- The reason I did a setup before changing strings and tuning machines was because I needed to make sure this on was worth keeping. Thanks again for Gary at Musician's Friend. You da MAN!

Word of advice for everyone ... check the electronics before going through setting up your bass. It'll save you wasting a bunch of time if the wiring or pickups are bad ...
Gorgeous guitar. Binging your channel. Very informative and enjoyable. Thank u
Thank you for watching!
"A ham sandwich amount of relief" is my new favourite phrase 😂
I stole it from Dave’s World of Fun Stuff. It’s Dave’s.
I have the 5 string version in honey satin. Gonna be ordering the 4 string version in the same color as my 5.
Love these basses.
Rock on Vic!
72 years young here still giging
I have the 5 string version of this bass. I love it! Overall great tone!
Love mine!
Nice
“Setup to play” and crammed into a box 2 minutes before quitting time on Friday!!!
Absolutely!
I had a stiletto studio 5 and a miss that bass now
Great video, watched to the end. Would you tell us again what are your "go to' machines?
Gotoh. I get them from Stewmac.
I took a gamble on a C-5 Plus and took delivery yesterday. It's... underwhelming. I just returned a $1500 ibanez that had lifting fret ends and between 6 to 8 high frets! I wasn't going to do a fret job on a $1500 bass that the factory chose not to finish. Well, the schecter also needs a fret job. But I feel a lot better busting out the leveling beam on a $649 new bass than a $1500 new bass.
Yeah that does stink.
My $300 Squire anniversary gold edition jazz bass and p bass have no issues. Such a shame in quality control for some of these other companies. I first ordered the p bass and was so impressed with it that I ordered the Jazz version. I play them each extensively and continue to be impressed by the quality and tone.
I dunno I really like Schecter basses.
Nice job sir. I have a option to buy a Stilleto bass 4 string that " needs to be wired " for 150 bucks...any thoughts sir?
Needs to be wired? Replace all the electronics with the proper EMG pickup set and preamp. Plug n play.
Looking to upgrade to the locking tuners, can you drop a link or post the exact name of the ones your using? perfect vid by the way, for my uses your vid was very helpful :)

Thank you so much!!! Happy New Year and I hope your enjoying all of your basses! I just recorded the bass for a track right after watching your setup vid - thanks again!@@stringmanguitars4329
Thank you!
When you say 20 and 12 for your measurements, what are we referring to MM or IN? I"m assuming you meant .012 and .020 in?
.020” I ALWAYS use inches. Your assumptions were correct.
@@stringmanguitars4329 Another thing, anytime I've seen tutorials on checking nut height they do .020 but while they are pressing at the 3rd fret. You check it open, what's the significance of doing it this way?
They are looking at .002 maybe fretting at third.
Thank you for the video. I have this exact one as well as the matching 5 string and got lucky that they were both set up "ready to play". At least in what I think is playable with what little knowledge I do have. One question though...when you did the string height adjustment with all being at 5/64...aren't the strings suppose to follow the neck radius? Setups are where I really lack the talent but am getting there. Thank you for your videos!
When every string measures the same height across the same fret, it is following the radius.
@@stringmanguitars4329 oh my God, of course it does. Jeez, dumb question, thank you sir!
@@seandrummond8861 no problem.
I'd never get away with 5/64. I've gotta do 7/64 bare minimum or I get so much banging of the string and huge buzz. I also play with a pick and have a heavy attack though.
@@NodakSavage it depends on your playing style. You can play aggressive without digging in like a gorilla.
Musiciansfriend/Guitarcenter has burned me with sending me bad equipment and then acting like I'm unreasonable. I usually use sweetwater nowadays.
Any thoughts on their fiver, fan fretted? Thx
Haven’t had one in my shop.
@@stringmanguitars4329they haven't sold a lot just yet. The model's fairly recent. There's a 2-3 month wait for those. Just asking 😁
The real question is, do you like her??
This one's awesome. Now if I can just figure out my wide angle lens and how to hook my Lumix up to a tv with HDMI....
