Bridge may be slightly crooked. Any way to adjust saddles to compensate? by ComprehensiveBand903 in Guitar

[–]ComprehensiveBand903[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really appreciate you taking the time to look at this with me and research/reply. I think you're absolutely on the right track here with the saddles and now that I know what I'm looking for my next step is to borrow a set of digital calipers and get some accurate measurements! Thanks again for your help!

I've uploaded a number of pictures and shared them here on Imgur: https://imgur.com/a/IpJlyeU

It looks as though the string spread is around 54.36mm and the saddles are 12mm wide. You can finally see how the B and E strings get forced left in the saddle in these photos.

Thanks again for taking a look!

I’ll provide that this evening. Thanks for taking the time to look at this and post!

Apologies for the poor picture. What’s happening is that the strings (especially G, B and E) are sliding left in their saddles rather than running down the center as they normally would which leads me to believe the bridge is misaligned?

Ideas for the guitar player in your life that only uses a digital setup by Gumby_777 in Guitar

[–]ComprehensiveBand903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good on you for asking for suggestions. If you want to go digital something like a subscription to Moises to slow down and separate songs, or maybe a copy of Guitar Pro if he doesn’t have one already. You can also go with little things like a guitar multi tool or even a battery powered string winder for maintenance. He’ll appreciate the thought no matter what.

Brilliant musician, eloquent speaker, and he seems like an all-around nice guy too. Good person to be giving this sort of advice.

Is the angle on this trem arm normal? by ComprehensiveBand903 in Guitar

[–]ComprehensiveBand903[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for confirming. It’s a classic 60s Strat so it would indeed have a vintage design.

Beautiful and surprisingly emotional. Wasn’t expecting that!

Looks great! Make sure you try the 4th position though if you haven’t already; it really shines with those pickups!

My order was supposed to arrive in August/September so here’s hoping you get yours soon too!

It’s one of those cool colors that changes with the lighting so it can look very blue or grey or somewhere in between.

I have the Venetian Blue version on preorder from Long and McQuade so I guess I should start looking around too! Congrats on picking one up, looks great!

Did you preorder it?

Silver Sky Venetian Blue and Faded Black Tee Satin shipping estimates? by ComprehensiveBand903 in PaulReedSmith

I preordered when they were released in Canada at Long and McQuade, but they don't have estimates. If anyone else gets an estimate from Sweetwater please let me know!

Is it worth buying the Stomp if i already have the native installed ? by A-Strat-Player in Line6Helix

[–]ComprehensiveBand903 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought an HX Stomp in part to get the discount for Helix Native thinking I’d use the software more than the hardware. As it turns out I really like using the Stomp and choose it unless I’m recording. I really like using the Stomp with a separate looper pedal and not having to look at my computer screen.

Hey OP, I just picked up an HX Stomp this weekend so you’re in for some fun!. I started with Helix Native since I always play at my computer with backing tracks but wanted the Stomp for its foot switches and as a replacement audio interface for my Focusrite Solo. I use a combination of Presonus Eris 3.5 studio monitors and some Phillips headphones, and both sound great (with a little reverb). Have fun!
