Squire Precision Bass – Setup

A nice bass just in need of a little tweek here and there.

SANYO DIGITAL CAMERAThe basic principles are the same, just a few subtle differences.  Sadly the frets are a little uneven so I’m not going to get a really sweet action without a little buzz.SANYO DIGITAL CAMERAThe neck had rather too much set so I’ve flattened it out a little.  I’ve left a little because of the uneven frets, to try and minimise the buzz.SANYO DIGITAL CAMERAThe action at the 1st fret isn’t too bad so I’ll leave that alone.SANYO DIGITAL CAMERAThe action at the 12th fret was a little high so I dropped that down a shade..SANYO DIGITAL CAMERAalthough the treble side was a little low..SANYO DIGITAL CAMERAWith the outside strings set I adjusted the other two to match the fretboard radius..SANYO DIGITAL CAMERAWith it playing nicely I adjusted the intonation to make sure it’s in tune all the way up the neck and lastly the pickup height to make sure the output from each string is balanced.

Another one done…
