so i am thinking about buying a Geddy J Bass. ive played one and it felt GREAT! only thing is the neck, it feels great but ive read some horror stories about these necks..i read that it cant handle high tension strings and it warps easily..i know it comes with string gauges 45,65,85,105. I usually play a lighter gauge 45,65,80,100.will this matter? does anyone know if fender has made any improvements on truss rods for this bass? has anyone else had any issues with the neck on this bass> ? also is this bass worth the new price of $999??

If it comes with 45,65,85,105 & you use a lighter gauge, your strings will not cause neck problems. You may need it set up for that gauge, but that shouldn't be a big problem.
