Very nice find. And yeah, I love the Warwick bridge and nut systems. Especially the bridge, best bridge I have ever seen.
The only annoying thing - be careful with the lockscrews for the bridge saddles (in the little hole on the front of the saddles.) Super easy to strip.
Yes, that wouldnât surprise me. Iâm pretty good at not stripping things. When you finally become aware of the actual designed torques for things and have to use a torque wrench, you discover how you overtorqued everything in your entire life before that.
Once youâve tightened aircraft wheel nuts to 150 ft/pound and leading edge screws to 25 inch pounds, smaller stuff like those saddle lockscrews get âtwo fingers and bugger all forceâ to firm them up.
Another trick is just knowing they are there, which will save frustration when your saddles arenât moving when you try and lower them 
Thatâs not only an awesome looking bass but what a story ! Knowing so much about a bass that comes into your possession must really be so special. Good on ya mate 
The brass just-a-nut arrived. I took off early to get it, picked it up from the post office and got home to fit it.
On checking it over, I discovered one of the setscrews had seized.
WTF? How does brass seize on a steel set screw?
With some blowtorch and lubricant persuasion, I got it out.
And itâs rooted. If I use it, Iâll just damage the damn thing further.
Iâll have to ask the distributors for another setscrew. Iâm not likely to⌠hold on a minute. Iâm betting the original plastic one has the same size setscrews.
Yehaa! They do! Iâm saved!
Razorblade job to get the base of the plastic one off and it came off perfectly.
Some superglue to position the other one andâŚ
Perfect! Letâs string it up andâŚ
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I will admit for a second, I almost cried.
If I didnât know you already had the skills to fix it I wouldnât laugh.
Actually I think you can just take the top off and turn it around, should be good
Not even joking, the Tedur Just-A-Nuts come completely apart, the top pops off nicely if you unscrew it all the way. If the brass is the same youâre fine.
You could also go for the left handed experience 
DAMN!!! It happened AGAIN!!
Itâs not often when Connie and I take a trip to the Big City of Macon, but when we do, there are always two stores that are on my list⌠The liquor store (stock up on Single Malt), and the Guitar Center (Just to play around). Thing is, I only get into the city about once a year so I have to make the best of it.
My latest addition⌠The Fender Special Edition P Bass⌠oh⌠and a new set of my favorite DâAddario XTâs to put on it.
Is that the Fender Limited Edition P-Bass?
Unfortunately, while the base is perfectly symmetricalâŚ
âŚthe top is not. Iâve asked for the top part of a right handed 5 string.
The Tedur just-a-nut ii is flat though, which makes it not work as well for distinctly defining the speaking part of the string. I did see it mentioned somewhere while reading about them that it was a design improvement.
It has ruined my weekend, which isnât a logical thing to say when I have so many other options to play on.
Yes it is @JerryP⌠Getting it set up for my style of play now. Had to adjust the pickups a bit (they were too low for me) so that I could get a bit of âthunderâ⌠Intonation is off a tad but Iâm gonna take care of that when I change strings anyway⌠otherwise, a pretty sweet deal on this particular series that ends today.
things are getting serious at last 
I saw it on the GC website. What type of strings are you going to use? Sorry for all the questions.
I blame it all on YOU @terb Laurent!!
Actually, what sold me more on the P is that I have way more control over the tones. After playing with my grandsons Squire for the past week, and messing with everything from set up to electronics, I found that with the single split coil pickups, I could change my tones from super boomy with a ton of dirt (Rock) to a soft mellow purr (Motown) mood by adjusting the height of each (or just one) of the split coils. Way more versatile than my Yamahaâs or IbanezâŚ
Never too many questions @JerryP⌠Going with the DâAddario XTâs. Nickel Plated Steel Round Wounds⌠I use them on my Ibanez SR500E and love the way they sound and play, and they seem to work well for me given the many different genre and styles of music that I like to playâŚ
The family is growing Bill, @Lanny,
They all look like they get on wellđ
Canât wait to hear a cover or two from the newbies.
Cheers Brian
Itâll happen @TNKA36 Brian!! Well, as soon as I get all the bugs worked out of this new one⌠Besides, I did manage to restock my supply of Single Malt Scotch today and I got a bit of âCatching Upâ to do 
âŚ
Now that surprises me. I love me a good P pickup too but I feel way more in control with my double-bucks and active EQ 
But donât get me wrong - I love P-bass tones and seriously the P is tied with humbuckers for me, love them both.
Thought the same thing @howard⌠BUT, when I discovered how the adjustments on each of the split coil pickups can change the tone and essence of each individual string, it was a real deal breaker for me. Hey, I LOVE my Yammyâs and my Ibanez, but they just donât have the versatility that a P bass has when it comes to overall control of sound. Remember though, that I am very âOld Schoolâ when it comes to making music and do not use any pedals or anything else to distort the sounds that I create. I use nothing more than the instrument, the strings on it, the onboard electronics, and my playing style to attain the tones and sounds that I create⌠Maybe itâs just the versatility of the split coil pickups that had me intrigued, I donât know,⌠What I do know is that I am enjoying another option to manipulating tone and sound without the use of any other electronic equipment⌠Something way cool for an old dude like myselfâ:rofl:.
Keep on Thumpinâ!
