The Unauthorized Guide to Setup Your J or P Bass (DVD)

The information in The Unauthorized Guide to Setup Your J or P Bass from Great Nutshell Productions equips you to identify and correct most issues involving string buzz, action, and intonation that affect your J or P bass.

Your setup is the key to achieving better and faster chops, more sustain, fuller tone, greater comfort, and greater personal satisfaction with your bass guitar.

You can have your tech perform your setups for you, but in reality one setup does not fit all. This is because of differences in playing style, string choices, string gauges, along with personal preferences and more.

Learning how to perform a basic setup on your bass will pay you back many times over. Even if you continue to use your guitar tech, understanding these principles will help you to better communicate your needs and desires. That is exactly what this DVD will do for you.

This DVD is packed with tons of foundational information. The first half covers the what and why. What is a truss rod and why is it important? What are your choices in strings and why they are different? What is intonation and why it will never be perfect? The Unauthorized Guide to Setup Your J or P Bass seeks to answer these questions and more.

The second part of this DVD takes you step-by-step through a basic setup of your bass. From bridge adjustment to the final intonation, this DVD will show you that most any bass can play even better when it's setup just for you, by you.
