    New Ball Day

    Got my used Sub1 today. Pretty mint shape. A couple small nicks on back of neck and body. Need to get a trem arm. Hopefully EB has one for sale. Cut off strings and oiled board, was really dry. Will get it strung up later this week. Neck is super smooth. X12375

    Pics are from my phone

    Any idea when X12375 was made? Do you have to use a screw driver to loosen/tighten locking tuners?

    Nice one - that neck will come up great with some EB fretboard conditioner.

    Subs are great (and very underrated) guitars.

    Nice, great score, looks good, yes a small screw driver losens the locks and place your serial number in the sticky above for serial numbers and Dan or someone from EBMM will let you know your DOB etc.

    For loosen/tighten the locking tuners, I just use a pick (and jazz pick very wide)

    Congrats man. They are awesome. I support your decision for Seymour Duncan although my Sub1 was pretty dark sounding and even installing 500k pots didn't help much to open an outlet for all the frequencies. I am sure there will be a lot to discuss in the Sub1 Owners Forum.
