sb14 is basswoodThanks for the info and if it is glue, that is great news for me.Is there any other way to double check that it is for sure glued on? The reason I ask is I actually heard that they are more likely to use epoxy overseas (so opposite of what your experience has been).
Also, I was told that the body on these is swamp ash or ash but I am not convinced by the sound. I think it's a great sound I just can't place it though. Anyone know about this?
ray34 and ray35 is swamp ash

how about just pulling the frets, filling the gaps and then do the jaco thing.. epoxy the whole fretboard?

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!

That would be a much easier way to go. Less chance for disaster.how about just pulling the frets, filling the gaps and then do the jaco thing.. epoxy the whole fretboard?

The first time I played a SB14, I thought it would make a good fretless.

I'm a left hander who plays right handed, so I guess that makes me confused.
