lucatus Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Hi there, hope anyone can help me. Today I was adjusting the neck of my Musicman Bongo, they have one of this pieces where you insert a lever perpendicular to the body instead of an allen kind... I¨ve been doing the adjustments for years on my guitars, but I¨m afraid I might have forced it a bit trying to tight it... Is there anything I can do to see if everything is fine?

Ou7shined Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Wind it back and see if the relief changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just checked and everything seems fine, although with these new strings (DR High Beams) I can´t have the neck as tight (lower action) as I´m used to, but is still comfortable! Thanks, guys!

They accentuated the mids too much - not ideal on a 'ray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still need to try at full volume, next Friday, band practice, lets see... Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though I was using a small Peavy combo they sounded great, full of punch and not too bright. But it´s true that I tend to emphasize mids on my sound... Cheers!
