You don't have to play devil's advocate in every post.

Yes, my bass had set-up problems but I don't think that you should judge someone's ability based on one set-up. Don was at the ISB convention, did you voice your opinion to him then?

Cheers.

Don did not visit me that I recall at the ISB and if he did, he didn't have a bass with him. If Don wants my opinion, he can come over here, show me something and ask for it. Until now, all I have been hearing is about your problems to match a string to the bass and get the bass properly set-up to your liking or workability. I have not seen your bass in person or played it. I can only go by all the posts you have been making about it.

I do have one question for you. When do you find time to play and practice?

If you don't mention your bass or other basses here on my forum, I will not start a thread to post an opinion about it, deal?

As far as my basses go, I usually just repeat the comments I receive from other people. Most of them top professionals and some top Luthiers. I do not post comments from students or beginner players as they have yet to learn a bit more before their opinions might be shared by their seniors.
