Hi Mica If it's possible, I would like a high C (instead of a low B) as the fifth string. Best regards Ivan | ||

We can do this for you. Do you think you will ever want to play with a low B in the future? | ||

Hi Mica I don't think so. Why? Can you do something differently? Best regards Ivan | ||

You would need to order a spare bridge and string nut slotted for the B-G tuning if you thought you might go that way. If we slot it for E-C tuning, you can always have the slots enlarged by a local guitar repairman for the B-G tuning, but you couldn't go back to the E-C tuning. | ||

Hi Mica Ok. Thanks for the clarification. But would it be possible to order the string nut and the bridge at a later time if ever needed? Best regards Ivan | ||

Not ones that are fitted to the bass. You could order the bridge (or just the saddles) later and shave them slotted by pretty much any repairperson. The nut blank is a bit more tricky, though a good repair person can do it. The nut blank is oversized, and needs to be fit to not only the width of the peghead, but the shape too. | ||

Hi Mica Ok, so if I want it done right I would need to order it now. How much would the spare bridge and string nut cost? Best regards Ivan |
