Martin bass guitar
Posted: Thu Jan 30, 2020 11:50 am
Hi all, I am looking to repair and set up Martin bass guitar for a friend. I haven't checked the label yet but likely 70's vintage. It is definitely in need of a neck reset and likely a bridge doctor. I have done both jobs on a 70's D35 before. I haven't checked the truss rod yet to see if it works but will do so.
Does anyone know what the range of string height should be at set up? Relief? Other things I should look at? Bridge plate, whether or not the saddle is in the right location, etc.? Gathering info. Thanks,
