It would be cool if Ken or any of the guys here that have owned KSB would do like a instructional setup video. I wonder if the setup process would be the same for the Neck-thru vs. Bolt-on construction?

I don't thrust sending my current bass to anyone never the less the new Addition!
For me, the set-up is different for every bass. How it vibrates determines how it feels. How it feels determines how I set it up. Not with measurements but with feel. I can close my eyes and set-up a bass and tune it by vibration by ear with a tuning fork. Not by machines or with rulers. We are supposed to be Musicians. So, use your hands and ears to adjust your bass, just like the way you play and make music, not with machines!!
