I want to purchase a 600T on-board electronics package (w/ aux input) from a hopelessly damaged Alvarez. (They don't...refuse...to sell one, or install it in...
HI, I JUST JOINED YOUR GROUP. I LIVE IN MEXICO, AND I'M ON THE MARKET FOR A NEW GUITAR. I WANT TO SPEND AROUND $200 USD, WHAT DO YOU RECOMEND?? I WAS CHECKING...
I bought a Washburn D-10 Acoustic a couple of years ago that sounds great! I went through many of the same model until I found one that had that bright and ...
I too, have a Washburn, a D-12. However none of the other guitars, D-10 or 12 sounded as good. I guess that's one of the joys in the search...to find that...
Hi everyone, Could medium gauge strings on an acoustic guitar cause the bridge to pull away from the body? I play a Larrivee om-09, purchased new about six...
Hey Mark, Medium gauge strings will apply more tension to the guitar than light strings, and the more tension, the more likely for neck to bow or mounted...
I get a lot of that in the shop....and it doesn't matter who the maker is. It could be from excessive string tension, but sometimes the glue just fails, or...
Mark, From a fellow OM-09 owner: your guitar should handle medium gauge strings with no problem - I think you will find confirmation of that on the larrivee ...
I agree! Keep on looking for YOUR perfect guitar, because only YOU know the sound that you want! ... ===== Lupe Gamez __________________________________ Do...
Incidentally, my Washburn D-10 ran about $149.99 US, well within your price range! ... ===== Lupe Gamez __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC...
Greetings: Electric guitars have a ground wire that attaches to the bridge and goes to the electrical innards, so that when one touches the strings, that...
Not sure of your system, but the only time I've ever heard a hum out of putting pickups/preamps in an acoustic was when I switched the "ground" and "in" leads...
Mark- John (the luthier) here. All guitars should hold up to medium gauge strings unless they are marked for lights only. Even then, the bridge should stay...
Nick, John, Vince, and Ken, Thank you for sharing your knowledge and advice. I did contact someone at Larrivee who said that the guitar should have no...

A few years ago I had a new Martin 12 string with the same problem. More likely the glue job just didn't work properly. Don't Panic - simply de-string, and get...
Just a question out of curiosity: Those of you who are around repair work frequently, do you notice particular brands that have more glue breakdowns than...
All brands on this end. Rare I see bindings just come loose though. Actually it's pretty much the other way around on the humidity issue regarding joint...
There are four books which form the theoretical foundation for my understanding of the guitar. These books are: THE COMPLETE GUITARIST, THE GUITARIST HANDBOOK,...
Yea, my brother-in-law bought one like that...took him two years to figure out the damn thing was just a wall decoration. I still have a hard time thinking...
First Things First: Homework! (Robert Fripp Sets The AGENDA.) "Your ability to play music on the guitar depends to a large extent on how well you know the...
... An old saying amongst salespersons fits here: "the best deal is not always the lowest price". Please do not buy this guitar. It will only lead to...
I have to chime in here: you might as well flush your $50 down the toilet. There is no such thing as a playable $50 guitar. Upping the ante to a couple of...
I'm a builder, and for what that's worth,.... I get a lot of emails asking me "what's a good beginner gutiar" and sometimes I'm even asked to physically go...
Hi, I generally just lurk, but VP mentioned Simon and Patrick guitars in this thread and I felt I had to throw in my opinion. That could be because I'm hugely...
