THat's what I was hoping to hear. :-) Truth is, I didn't know how to do my own set ups, at all. Or solder. Didn't even know that you could shim a neck, or why you would. It's been a learning guitar, and honestly, plays great. (Don't want to be disloyal, we're friends.) Doesn't quite get the tone I like for some things though...

There isn't much to choose from around here, though- so it may take me a while to find the one I want locally. (Epi LP in the Andes, anyone?)

In the mean time, I'm spending the money I "saved" on setting up on lessons, but am keeping some back in case I run into what I'm looking for. (What is my girlfriend gonna think..the house is filling up with guitars...)

Meantime- next tinkering moment: How do you put a humbucker on this thing?


Best,

Well, now, maybe your guitar does need a bit of constant attention. Just think how much money you'd have spent if you didn't know how to do your own setups. Probably hundreds if not thousands. So with the money you've already saved by doing your own work, now you can go get another guitar and keep on tweaking, thus saving even more money every time you do it yourself. That additional savings can then go toward a third guitar, or amp upgrade, etc. Nice logic, eh? I should be a government economist ...]]> Guitar Repair and Maintenance slejhamer https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/always-setting-up-my-guitar/#post-277499 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/always-setting-up-my-guitar/#post-277492 Mon, 14 Jan 2008 14:40:12 +0000 Guitar Repair and Maintenance Dommy09 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/always-setting-up-my-guitar/#post-277492 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/always-setting-up-my-guitar/#post-277488 Mon, 14 Jan 2008 12:48:23 +0000 Guitar Repair and Maintenance TRGuitar https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/always-setting-up-my-guitar/#post-277488
