Having watched with interest about the production of graphite necks by Status, and noting David Fung's recent comment comparing them to an L-2 neck, I have a...
I would just use the built-in GTR tempered tuning settings on the strobostomp...those offsets sound better to me for a non-Buzz Feitan'd guitar than the Buzz...
Wow. Thanks for such a detailed response. I do not type well, so I always try to be fairly brief.... :) I have a cheapo peterson tuner. I will consult the...

... I know they chromed a few TT's over the years, even did some in gold. Ned still has a GK with gold hardware Steve Klein personally gave him. The pin on...

Unfortunately there are many variables that affect guitar intonation and tuning. Because there is not a 1 note to string ratio the instrument is inherently...
Upon closer inspection, I believe that I need to replace the blades that rest in the posts. One has a stright edge, and the other is worn down to a U shape. I...

... I've got a similar problem. When I put new strings on my XM2 last week I noticed that the jaw on the D string is broken. This may not be the same part you...
"This is exactly why you should never use the harmonic when setting your intonation" The 12 fret harmonic is the same as the open string. This and the 12 fret...
Please have mercy on my for asking this Q again. It has been answered before but Yahoo timeouts when I try to search. Headpieces: . What kind of headpiece will...

I know I should know this, but it just hit me funny and I thought I'd just ask the group. All I've ever used for double ball strings are the LaBella STP946s...
Benny So you are saying that when setting intonation, you compare the open string to the (fretted) 12 fret? The MY set up info said to fret at the 24th fret,...

The great thing about a forum like this is that we all can learn from each other :-). You can always use the open string if you prefer. I always feel that...
