Leftieray, wonderful time capsule of shots. Please tell me what basses you're playing in those shots, as they look out of the ordinary.

I'm still experimenting with height. I'm finding some basses require a higher setup while others require lower, as others have mentioned. A T-Bird, for example, is almost impossible to play high unless you're a gibbon and have the arm's length to reach those first frets.
