ezbass Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 Novel, but I understand, from those in the know, that the strap over the front of the upper, rear bout, alleviates the problem somewhat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It only works if you wear the bass quite high I think, it certainly doesn’t work for me with this bass, it just pops out again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeEvans Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 If you don't spend much time up at the top of the neck you could put a strap.button on the lower horn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lfalex v1.1 Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 Top front neck plate screw position works fine for the bolt-ons. Nothing to stop you drilling a hole (!) for one of the Tokai is a neck-through. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayman Posted May 18, 2023 Author Share Posted May 18, 2023 That’ll be where I go with it, if I can’t put up with it as it is, although, I hate it when the top of the bass hangs away from your body. I’ve sold a couple of basses that did that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lfalex v1.1 Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 Ah... I tried all the holes (did I just type that in an Internet forum?) Not all at once, because the neck would fall off... If I used the upper rear-most screw, it didn't balance as well. Either of the lower screws caused what you're referencing; The top edge of the body tips away from you. Top front screw doesn't do this as there seems to be more mass slung below it than there is above it, and that prevents the dreaded tipping.
