I am tempted to mod my Peavy Rage 158 but need to finish the After Eighty first.#

Me too.

I don't understand your point. Are you saying that Is wrong?

I have not used DeOxit D-5 but have used Servisol Super 10 for years. As for the fan propelling dust into the pot, I would appreciate @agedhorse comments but I was always told that much of the "dirt" in pots comes from wear on the tracks. I must admit though that in my early days, fans were few and far between.

That WOULD be stunning.

That is a thing of beauty.

I would have agreed with you before I fell in love with my Aerodyne.

If you are obsessed with Tonewoods you should read about the Leonado Guitar Research Project. https://sites.google.com/site/leonardoguitarresearch/LGRP-in-American-Lutherie

I would take a punt at £100.

Nice work.

Wow you have a Rail? I am not worthy. Seriously, I often wondered wheter that started as a development tool to check pickup position.

Socially distanced boat race? Interesting.

Ah but that was science fiction..............

Ironically there is a Cambridge vaccine, it is a long way behind but uses a novel way of injection, without a needle using compressed air.

The Oxford vaccine is due to reveal its phase 3 trial results in December. Fingers crossed.

The Bugera is really about 700W and the difference between 700W and 500W is very little acoustically.

You need the angle of the shim, just raising the neck will not work unless you use a very thick piece of wood. Also 2mm is qiute a low action, how low do you want go?

Same here, found an OF band full of good blokes, no EGOs, still rehearsing when we can. Have tow gigs booked next Summer.

Trouble is that was for MMR.

Saul, Before you do anything too drastic, loosen the strings and try to loosen the truss rod. Assumming that works, tighten it again until the neck is staight. That should put the neck close to the right setting once you put the strings back on. Also those bridge saddles seem a long way back. Adjust the intonation before you take the neck off as part of your problem may be the the saddles are too far back and hence out of intonation. If the neck is still bent, do the clamping trick above, then put the shim in and adjust.

Almost correct. All Japanese words have been translated phonetically into English. Go Toe is right BUT in Japanese each syllable is the same length and quite short ( don't tell the Americans that there is no she in Hiroshima). I have included a sound sample with my amatuerish pronunciations of Gotoh, Hiroshima and Matsushita (the original name for Panasonic). Japanese pronunciations..m4a

We were due to rehearse on Sunday but our drummer had to isolate until Tuesday. Who knows when we will rehearse again let alone gig.

Sadly all my optimisn has gone.
