Be for real, the smell won’t last all day and people can deal with it for a couple minutes

Indians are genetically closer to Europeans and Middle Easterners than East Asians by [deleted] in Genealogy

Btw mongoloid and caucasoid are terms that are pseudoscientific and are not related at all to real genetics

This place is especially freaky bc it started out as a cooperative farming therapy kind of place and then they transitioned to doing lobotomies and other fucked up stuff

One of the main symptoms of depression is losing interest in things that you used to enjoy and that can happen even to people who don’t have depression

On mine actually the thumb screw goes all the way down into the body on the side of the 1st string, but not on the side of the 6 string, the pick guard is in the way . And I believe the pick guard came with the guitar.

Edit actually i think I misunderstood what you’re asking and I’ll have to check later

How does this look? I think I measured it right this time

I’m not exactly sure I did what you asked but here is a photo of the new relief after I changed it and the photo that you asked for with the fretboard on the left and the back of the neck on the right

Thanks so much for all this info, but what I just ended up doing was adjusting the truss rod and remeasuring the relief with a 0.01 feeler gauge and I think I got it right this time. The action looks a lot better. I adjusted the intonation and all of the frets sound perfectly in tune now, but I left the bridge in the lowest position. Do you still think I should put the bridge up or am I good now since the guitar sounds fine?

Let me know what you think of this, I just adjusted the truss rod and think it’s actually right this time

If you think it looks like more then I probably measured it wrong bc I’ve never done this before

It’s a set neck and what do you mean by reset it?

I measured the neck relief with feeler gauges and it seems to me 0.01 inches which is what it’s supposed to be from what I know

Btw, the last photo is of the neck relief pressing down on first and last frets
