i've been getting a lot of clicking and buzzing from my bass and i'm trying to minimize that. i've already got my action set pretty high and it hasn't done all that much good. should i try to adjust my tross rod?
i'm also using 45's, i've been meaning to try some thicker gauges, hopefully that will help a little too.

The neck should curve up a little bit when the bass is all tuned up for minimal buzzing. Of course it's all preference. If the action is pretty high and your neck is relatively straight just work on playing lighter.
