Prime_BASS Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 As some may know the neck on my sterling isn't erm has hard rock maple as it used to be, and as I can't just pickup a new one off the shelf I have to have a custom job done. Shuker wants my bass and I do not have a spare. And I want to try graphite(which is my only gas right now) Anyways I emailed Rob Green asking for a custom job and the chances etc. He emailed back saying that he is already working on one!! Very good for those of us with sterlings. Just thought I'd share the info! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
originalfunkbrother Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Nice touch mate, if I may ask, what is it about graphite that wants you to give it a go? I am a newbie when it comes to graphite, I'd like to know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime_BASS Posted February 7, 2012 Author Share Posted February 7, 2012 Stability mainly. The sterling has been the first bass I have been able to set up well, but the neck isn't stable and doesn't hold its adjustments very well. I walk nearly everywhere when there is rehearsals or gigs and so the bass undergoes lots of weather changes, and I'd rather not have to tweak the truss rod before souind check. As its still larlegly guess work. Also the "sound" isn't something I'm fussed about as its largley negligablezm juyst look up davidsins on youtube. He uses a ray with a status neck and without and it basically sounds the same. The looks and after trying a modulus funk unlimted just sealed the deal.
