Adding a Professional Inspection and Setup for Your Bass Guitar
Simply buy the bass and send it to my shop. It's very easy to have the bass sent to me and, in some cases, shipping might be free~!
Professional Inspection and Setup consists of inspection for defects and playability as well as total body, fretboard, and hardware polishing with Dr. Duck's Axwax, adjustments of neck relief, tuning, intonation, string action, and pickup height for maximum output. This means the neck is also removed to inspect the pocket for debris from the factory. You'd be surprised at the chips I find that would ultimately throw off a proper setup of the bass.
Any parts, such as new strings, or upgrades to electronics (for example) are extra. We can talk about that as you plan your purchase. There are many parts and services are advisable.
Payments for Services are only made with a Postal Money Order due to the fees my merchant credit card company (CCNow.com) charges. They take 5% plus on the total Gross plus shipping, so it really hurts going through them for this part of my business.
IF your bass is delivered to me with defects, I might choose to fix these if they're simple (no charge to you) . . . or I can return the bass to the factory or warehouse for another, thereby eliminating your headache of having to deal with the added time and expense of repackaging, reshipping, etcetera.
Most bass guitars are not in the Buzzard's Bass Shop inventory. I am the middle man who provides peace of mind and produces a professional setup so you receive a bass guitar ready to play as soon as you open the box.
The time involved takes an average of one week but may take anywhere from one to two weeks depending upon which warehouse the bass is located. You and I will be in one-to-one communication every step of the way.
