    trussrod adjustment:
    Click here for an image!
    less relief / flatter = lower action
    more relief / bow = higher action
    do NOT use cheap tools to adjust with. they might break and scrape up your pressious!
    also, if you are lucky enough to have a 100th namm sr4: the truss works the other way around on that one!

    I'm pretty stoked to try those!! I'm glad EB is introducing a coated bass string.
    I find it amazing that I can play all the wrong notes with such incredible accuracy.......

    Contact your luthier if your string tension remains stiff for more than 4 hours.............

    I've used the D'A------- coated strings and certainly the idea works well. Problem is the D guys sets are hard to find around here in anything other than 45-100 gauge.

    The EB geetar sets are readily available.

    Just put a set of Hybrid Slinkys on a bass and looking forward to trying the coated ones as soon as they are available.
