If you can find one, Ampeg Dan Armstrong Lucite

The Woody is cool though; maybe it was just a lemon?

Oh, Epiphone or Gibson EB-0]]> Bass Players Discussion DemoEtc https://guitarnoise.forum/bass-players-discussion/attention-epiphone-allen-woody-owners-users/#post-206116 https://guitarnoise.forum/bass-players-discussion/attention-epiphone-allen-woody-owners-users/#post-206068 Sat, 28 Oct 2006 19:37:29 +0000
Cool lookin' bass, too. Short scale basses rock! :) I'm saving up for a Birdsong ... maybe next year.]]> Bass Players Discussion slejhamer https://guitarnoise.forum/bass-players-discussion/attention-epiphone-allen-woody-owners-users/#post-206068 https://guitarnoise.forum/bass-players-discussion/attention-epiphone-allen-woody-owners-users/#post-21407 Sat, 28 Oct 2006 17:03:03 +0000
I bought one about a month ago. It's beautiful and plays like a dream, but I kept having problems with the input being somewhat loose and string buzzing. After 2 adjustments by 2 different guitar guys (where I bought it...not known for "servicing" guitars!), I took it to my new guitar tech who informed me that the truss rod was bent and that I should take it back. I did, and after some argument (I was a few days past my 30) they took it back and ordered me another one.

My question: Has anyone else experienced any similar problem(s) with this particular bass? My guitar tech said that it may be a batch problem and that I may have to order it repeatedly before I get one that's right. I really love the short scale, sound and playability on this bass. And I have no second choices re: a different short scale bass. I have 3 long scales, 1 of which is fretless, and really want a short. My new Allen Woody hasn't come in yet, but if it has the same problems then I'm gonna start thinking of other guitars to take its place, I guess. :(

Any comments, alternative bass suggestions, etc. would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!]]> Bass Players Discussion musica23 https://guitarnoise.forum/bass-players-discussion/attention-epiphone-allen-woody-owners-users/#post-21407
