Congratulations, David! So good to see you finally got her. I'm glad that your little monster exceeded even your highest expectations. I'm sure she sounds as great as she plays!
Enjoy, have a wonderful weekend with your Stunning new Bass!
Mike, tho =]

Loving it but.
 
Mica warned me the bass was not going to like the trip.  Great low set up when I got it but can't get the B to stop buzzing.  Having trouble getting the tuner to recognize the string (think it's making contact at the first fret).
 
Mica said the truss rods should be the first line of attack.  I've loosened them nearly a half turn (in two steps) and it seems a bit better but not cured.
 
Next steps seem to be (1) wait a bit, and (2) if not fixed by waiting, go to Joey's post on set ups.  The Joey route seems excessive, as it was just set up at the factory, but I've got to get it working before rehearsal tomorrow.  Any other thoughts?

well dave  
was it like i told ya?

Dave,
 
    If it's any solace, I've experienced buzzing troubles with my Dragon's Wing (DW).  Most of it was due to the fact that I like light gauge strings (.40-.100).  This being said, it's the only bass I had to send back to the Mothership for a heat bend.  If you're using standard gauge strings, truss rod adjustments should take care of the problem.
 
    BTW, after the elves did the heat bend, my DW plays like buttah.  None of my other Alembics have given me the least bit of trouble, and when necessary, I make adjustments which work out just fine.
 
    Bottom line: make some adjustments, give it a couple of days, and hopefully that will fix it.  It has for the most part in my experience.
 
Good Luck!
 
Alan
 
P.S.  That is a beautiful bass.

The bass is unreal.  If you told me about a buzzing B, I forgot that.
 
It'll be my first set up, but it'll be a good chance for us to get acquainted.

Crossed with your post.  Thanks for the encouragement.  Will try to keep her here.
 
Buttah?  That sounds really nice.
