Gibson Basses / Re: You've gotta give Herr Sixx some credit ...

Factory tuned to Sharlee D'Angelo's preference of drop-C tuning (C-F-A#-D#)

That strikes me as odd. I tune drop-C and it's C-F-C-G. Does A#-D# make any sense?

Nice bass though, I've always GAS'd for an Iceman

Gibson Basses / Re: The proper 3 point bridge setup
« on: April 01, 2008, 01:04:00 PM »
When I bought the bass the back studs were a bit higher than the front stud. I backed them down and brought the front one up. The bridge is sitting at an angle now, and it seems ok to me. The action is real low with no buzzing. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't doing any damage by having the bridge cocked back like that.

Also, relocating the strap button to one of the screws for the neck really helped with the neck dive. Just thought I would throw that in for good measure! ;)

Thanks for your help!

Gibson Basses / The proper 3 point bridge setup
« on: April 01, 2008, 11:00:37 AM »
It looks pretty simple right? Just adjust the 3 screws until you're comfortable with the action, or so it seems. I just purchased an Epi T-Bird and I'm new to the old school bridges. Is there a specific way to set these up? Or am I overcomplicating things?

Also, someone has an Epi Tbird for sale locally with a BAII installed, how the heck did that happen and is it even possible?

Thanks!
