It is incredible how things have evolved in the past 5 years!

Great videos! Can't wait to see if #3 comes out.
 
Gimme some neck

I have to admit, it took me 40 minutes of bending the neck of my 5-string fretless rockbass over my knee whilst gritting teeth & breaking beads on my forehead to get the action where it was supposed to be. Eventually I removed the neck and placed a folded playing card to add some tilt. Desperate measures! At least I didn't snap the neck but really excessive force was needed to bend in order to adjust the truss rod and straighten things out. It was made in China and cost £250.00 Guess you get what you pay for. The action is perfect now. No fret buzz whatsoever.

The neck on my RockBass is probably the best one I 've ever played.
