Jeffrey's Old 4004
Posted: Sat Mar 24, 2007 8:16 am
I felt that since I mentioned the one year anniversary of buying this bass in another thread I should post some updated pics. There have been some changes since Jeff and Chris owned it, I've struggled with liking the toaster/B string combination and that resulted in going back to hb1's. I also went through a bunch of B strings until I found the LaBella Hard Rocking Steels, WOW...they make all the others sound and feel like ****, I highly recommend them.
Here's the bridge, it's an Allparts base with Hipshot saddles, about a 2 1/2" spread.
Here's the trussrod access routes RIC did when Jeff had some problems.
Where do you put a fifth tuner? Well here's where I put it and it's worked great so far, thanks to RIC for putting lots of meat in that headstock.
The black silk in the last pic is the LaBelle .128 taper core B, the rest are DR Hi Beams.
