Man, this bass has been at Guitar Rez forever. Has anyone tried it out before? Looks interesting, although there is no power supply with it. http://www.guitarrez.com/usedhtml/usdals1bass.html |

That's my old bass. I sold it to them a while ago for $2500. It's big, heavy and has a maxed out truss rod. With low-tension TI Jazz rounds, the action is low enough to be very playable. Bill

What does a "maxed out" truss rod mean?? Maximum tightness?? |

Looks like a sibling to my Series I guitar. They made quite a few instruments with birdseye maple top/backs in 76 from what I've seen. |
