I follow Rob DiStefano's prescription for setups. I check nut relief first, then neck relief to basically make sure the neck is very close to flat, after this, action is pretty much left up to the saddles unless I want to shim it too.
I wrenched on the guitar for some time trying to remove some of the bow. I think that I have the relief at a decent point.
Probably a fret issue then?
Have others had a similar problem? Is that "growl" pretty normal on a bass? My biggest problem with it is that I play at a low volume and get to hear all of that racket. It doesn't sound so nice when it isn't coming out of a speaker.
