I sold my Steinberger in order to get a Kubicki. I haven't been able to find one yet.
Seeing auctions like this one and that C64 make things tough....

Do we have a problem with these basses if a truss rod snaps?

Oh yeah.

Im no luthier, but the only way I see to change the rods would be to remove the fingerboard. This would be a good question for Paul W.

We just have to be careful I guess.
