny bit of buzz comes in. String height brought to note "choking" points, then raised a tiny bit. Neck relief, minimal, no more than 1/64th. I think I'm being a bit of a tart here to be honest. The best Precision I have ever had, is the one I got from you Mel. As you know the action is lower than a snake's belly. Yet even with that one, the fretboard is slightly inclined to the sky at the dusty end. Bugger it, when me Ma goes I'm just gonna shim it. It's not that it's bad, far from it, I just like a very low action. Bassists eh

Another zombie thread resurrection. My red P sort of curves up at the dusty end. There is a little relief in the neck but don't ask for measurements, my eyes will tell you to bog off If I shim it, I just can't get to grips with HOW this will make the fret board flat. Mr Red's fabulous diags don't have any with a fretboard that fractionally curves upwards at the high notes end. It is not the only Fender I have seen this on, so any advice gratefully appreciated, ta, Karl.

Took me about 15 or so gigs before I understood mine, but it's simply a superb cab.

Great band, loved them as a child. You realise you are responsible for me watching Dirty Dirty Creep Creep after that! She was certainly the object of this 12 year old's desire

Ah, thank you

GK MB500 into BF Super 12 V. As a starting point I use contour 12 o'clock, treble and high mid, cut at 10 o'clock, low mid and bass, cut at 11 o'clock. Then I set for room. I have had a year with this rig to come to this starting point. A few frustrations in that year
