I used to have a "proper" 1962 USA Precision. It had reverse tuners and clay dots which I see this Reissue doesn't have. Luckily I never had the need to adjust the truss rod. I kept it for about 30 years before selling it--which was my biggest regret. It was by far the best playing and sounding bass I have ever had.
I had a Fender Precision 1962 vintage re-issure that I bought new in 1991. Never needed any adjustments (well,one little turn the 2nd year) and it always played and sounded great. I sold it 3 years ago and cry when I think about it. The best bass I've ever owned ! What was I thinking ????
Looks just like my 1970 Precision. Oh ho I wish I still had it. I traded it for a Yamaha classical guitar. I realized I couldn’t be a one man band with only a bass. Now I have basses and guitars. Thank you David. You’re the best.
Except no tug bar. Or the other covers. I still have a picture of me playing it - somewhere
My beloved Stingray is going through a complete refret and fretboard sanding to correct a nasty twist in the neck right now. I'm watching every setup video I can to calm the nerves
Simple, perfection.
I always make a cut out in the pickgaurd at the truss rod adjust area.
I did that one time. I used a big drill bit and then I filed it with a rat tail file on an angle. Then I cleaned it up with fine sandpaper. It wasn't perfect but it worked out well enough.
@@sd3falco Yes, I always take the pick gard of to work on it but I mark it before I remove it.
Dremel to the rescue👍
You had me at “P bass”.
That would make a great TShirt..
You had me at not being able to adjust the truss rod unless you remove the neck.
Wow you actually played some Maiden. You rock dude.
Sounded like Killers but I don’t think it was.
I can smell the summer storm an Dave playing that p bass in his ampeg SVT 👍
Took the neck off my brothers P bass, looks like it's a '69. Neck is fine, but I can't see the truss rod... Is this an issue? Shone a torch in there and it's all OK. Hadn't taken it onboard but there's no scratchplate. Doh...
I like your bass playing! Thanks for teaching us to care for guitars and basses! :)
Wow…a music store that’s closed on Saturday? You’d think it would be their busiest day of the week…🤷♂️
busy day is 24 hours a day on line
Agree 100%... I got so tired of pulling the neck off to adjust the neck of my Geddy Lee CIJ, I made a jig and routed out the body & pickguard so all I need use is a screwdriver to tweak when needed.
What I find even more crazy than the heel-adjust truss rod is that some people insist they continue manufacturing guitars this way for “vintage appeal”. WTF?
It's no big deal, a truss rod is something you should not mess with. Set it and forget it. If it needs adjustment,then that's life. I have one bass that has perfect action for the last 8 years, and never have touched the truss rod once.
@Grant Koeller
I wish that were true for all situations.
I travel to all parts of the globe and depending on the changing conditions (temps, humidity, altitude) a neck adjustment is almost always needed.
If a bass/guitar never leaves the safe confines of home... You're good (for the most part).
But go from London to Los Angeles for a gig and your beloved instrument will be doing a complex yoga pose when you open the case.
My Music Man Stingray (with roasted maple neck) seems less susceptible, but it's still moved a bit from region to region.
Nostalgia is horse shit.
Love a good cop out. Keep em coming…
That is the epitome of a beautiful and simple bass.
Couldn't agree more!
There is a reason...
Simple? Like removing the neck for truss rod adjustment? Spoke nut is the way forward
You can remove the neck in less than 3 minutes, so no big deal to adjust truss rod. Loosen strings, remove 4 bolts.
after 10 tries no fun
Triumph was a great band.
@David Achorn But a mostly annoying motorcycle brand in the 70s... leaky crankcases and f#@$ed-up Whitworth nuts &bolts...
Many are scared to pop the neck off. I encourage people to not be afraid. Instead I suggest that they read the neck under the usual 440 tension, and then read after the strings have been removed. Take the neck off and give her 1/2 turn and bolt her back up. String it up and simply read it again…and just go from there. It’s not so bad and you gain experience with every bass you do this to.
if anyone is interested, i have a beautiful 1996 "foto flame" p-bass for sale. no play time and no cracking. few small nicks and a scratched knob from bad storage is about it....
