My feelings of abandonment & rejection are the result of a traumatic experiences at a strict single-gender school, and those are what drives me to don my gasmask and oilskins, grab my rubber-handled clawhammer and go out killing on a warm summer's evening. It's very cathartic and I'd recommend it to anyone. J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spinynorman Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 It's a trust rod, though, how can you not believe him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat Burrito Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 I think all bar one one of my basses are much older & now I'm worried I haven't changed the truss rods! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warwickhunt Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Something niggling away in my memory banks about this one! Safe to say a truss rod costs next to nowt (even if you get one from Warwick), which begs the question why hasn't one of the previous owners of this bass had it repaired... especially as it is so easy to do! Thinking about it, I'm sure that one of the owners of this bass asked questions about the truss rod over on the Warwick forum and if they haven't had it fixed then safe to say it's stuck and may well need the fingerboard off (or a replacement neck).
