Very true. But at the end of the day it’s still wood and gonna do wood things 
Agreed. My MIJ Fender P reissue has the truss rod accessible only from the neck. Argh.
Just leave it strung like a bass, or a compound. Or the Hoyt Formula RX F4 limbs in my TV room that literally haven’t been unstrung in a decade…
More happy days of high humidity, yay!! 
Rattle rattle, yay yay yeah…
Time to do the Allen Wrench Dance! 
I thought I would only need one bass guitar. I now think someday I will buy a model with roasted maple neck just to use during the summer months. 
Get a Sire model with a Roasted Maple neck and you’ll not only get stability but also a super-comfortable, easy playing bass.

Don’t bother with a Sire. Just run your action really high at about 6mm
No more fret buzz, no more adjustments. Plus you’ll really strengthen your fretting hand.

That’s a little too high for me (6 mm). I prefer having to adjust the trussrod, though I have to do it often with these humidity changes.
I will eventually buy a second bass, but it probably won’t be too soon. I have time to research and think. After I complete the BassBuzz course, I’ll take some Talkingbass courses, then after that a better bass could be a suitable reward for completing more courses and sticking to it.
I think he was joking 
Yeah it’s only a 5 minute tweak, I have to do it like monthly around seasonal boundaries. Just part of owning an instrument.

Yes, something we get used to.

This image is too physically painful, and should be under a blurry spoiler-click-at-your-own-risk filter.