Why no access? Simple. Because it’s not made by the other Japanese guys at Yamaha!
We can forgive Leo this time, as the guy was a genius!
It looks like the neck is misaligned. The E string has a lot of space to the upper edge, and the G is closer to the lower edge. Is it my impression or there's something wrong with Fender's QC?
How you can champion a guitar which requires you to remove the neck for truss rod adjustment… is beyond me.
I think you're a Iron Maiden's fan, a detailed analysis your bass part
I have a MIJ Jazz bass, and I hate the fact that you have to take the neck off to give the truss rod a turn. Just lame.
Peterson StroboPlusHD is pretty good. I know Dave is using one. Stroboscopic tuner is the only way to go.
I have a lefty 1990 version of this bass B) Same sunburst finish & everything.
Are the Japan models as good or better than American?
Hidden truss adjustment?
No thanks.
I will never own a bass or guitar with that debacle.
Nice, clean, simple...I like it
Thanks Dave
You bet
Canadians are the nicest people.
Hi from the UK🇬🇧
In the words of French-Canadian wrestling legend Pat Patterson, "That neck is banana"
In the words of American presidential candidate Pat Paulsen, "Sure; why not?"...
Couldn't help myself. As soon as you said "this is gonna sound good", I responded, "Of course. It's a '62 P-bass!"
Like you're going to hear me in Canada. 🤦
I can watch and listen to you work on these guitars all day! It's so relaxing!
That's a nice bass!
When you unscrew the bolts for the neck, do you use a power screwdriver or a hand screwdriver?
Use power ..the driver has a torque setting
Excellent Bass
💯
Really nice looking p bass sounds good too. I have 78 American fender p bass in ebony bought it new in 78. It's mint still because I never played it on stage. Fender should be shot for you having to take neck off to set it. Only had to change my neck once in 45 years. People keep them strung and in tune always and out of the case in your home in nice Temps and you want have to mess with the neck. Thanks dave for the video. I always enjoy
Can't go wrong with a P Bass. Cheers!
💙👊😎
"Be good to each other and cheers, folks." This is the hello/goodbye we all need in these trying times. I don't know what's up with the haters, Dave is the most positive human being around. Be cool stay in school.
people don't want honest..they wanna hear what they wanna hear..was always a problem at work an honest opinion turned into a complaint..that is why I just started sayin THAT IS A STUPID IDEA and we are not doing that
@@DavesWorldofFunStuff 👍💪
@@DavesWorldofFunStuff Union strong, let me hear it, baby.
If it's a copy where is the skunk stripe on the neck? Good work tho
expert group..thank you
So glad you passed the wasp. That’s a nice bass.
Thanks 👍
✌🏼🍻
I got to play a Honest-to-God 59 P-bass for awhile. It was a burst that had been rattle canned black. But the neck was fairly straight and it sounded so sweet I didn't mind the buckle rash on the body or the cigarette burns on the headstock. Sure wish the cute little blonde who owned it hadn't broken up with me!🤣😂🤣
I had the same relationship with my ex's dad's Ken Smith bass.
I prefer the spoke wheel adjustment if it's at the heel, like on an EBMM.
Definitely👍
that is a beautiful bass!!!!!!!!!
The bridge saddles on the base can be flat because they only have one string. However on the guitars they hold up two strings. The only way they can be flat is if there is no radius on the fret board like a clasic guitar.
yah yah yah yah
It's only raining for you on Sunday b/c it rained here on Saturday... (I have receipts, mind...)
Good job Dave!
Thanks David.👍
Great video.
Like deployed 👍
Why this obsession with Solo Guitars?? They sell Chinese garbage. I'm starting to think you're getting a kickback form the Chinese military.
well visit the site..they sell many things..the stock ALL FENDER AND GIBSO AND GRETCH parts..and if you have no money you get what you can .. STFU..we have no resource like this in Canada..thanks for the bs COMMENT
While I'm at it GFYS
Actually it's a Fender branded Squier.
wrong
In most cases... The MIJ Fenders are far superior to the MIAs.
Probably why there are so many MIJ fanatics.
@@DavesWorldofFunStuff made in Japan by a contracter not by Fender. Right.
is it me or does the string height look a little high still?
