I finally got a new TRB 6 JP2, it’s my first 6, so string crossing is going to take some time. I dig the 19 mm spacing, and it sounds fantastic, what a beautiful bass.
Does anyone have any preference for strings, especially to get a bit more volume out of the C string? I have D’Addario EXL 170s on it which are pretty nice, but I may try some Curt Mangans on it.
One slight issue is that I like low action, I adjusted the neck, but the C string saddle is all the way down. And the other saddles are very low... The nut also seems to be cut quite high on this bass, (not sure if this is just a Yamaha thing?) compared to some old Fenders and My Lakland 5. Anyone tried filing down the nut slots, or shimming the neck on a JP2?
