Dylan Talks Tone Recieves Commision From Some Of These Links

[@MV-ue5ro]

I was pretty sure to buy the pro2 , glitter surf green…….after your video ….i just came home with my vintage 2 surf green!! Greetings from Milan, Italy

[@cameronsliger7301]

Thanks for asking. Fender Stratocaster w/floating bridge and Squier Baritone Paranormal Telecaster. Keep the knowledge coming.

[@paullanglois3768]

This is a useful video - I just got a new tele that I've been too lazy to setup, . That fingerboard is so beautiful - even cooler with the old school dots. Thanks Dylan!

[@danielrentel9747]

Thanks Dylan. Now it would be nice to get a video on how to set up a Les Paul

[@Zundfolge]

I really look forward to seeing if you have some cool tricks for intonating a Floyd.

[@davidjairala69]

I'd love to see you deep dive jazzmasters, especially the gdmf tremolo!

[@enriquemendez1507]

Would this also apply to an American professional ii? Obviously not everything but I notice some similarities. Thanks! And I love these kind of videos. They are always too short or not informative enough

[@dwolivas]

This video is awesome. Thanks for the info and the love. I'd watch one of these a week to see how you tackle different guitars (let's be honest, none of us have just one).

[@ChadwickRider]

Beautiful Tele

[@ScottfromBaltimore]

Good basic stuff with all the details. Thanks!

[@eddiejr540]

Dylan…you are 100% correct…I set my necks straight and let the string tension pull just a tiny bit of relief into the neck…works perfect 👍

[@primeDecomposition]

If you have a few low nut slots, you can do the baking soda-super glue trick or stewmac sells a kit (basically the same thing) to fix individual slots. Don’t have to install a whole new nut. Also, the treble strings need less nut clearance than the bass strings, so you can do .012”-.015” on the treble strings and .020” on the wound strings, they needn’t all be the same height.

Setting the action on a guitar with a compound radius is something I’d like to see. Basically I’d like to know how to figure out how flat the radius of the bridge should be.

[@mirkojovanovic3216]

great video and tips. would be nice to see all done on a acoustic guitar.

[@charleswallace5818]

Thanks for sharing this with us. Les Paul or strat would be nice. Have a blessed day

[@Seastone84]

Moisturizing vs hydration. I drink lotion to stay hydrated. 😂

[@timscarrow9151]

Dylan is a lefty too.

[@TheRealDealBobbySteele]

Let’s get some more 👍

[@rusty6314]

Can you do a set-up with that sideways vibrato commonly seen on a SG?

[@donaldgoguen9065]

Who is considered the big dogs these days? So much of the production is done at the contract level, I feel it goes beyond brand to separating via premium lines vs cost reduced overseas production. Some years ago, I got a tour of the Samick production facility in Incheon. Most of the cheap production stuff had already been moved to Indonesia but has since been all moved to China. Kind of a shame as the Incheon plant did some really nice work. I saw a lot of names on headstocks that surprised me. Cheap guitars have certainly gotten better but have the premium ones improved and by how much?

[@georg.camerone56]

Stock pups?

[@jeffeinam7257]

Am std strat please

[@matt926uk1]

sounds like your pickups are too high

[@DylanTalksTone]

Nope

[@matt926uk1]

@@DylanTalksTone Why does it sound so bad then?

[@fisheatingjoe]

@@matt926uk1 Because your ears don't like that sound.
