I just put in my first real practice session with her. It was supposed to be delivered Sat, but I missed the signature-required delivery twice and finally got it today. She's beautiful, just like in the pictures, great amount of light wear if you're into the roadworn look, which I am. Unfortunately I hate the strings that are on it (tapewounds) and don't have time to change them yet, but it has a great sound nonetheless. Action is lower than I'm used to, but you have to take the neck off to get at the truss rod so I'm too lazy to go through that tonight. I can't tell if there's a low fret or two on one string or I'm just pressing too hard, but it's playing better and better the more time I spend with it. Hopefully the truss rod works when I get at it, but it might not really need adjustment now.

I've been doing my own setups since I started playing almost fifteen years ago. Is there anything special I need to worry about on an old bass line this, other than don't move it too much all at once? Just from playing experience I can tell it's almost flat with just a little bow to it. It's very good but having it this low is requiring a little too delicate of a touch for me.
