Is this FIXABLE? not (FLEXABLE:)


man I tell ya! I hope nonoe of you ever expeirience my probs right now,my dna is makin me nuts nightmares for weeks literaly.
you see I have a slight bow in only the treb side of neck from about the 14 fret up to 20! the bass side is like the arrow perfect..but when i try to truss it out what happens is that my bass side begins to hump! and this makes for the worst *guitar ive ever played! i m ajusting ever 15 -20 min.! i cant let loose on it my creativity is crushed by this somtimes i dont even play in hopes that itll be better *tomorrow.
wich is never the case.. ive let chesbro know of this "defect and they say its *the wheather.. i believe to be bull ****
its always been there and does not go away. I do not think it will. even though its slight, for some reason i can totaly tell its screwed up. its a feel thing ya know?.
* i think i should get a new neck but *.... they will prob not think it warrants *a new one is there anyway this is fixed? does anyone know??? *what should i do. i do not want to give up my dna. i will not its mine *but i want it right! yaknow *do you all think its to much to ask?
how is *chesbro planning to "fix:" it can they without replacing *the neck with a straight one?

man, sucks to be you. * thats why i didnt buy one of those P.O.S.'s. *pretty lame that IBZ can put out all these great guitars and then totally drop the ball on the biggest, baddest, coolest flagship of their whole line. *i have a jem7v and a UV777bk that both play themselves, so i cant empathize, but i sympathize.

I'm sorry to hear about your problems man, that would kill me, but, I think I have the solution, send it to me, I'll trade you for a killer DY!!! :biggrin:
Just buggin, unless you want me to be serious
how bad is the bow? *
If it's not really major (less than .015") *you might be able to have the frets done so the fret heights are arrow straight. *It won't solve the neck, but it will help you to set a lower action without fret buzz. *Other than that, you can have the frets pulled (a really ****ty thing to have to do to a $4000 guitar) and have the fretboard sanded then refretted. *The inlays should be plenty deep to have a minor (and I mean minor) bow taken out of one side.
It sounds like you are really fussy, I know what that's like, so am I, look at the Action post to see the setups on my guitars. *I spend around 6 -7 hours on a guitar before I'm happy and that includes refinishing the frets until I'm happy with them.
Good luck, and if you want a DY for you DNA, e-mail me

Hoshino's reponse is a refret to cure the problem, if the refret doesn't cure it, then they'll replace it with a new neck.

Shawn, don't call a DNA a POS.

Ditto. *P.O.S. is a pretty extreme word dude. *Im sure you dont really mean that. *Once the neck is attended to, you're attitude will change Im sure.
Be proffessional when you deal with them, because no one likes to deal with a screaming consumer. *They're less likely to help you if you're an @ss to them.

reply before i crashed. i can say i feel better ,hearing your kind words and helpful attitudes .
Th dna will be sent back as soon as i get u.p.s money.
(still broke payin for DNA)but no more than a week from now.
P.O.S * * No way man its the coolest realy it is, I just happend to get a bum neck, it happens.i hopeful that it will be rectified with a new neck(i guess as long as chesbro feels it so .
yelling and screeming do not get things done .True
the shop i bought *from wont allow me back in the store.
i went there very calmand they said well lets see it right so i opened case and as soon as they said " well it wasnt like that when it left this store as though i had done somthing,then there employee chimed in with yeah ill vouge for that, then another gfuy said man its not bad, i reach down deep in the pain and got my best death metal/blackmetal voice lol you shouldve seen them they all got scared lololol i started screaming obsenities very loud top of my voice !!!!!
so they refused to help me and im not allowed back again they called the cops too
but so many people will not go there any more now
and i know ill see *someone there somewhere
i just felt they were tryin to screw me as theyve been doing from the first prob.
I Know have to deal direct fdrom chesbro for this so .....
ill let you know what happens k?
but i think dale from chesbro is a reasonable man and will see to it that *a new neck is *had (very cool in the past and a master at what he does.
bye now all thanks again.
