Hi Guys
Through a guitar amp sounds ok but obviously thin. Plays crap at the moment the action isnt the best - may have to shim the base of neck ( which is straight as) as there is too much angle on the neck and the action is pretty high. Will have a crack on the weekend to fix the issue.
Tony
Hey Tony, are the bridge saddles wound down to minimum height ?
I'd suggest unscrewing the neck and make sure the neck pocket is clean and sand off any drill shavings from the neck heel. Also make sure the neck screws are tight and the neck heel is seated flat against the neck pocket.
Failing this sounds like you need a shim. I can't remember what the action of my IB5 is like, I can check it out tonight
