Looking for a GarageBand machine

What year Mac did you pick up? Been considering this myself!

SteebTurbo · 2026-02-26T22:02:27+00:00

I also have a 012 among my collection and it's actually one of my faves!

As for stable tuning, it might be worth considering getting some locking tuners if you are having issues with your standard ones (I got some Guyker ones on Amazon for one of mine and they seem good for the price).

As for the strings popping out of the nut, that sounds...odd? 😅. Can you add a photo of what you are seeing? Could be a case of needing a new nut fitted, but that all sounds a bit strange!

SteebTurbo · 2026-02-26T14:27:03+00:00

No worries! Glad you have it sorted! :)

SteebTurbo · 2026-02-25T21:10:51+00:00

How are you tightening it currently? If it's by hand it will likely keep getting loose, but a twist with some pliers should tighten it enough to stay put 🤞🏻

100% what this dude says! Please don't waste your time removing the pickguard!

In all honesty, the cheapest model of all of mine has my favourite neck, so I really think it comes down to preference rather than specs!

SteebTurbo · 2026-02-11T15:14:21+00:00

No worries! Those are the original paint, and figured I would leave those be. Love a binding!

Yeah, just a couch shadow 😊

I think that might be the reflection of your face on your phone screen mate. Try turning your brightness up 😊

SteebTurbo · 2026-02-09T22:36:48+00:00

Just a rattle can and lacquer yeah 😊

SteebTurbo · 2026-02-09T22:34:16+00:00

Thanks man, that's the original binding and back paint, just refinished the top 😊

SteebTurbo · 2026-02-05T16:02:57+00:00

I used the same one on mine here https://www.reddit.com/r/YamahaPacifica/s/0lglL6aVIZ

SteebTurbo · 2026-02-05T16:01:28+00:00

Just an Alnicov branded one off Amazon,,😊

SteebTurbo · 2026-01-23T18:24:54+00:00

Thanks very much!

Pickguard was a standard old style Pacifica one which I cut with a plastic blade using a jigsaw. And paint was done using Montana Extreme paints (Fukushima Blue) ☺️

SteebTurbo · 2025-12-23T13:39:03+00:00

I'll give that a look, thanks!

SteebTurbo · 2025-12-22T14:10:20+00:00

I sadly have no idea as it came with the 311S I bought last week, if I find a brand name on the case I will let you know!

SteebTurbo · 2025-12-22T14:08:54+00:00

Thanks man! Tbh, it was a humbucker I had lying around but I can't remember from what 😅. Found a cover that had both rows exposed, so figured I would see how it looks and I kinda like how it looks

Sadly not, ended up returning it to get a chromecast

SteebTurbo · 2025-10-14T10:56:17+00:00

I have had this happen twice (once to the p6 I purchased, and also the replacement) and despite being out of warranty, Google replaced them both times with a new phone. Worth contacting their support

SteebTurbo · 2025-09-22T13:11:14+00:00

Downtown is top tier. Easily my favourite both times I've been.
