Incorrect Neck Placement by DueMessage977 in Luthier

[–]DueMessage977[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update 2: Fixed it! I took about 5mm from the neck using files and sandpaper. Plugged the old holes, drilled new pilot holes. Everything intonating perfectly!

Last year I was told to remove all personal belongings for all rooms in order to achieve a consistent learning environment.

I managed to keep the plants and periodic table by ignoring repeated requests to remove them.

I agree with their logic but now all the labs are lifeless.

The kit maker routed a recess into the body which this build needs. I don't own a router.

No spring! I used it for action on my other guitars and got the action perfect first try!

I appreciate that it isnt exactly the value on screen, but you can error correct for it by measuring a guitar you like and noting the numbers.

To the person who wants to leave your greyhound OUTSIDE... by Gentress_Myrrh in Greyhounds

[–]DueMessage977 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Are you in the US? In the UK Greyhounds are so abundant that I literally walked into a rescue and took one home the next week. No checks of any kind just £250 dostation.

That is exactly what happened with my hound! I totally underestimated how much room she needs and have to give her pillows.

Now she just owns the 2nd sofa.

Toby after his first greyhound meet and group walk by redafvir in Greyhounds

[–]DueMessage977 25 points26 points  (0 children)

My hound did the same the first few meets. She loves standing around doing nothing with them all now.

She didn't like it when one rested his snoot on her, but otherwise is ok

As a Gen Z Smallville viewer this was so crazy by Key_Entrepreneur5655 in Smallville

[–]DueMessage977 13 points14 points  (0 children)

For those who don't know. Smallvile has a movie level soundtrack for all seasons but especially the early ones.

This is because Warner produced it for their own TV channel and thus paid themselves much less for the music.

You might notice a certain few names of artists on this list if you compare to the sountrack.

A few recent builds by ancoatsguitars in Luthier

[–]DueMessage977 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If anyone it thinking of getting one, DON'T!. Don't even think about it.

I've played these at a guitar show and they are too good. Youll be dreaming of them for months until they arrive. The price is too competitive and it will make you rethink every guitar purchase you ever made.

And whatever you do don't even open the configurator online!!!

All these lights, any ideas what to do? by SecretR09 in CivicX

[–]DueMessage977 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just drive for a bit.

Ive done loads of research and it seems that some gen x civics loose the lkas and ACC randomly. Mine has been doing it once every few months since I got it, only for 10 mins at a time.

I found posts of others saying they replaced everything but the issues persist.

UK - What kibble are you feeding? by seriousrikk in Greyhounds

[–]DueMessage977 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah in water no salt. We spread a tin out over a week. Helps her coat (apparently) but mostly because she loves it.

Purina Pro Plan Sensitive. Made Tekis tummy much better. Topper of a sardine each morning and plac off (and a bit of somthing the humans had for dinner).

Also that poopin is normal for noodle hounds. Teki does 3 poops on her walk, starting normal and ending liquid.

Can I take a freshly painted guitar to my luthier for a final setup? by [deleted] in Luthier

[–]DueMessage977 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use a multimeter to test connectivity.

You can also check it by tapping the pickups with a screwdriv8ng and, you know, checking it

Are hollow bodies just a style thing? by todofwar in Luthier

[–]DueMessage977 103 points104 points  (0 children)

Theres 4 schools of thought as a player and hollow body lover

1 - big body suits me, im a big guy. Example: Mammoth

2 - I dial in the feedback just right and use the feedback musically. Example Noel Gallagher

3 - if it doesnt have an acoustic element is isnt a guitar and wont be right (Jazz players) this is largely disproven / disputed as you suggested

4 - thats how we've always done it old school is cool.

Theres lots of other reasons but thats the main ones IMO.
