King Tut

I had a similar bridge problem with a MIM Jazz - ie bridge saddles lowering themselves. This is easily fixed with a tiny dab of loctite on each saddle screw.

I gotta learn to play that song and sing it as well!

I practice a LOT, and these strings are the only ones that sound great, even, crisp and full, even for months of intense playing. I've tried Rotosound and found them to be too abrasive and shortlived. I've tried Warwick Black Label, thin and weedy sounding, also very very abrasive. Fender are alright, nothing remarkable. Elixirs feel like dead strings, and sound half-dead. I've not played a better string than D'addario yet, but I'm open to change. Mark[/quote] +1 for prosteels!

High action for me - around 3 mm at the end of the fingerboard mainly - to stop the clank of the strings on the fingerboard. Can't help but get carried away when playing live!

Bought some strings from here . . [url="http://www.newstrings.co.uk/"]http://www.newstrings.co.uk/[/url] ,3 sets, 2 arrived the next daywith a note saying the third set would be sent in a couple of days. Got an email today advising the third set had been despatched. Good prices and efficient service - nice! ps - I'm not connected in any way (in many senses!!) Col

Looks a good price to me!

Love the Westones dude!

I agree - tried one in a shop recently and it seemed to 'pump' or 'pulse' along with what you're playing. I think the compressors on the 12 band jobbie are different. I had an old AH300 7 - gibson era - that didn't do this - it sounded good!

I'm not gonna bite. In fact - I don't really do football - I'm a musician, so your comments are totally wasted (feels smug!)

It's not a city. We call it a city - because it is in everything but name. Don't start me off guys - I love living here.

Bought a Pod XT Live from jas. Came promptly and well packaged - cheers.

Chris drove to mine from Nottingham to pick up a Markbass cab. Nice bloke and good player - bring on the funk!!
