Evangelion has some of the best bad guy designs ever. The robots are cool, too.

LOL Nope. :D

Speaking of cool baddie designs, I really liked Rahxephon ones.

Fixed the low E string popping out of the nut with this cool thing Fender makes. You just put it as the washer or under the washer in my case since the hardware is black. Adds a string tree with no extra holes and such. :D

That thing is cool. You and me might have to have a talk about string winding, though.

Got a new neck for it. I think the issue is because it has a Jazz bass nut width which is squeezing the strings in tighter. I got an Allparts tele bass neck and dyed and aged it. It fit perfect and no nut issue now. :D
