Bro never showed how to bring the string up or down what a waste
I use coins all the time to set my action, glad to see I'm not the only one ????
Do you know if the truss rod nut is wielded on MIM P basses? I damaged it and wondering whether I can replace it or not by simply unscrewing. Thank you
Beautiful!
Do you measure from the bottom of the string?
5:41 Love that snap sound, almost as if you were using a pick. Is that a little fret noise, or do you pick with you fingernail? Or both? Love you Dave, you have taught this old dog a new trick or two!
My pbass came in today!! Love the nickle/dime trick to tie me over for the night.. thanks man
Why would kids be in the firewood?
I have no idea how you play with such low action…I use a minimum of 5/32 on the E. Do you have weak hands or something?
1:41 License to kill gophers… by the government of the United Nations…. man, free to kill gophers at will.
Looks exactly like my '75!
you could try a US nickel at the 12th fret…that medium low ( 2 mm) or take a 2.5 mm allen key and use that as a feeler at the 12th
Hey Dave, thanks for the videos, really informative.
I'm trying to lower the action on my precision bass. The bridge saddles are all the way down (can't go any lower). The neck looks straight to me, so I'm not sure if I should mess with it. Any suggestions on how to achieve lower action? It's a MIA body with a MIM Roger Waters neck strung with flats 45-105. Thanks a lot.
is that Roger Waters signature model?
Why at the 17th?
Hey, Dave, ever look into wooden pickguard? They're pretty neat! I have a maple on my mexican p/j with Dimarzio pickups. Really brightens it up!

Dave, I recently purchased a MIA J. I love it but I'm finding the tunes I'm practicing too are mainly P's. My question is.. There are a few used MIM P's for sale in my area. Would the sound of my MIA AS J sound better adjusted than a MIM P? At $400. would you recommend just getting a MIM P rather than keep adjusting my MIA J to try an imitate an authentic P?
Also, do you recommend a set up shop around the GTA? Cheers Man!!
5:40 Tighten up Dave!
The trick to adjust with the coins, can it be done with whatever string gauge?
THNX GOT IT DAZED AND CONFUSED AND HOW MANY MORE TIMES…..
WHAT WERE THE NAMES OF THOSE LED ZEPPLIN BASS TUNES YOU PLAYED??? THEY SOUNDED COOL AND WANT TO LEARN THEM ALSO…
Very helpful stuff. I am about to do my second build, a 50's P.
Loved the nickel and dime tip…EXACTLY what my bass needed, plays better than ever. Thanks Dave !!!
That neck would look real nice on my ash body p bass
Wow, subbed. Thanks for having such an awesome channel, man.
Good stuff!
i want to buy a set of feeler gauges, what range of sizes do i need to cover all guitar and bass eventualities? will a set of about 10 cover this or do i need a huge range, like 32 or something? cheers
i made my own guitar pot thing aswell! sticking it to the man!
Has this p bass got the s1 switch on it
Awesome dave thanks mate for the tips on the p bass
very cool,used to work with Paul Brown..think he is Van now…will def look you up…diggin the videos..are you giggin as well?
Enjoyed hours of your video…are you with 873? I am a carp and will be returning for work soon…will look you up for sure…what dept are you in?
Starting at 40 or 45?
Dave, the cover looks cool — but do you have to take it off every time you change the strings? Seems like you would.
