Hi,
I've been perusing the old instruments on the Reverb, and I came across this description of a '64 Precision bass...
"With the exception of the solder joints that I had my tech clean up as they had become dry, it's all original and complete including the case."
Now, I don't get out much, and I frankly think that people who obsess over "original solder" need to get a life, but I've never heard of a solder joint "going dry."
Is it a real thing? Or possibly just a sleight of hand to obscure NOS pots being installed?
