yorks5stringer Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Plenty on Youtube, quite a good piece by Crimson Guitars (Ben Crowe spoke at the Dorset Bass Bash). Check out the series about buying a cheap kit bass and the episode on sorting the neck/frets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoying Twit Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share Posted June 23, 2015 @Coldflows - how low can you get the action without buzz? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldflows Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 After raising the nut by 1mm its about 5mm at the 12 fret. It's only minor on a few frets at this stage but playable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoying Twit Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share Posted June 23, 2015 I'm hoping that at some time I'm going to be able to visit a luthier class to learn how to level frets. I bought my most recent Deko for this purpose, but haven't really gotten the hang of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CamdenRob Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Does anyone have a link that takes you to all the available deko instruments? I keep following links posted on this thread but it's a little difficult to navigate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CamdenRob Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 (edited) It was £25... Thinking about it, if I'd have bothered to review stuff I've bought previously I probably could have got it for nothing.

Andytre Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 i got one of those 5 string P bass's a while back on b-stock and i have to say apart form a little bit of a low output its a damn good bass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CamdenRob Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 (edited) Well I guess we'll see what £25 of brand new bass looks like... I'm quite intregued. The four string was enough for me I wasn't in a flamboyant enough mood for the fiver... I may fill out a few reviews tomorrow in preparation for the next bargain!

Maude Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I've just put an order in for a PJ four string, don't even know why I want it but it will become a project. I had some other small stuff in my basket and the PJ made it worth ordering. I'll see if the email comes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
