![]() I have a Washburn SB 40 (which is probably what Old Man Riva's referring to) which is identical apart from having a 2x2 headstock and (unfortunately) being passive. It’s an awesome bass that reminds me a lot of my Yamaha BB2000 in terms of the solidity of the construction, the high quality materials and the attention to detail, but unlike the BB, it doesn’t weigh as much as the moon. ![]() Would it make sense to get the saddles professionally filed down, or would a replacement bridge be less sacrilegious considering the bass is original and in amazing condition? The bridge looks a bit like the original Badass and is seriously hefty. ![]() The knobs almost seem to be a kind of Wal-like filter but I’m really not sure.īridge - The action is currently quite high at the bridge (the strings at the nut are nice and low without buzz and the neck is true), even with the saddles at their lowest setting. ![]() Preamp - What’s going on there? The large toggle is a pickup selector, the knob nearest the bridge pickup is master volume and the knob nearest the bridge itself I believe is some kind of tone control, but the other two knobs and three position mini switch have me stumped. I recently picked up this Japanese gem, and wonder if I can pick the brains of any Washburn aficionados out there.
