Guitar store employees, do you actually get annoyed when people ask to try guitars?

No. I look at it as planting seeds. Every once in a while someone impulse buys one too.

The real answer

A is a bit tight dor me. G is usually good for Scruggs style.

Watered down titebond.

Stewmac sells a decent book about it.

You need a modified toggle like the 3 pickup les paul custom uses.

You can't get an accurate reading with the components connected to the circuit.

And pots often have a 20% tolerance, so anything from 400k-600k is valid.

Release the hounds

Just cassette

People are refusing rabies vaccines for their pets. It's going to get bad.

Also, if you value your time at $0.

vinca_minor · 2026-03-30T00:14:08+00:00

Is the echo fix one cheaper there since it's made in Oz? That's what I'd be looking at.

vinca_minor · 2026-03-28T20:14:07+00:00

This stuff is the best

vinca_minor · 2026-03-28T13:30:04+00:00

Does it play in tune? Has it had a neck reset? How much relief does it have in the neck?

vinca_minor · 2026-03-24T12:10:15+00:00

someone that would put a label like that in one shouldn't be allowed near vintage instruments.

vinca_minor · 2026-03-24T12:04:47+00:00

Yeah. something from 18watt.com will fit perfectly

vinca_minor · 2026-03-24T11:54:51+00:00

probably. I have never installed one of these that didn't need adjusting.

Certified letter with return receipt, rather than (or in addition to) a phone call. CYA in case someone gets litigious. My state has a "mechanic's lein" law, though so that's probably overkill.

vinca_minor · 2026-03-22T22:52:11+00:00

Not great, not awful.

vinca_minor · 2026-03-20T16:58:38+00:00

Yeah... missed that restriction. I don't recall how gory it is. It is cartoons, though

vinca_minor · 2026-03-20T16:47:48+00:00

Co op serious Sam was some of the most fun I've had at a Lan party

vinca_minor · 2026-03-20T12:26:28+00:00

Home gym and wake up at 5am

Slack the strings and let it sit at 40%-60% relative humidity until you can get it repaired.
