I just ordered a BDGT-7 from beatstreetmusic.com. THey say it doesn't have a manual. Does anybody have info on the preamp, and care of the instrument? Let me...
I have one of these beauties, also w/o manual. I found a manual on the web - on the Conklin site, I think. I don't seem to have saved it (didn't find it),...
Thanks Matt: I finally got it. It's beautiful. Have you tweaked the innards? How do you have it strung? I'm thinking of F#-C ... the ... I've ... doesn't ... ...
I have mine B-F. I didn't tweak anything - didn't need to :-) F#-C would be interesting - I don't use the F string all that much. ... -- Matt A. Wood,...
Matt how did you like the string height? I lowered my strings..but I think the nut needs adjusting. I can't tap comfortably. I think I'll wait "till I get the...
I had to do a full setup: nut was too high (took it off and filed it down on the back with sandpaper), and I did a fret leveling job on it (my first :-). If...
Next question... Now I am confused about what gauge to use for the F# and who I should get it from. Conklin has a .165 (S.I.T. Power Steel) and a .150...
I believe La Bella is now making F# strings. Chances are that GHS does, too. Stew steelpulz <Steelpulz@...> wrote: Next question... Now I am confused...
Thanks for the infoeStew. I called La Bella and GHS. Neither has a .165 gauge or bigger. I think that LaBella (or was it D'Addario) said that they could do...
bummer, man. sorry. from my experience with both strings -- and these are opinions -- the Snakeskin is a fine string but it doen't hold its "edge" long. the...
I emailed knuckleguitarworks.com and got a response from Skip. He wrote tat he had .180 gauge F# string and recommended that over Conklin's .160 gauge. Does...
although technically subharmonics are not the notes we can reproduce on musical instruments. I should have written sub-lows. apologies, all! Stew steelpulz...
Skip has done extensive research into the subharmonic range and into what it takes to reproduce those tones. I trust him but haven't tried the strings. Stew ...
180 F# huh? does it have the overlong exposed core like the SIT string? ... _________________________________________________________________ FREE pop-up...
I have a GTBD-7. I love it! But I have some questions about the Bartolini preamp. According to the schematic from Conklin Guitars, there is a trimpot level...
sorry. not only am I a passive guy in terms of electronics but I generally don't have knobs or switches aside from a kill/standby, pickup selector or coil tap....
hey all, my new Conklin has arrived and I am staggered by its beauty, sound and playability! you can believe this will be on the upcoming album! pics and...
I have a GTBD-7 (Conklin). I am using a 9v lithium battery. I thought it would last longer than an alkaline. However, I was perusing Ibanez' website and in an...
I would think that it would be unlikely that you would damage anything by using a lithium over an alkaline battery. "9 volts" is still just "9 volts", if you...
hey all, I suspected the last member was a spammer when she joined (based solely on the URL of "her" email address), but I did not pre-emptively delete her. my...
yeah.. I've done that on a few of the groups that I moderate.. and I add a line on the banner that goes like this... "When joining, please leave a comment so I...
ha ha ha ha ha! thanks, Brian. anyone else? opinions? input? if a couple more people chime in about the nature of membership I'll run it past Bill Lancton and...
