These may cost more than most players can afford so they buy $10-12 a pair ones and install them... But some adjustment may be needed so tha the 2 C clamps per barrel are loosened barely and the nut grooves are barely widened to allow strings to glide smoothly.... Any lubricant can be used with a toothpick to allow wtrings to sld in the nit slots smoothly.

I have the gold classical pealoid machine heads, with the two angels on each one. Sublime they are! I have a top shelf set of Ortegas on another and they easily match theirs x

Thank you

Hi and thanks for the video. Do you know if the brand have is own website?

Could you comment on the benefit of using the damp cloth over presoaking the sides in water please?

where did you get the black tuning pegs? ive been looking everywhere

Cheers! Have avoided my own setups for years because could never find anyone who explains to measure from the bottom of the string!! Ta, again!

What about the other 4 strings?

I feel like this is a tool I would use less as a necessity and moreso out of respect for the craft and instrument. Does it stress the knobs or connections at all when trying to just pry it free by hand?

so what ? Different money available, different ability to play, and on and on makes a difference.

When i look down the neck to see if the frets are uniformly spaced, I see the first fret sticking out noticeably. Would turning the truss 360 help to straighten that? I have good action on the guitar but after weeks of adjustments the high E string is just a tiny bit sharp at the overtone octave. I haven't seen any advice anywhere on this. Is it too radical an idea?

Things I do not like about the GT1996 is the 5mm arm and the huge studs, which make it too close to a humbucker rout. I play an Axis same trem but 6mm arm. With proprietary fine tuners and studs.

do the saddles have a hole with a small metal cover on the bottom, or are they like the post-2021 floyds and the bottom of the saddle has no hole?

Fender uses A, Gibson uses B. I prefer B because it allows me to clean up a 1 channel over-driven amp before the volume drops. I noticed that my volume drops too suddenly on my Strat's.

So it has grooves that the screws rest in to keep it from moving side to side? That's bass ass groovy.

Nope you need to put those in a magnetized tray or they might get spilled on the floor and for everyone that does..... it could lead into a domino effect of bad things happening. The sound was kinda cool though... reminds me of the Lawrence welk show.

Calling TUSQ material "plastic" is NOT correct. If anything, TUSQ is most likely some sort of ceramic material.

TUSQ is easily the best nut material to use. I just replaced one on a Strat style guitar with a preslotted TUSQXL and all I had to do was sand down the height until the first fret clearance was right when holding down the strings at the third fret and I was golden with 10-46 strings. The manufacturer used NuBone which was a version of this material but they only filed the slots down poorly instead of sanding the nut height and got terrible results and deep slots robbing the tone from the instrument. The slots only need to be deep enough to keep the wound strings in so they don't pop out ( about half way or so ).

Very well said.👍

I have a problem where the saddle on the low E is so far back that the string sits perpendicularly, as opposed to be slanted at an angle. It's the only position where the intonation is good. Is that gonna 'cause any problems? Would a modern style bridge help?

I'm so glad you took the time to show us the duration and have chosen a wood that is not that easy to bend. Appreciate this.

Great video Sean. Any plans to do a refretting/fret installation video on an acoustic?

Hi Shane, I don’t use a bending iron any more, made a jig with heat blanket , but I learnt a lot if I use the bending iron by what you describe the marking points, centre and bouts , regards John Brassell.

I'm trying to decide between 2 different vintage Yamahas and the push/push control threw me. Thanks for clarifying that it's just a different mechanism!

I was told that bone is the best for Tremelo using and for guitar tuning stability and I have found that Bone is quite nice for that

Where to find "quality" push/push pots? Most of the ones I've run into are mediocre quality at best.

I really enjoy Gotoh Floyd Rose. Smooth as butter and stays in tune.

I run my post heights opposite to how yours were set up. DG the highest, AB middle height, EE lowest. In an effort to decrease the break angle of the headstock.

Where is the sound comparison?

Brilliant…..Many thanks

What size is the saw？

Nice presentation......Thanks!

I thought you are supposed to put a capo on the first fret when measuring the string height at the 12th fret. Does it matter? Which is the right way?

Can i use B for Volume and A for Tone?

Do you like using the diamond file? I would think one downside is that it isn't as long as the leveling beam.

Is that a real natural piece? If so… wow. What does something like that cost?

Any Drop-In Replacement's for a Sterling Stingray SS-4 Bass ? I will Purchase them ASAP - appreciate any information.

Very cool!! \m/

This was great advice! 🙋🙏

Cheers m8.

I now own a Ibanez gio grgr120ex. It's a left handed strung as a rh. I'd love to put locking tuners on

Interesting. I suspect I need a luthier and checkup.

You didn't mention measurements in the nut slots which is very important to get right and avoid string buzz and good feel of the strings.

That's a very handy tip,thank you.👍

Awesome 👍

Great little quick check to diagnose basic probkems.

My Yamaha Pacifica has a linear volume pot. It is by far the best experience I've had with controling the volume on any of my guitars. Why anyone would suggest audio taper is a better solution for volume knobs, is beyond me.

And if you’re a bass player you can go and get stuffed. The official order appears to be electric guitarists, acoustic guitarists, classical guitarists, and stick your bass where the sun doesn’t shine.

Is bunya pine a viable option for a classical soundboard? There seems to be no shortage of bunya topped steel strings, but not many bunya nylon strings - any reason for that?
