Pacemaker ?

You can use copper tape to hold it down

I recall a feature on U2 in “making music” mag c. 1990 where edge says AC “uses a little compression and nothing else” (then)

And they’ll make you wear silly clothes

Guess that’s why 12 bars are popular …

I was referring to monty python holy grail - “lady in the lake her arm clad in shimmering samite held aloft Excalibur…” if LZ can drag Gollum in I don’t see why prog mightn’t go a bit myths and legends

Is someone waiting in there to throw a sword at him? Make him king … that kind of thing ?

The extended version is much better. His battered precision was my model for my own relic P - I find him quite inspirational still as I once did think “I can do that” do agree they’ve run a bit dry recently

Hello and welcome back nice sunburst finish perhaps ?

I’m hugely fond of the baseline to “please” very funky

I thought his name was Ken …

Thicker strings are harder to pull so the truss rod needs to exert more force to resist them. Thinner strings are being pulled against the fret board as the truss rod is resisting more than needed. You therefore need to reduce tension on the truss rod I imagine it as a tug of war where a team member leaves on one side - with him the two sides are evenly matched

That is indeed a Mary Kay finish - very hard to do well

Need screwdrivers / Allen keys / feeler guages I also got a steel ruler and an oilstone as it’s wide and abrasive

I learned to do it … it’s easy with help of @Andyjr1515 and some other kind folks - read through and only used an£11 kit from eBay - link is in the thread

Probably overbow given the lighter strings - just release truss rod

Johnny depp also I think

@TimR Hammond - had an Inca silver jazz at one point (mph at brum)

I’d like to play with the whole of her. I’d register as a charity and donate to it and also to her choice of charity - which is only fair unde the circumstances

I just take a p bass - it handles everything

You could hang on to the yellow one for a bit and make it into double digits 🏆

You should buy it in blue and yellow …

Ed Friesland endorses it

Just Killing all guitar noise is fine by me - they don’t need to die as without a guitard they make no weedy sounds

Does that kill noise on all guitars ? Just wondering …. 😉
