Hello Everyone I really need your help,
Here's how the story goes.
I took the strings off my bass, put it
in it's case and left it their for more
than a month. When I re-strung it,
the action was so low, that anywhere I fretted it,
I got major clanging.
I would adjust it, but awhile back my truss
rod was stripped. So what should I do,
I really really really don't want to buy a
new neck.
I was talking to a guitar maker, and he said
re-string the bass but tune all the strings
a whole step up (F#,B,E,A) put it in it's case,
and leave it for 2-3 weeks, and that should straighten it out.
What do you all think?
Thanx in advance,
Greg P
