I've been watching Dave for 9 years. I've seen every guitar and bass that he's set up on UA-cam. I know exactly how he does it. Yet I watch every time. It's like a religion.
Dave has a lot of weight to gain to rise to Buddha status.
@@byron7165 It is not the size of the offering that matters, only that there is one.
Jim Ford that includes trips to the shitter.
Back in the day I was watching him in his old house with the goofs next door lol!
@@DFWTF My favorite was the son who cleaned his electric lawn mower with a garden hose while it was running.
Dave, Gibson says 17th fret or where the body meets the neck. But they trademarked it so you have to pay them $20 every time you do a setup.
Thanks, Dave, for saying all the numbers, again, despite it making your head hurt. You're the best!
Absolutely love the trick with the straw Dave - many thanks for it. Teles can be right sob's for getting strings through the bridge sometimes.
Yah, that is inspired.
Another great video from good ol' Dave. Thank You!
Masterclass here, I wanna save this clip in case UA-cam melts
Great stuff! Never gets old!
I feel like Daves videos are more or less podcasts with guitar maintenance and it's amazing
Love the straw trick! Thanks Dave!
Beautiful Tele!!!
that straw tip is awsome , thank you Dave
I have no problem with the tilt neck, even the three bolt, as long as the neck fits solidly in the pocket. My first Fender ever, which I still have is a 3-bolt bullet truss rod Strat. I learned a lot about setup on that guitar.
I like the straw trick for gettin those stubborn strings through the bridge. Thanks for the tip!👍😎🎸🎶
The straw trick is absolute gold.
that straw trick...you're a genius!
Thanks Dave 👍
The straw trick is brilliant!
I liked the jam at the end of your video.
Great easy peezy set up bro! Thanks for explaining the neck tilt screw and for the .011 to .012 thou I usually go to where the neck meets the body (depending on body shape) Thanks for the tip on having .020 at the 1st... Great video Dave, Thanks bro..................... Mike(Ipswich River Guitars).
I love the wd-40/jb 80 straw trick!! That’s a slick one Dave!! Great videos! I learn a ton and get a kick outta watching and listening to you! Thanks for being YOU Dave! 😎👌🏼
Glad to hear it!
Mayb just me ,,the straw wisdom is too cool , iv got 1 or 2 . Thank u Mr Dave !
Finally, a complete and clear video on how to do a proper setup. Thanks! :)
On the tilt, I usually back the top screws just off tight too, just so the tilt screw doesn't have to fight so hard.
Yo Dave! Nice to see ya.
Beautiful guitar😜
Lovely looking axe.
Just got done with a dumpster rescue, broken neck. There's a vertical crack in the rosewood fingerboard, between frets 3 and 4. Doesn't seem to affect anything. I think I'll leave it there, because trying to do anything to it would result in a trek down Gooch trail. Also leaving the repair just detectible enough to keep it honest. But, thanks. Because I couldn't, wouldn't, and shouldn't.... without Dave's world of fun stuff! ✌️🙂
thanks mate!
Love James Burton!
I love the straw tip, Good to learn something every day. Thanks
Stuff like that is why I watch this channel. I would stay for the BBQ too, but I don't have SmellTube.
Recent subscriber here, really enjoyed watching this especially since both of my Teles (USA Fender & USA G&L) have the tilt neck feature.
If you ever have a chance to adjust the MFD pups on the G&L ASAT Specials, that would be fun to watch. I’ve been playing mine since the 90s and they are tweakers. A little bit goes a long way!
THANK U , DAVE .. I AM SUBSCRIBED NOW ..
Please, do a setup for a Chapman ML2. I own one and am curious how you do it. Thanks.
Thanks for the video - when you checked the pickup height it looked like the second brass spacer bar was thinner than the first, which you said was 1/8", yet you said the latter was 3/16" (bigger than 1/8") - should it have been 3/32"? Was this wrong or are my eyes deceiving me?
I like to put a bend in the string about 1/2 inch from the end , just in the plain strings then they usually just slide right in.
Nice job
Side note re Jeff Beck (for those unfamiliar with his playing) he plays with his fingers/ no pick, so his "" is very subtle. I on the other hand, I am a "hack" used to playing acoustic guitars mostly, so I keep my guitars relief higher ( .012" like Dave sets them)
I’m going to use that straw trick , thanks for another great tip Dave !!!!
wonder if those coffee stir straws will work too.
the high humidity dropped my action down so low I cannot even bend a string above the 12th fret it just mutes out, I look down the neck don't seem much relief so i'm guessing a simple trust rod adjustment before I touch the saddles ? the action was ok in the Winter haven't used guitar since then, Thanks
I like higher action, easier banding on the chunk of my finger tip, and no fret buzz. I like it at the limite of the intonation is out of wak.
Nice...!
Everyone should own a Tele :)
Dave, do you have to reduce string tension before using the neck angle adjustment thingy?
Have a problem. I purchased a mint 2018 squier affinity telecaster. The high E is good at the nut but above 12 it gets even with the fretboard edge. I loosened the neck bolts and did the force the neck straight and re tighten the screws. This guitar is okay but I want to use it with .011 gauge strings and use it for slide only in open E. I don’t think this neck is going to stay with open tunings and higher gauge strings. What’s your thoughts? I’m thinking of getting rid of it and go for another guitar.
So when you hit the 17th fret, what should it be at the 7th? What sized feeler guage did you slip in there?
Info missing.
Hey Dave, I always see you check the relief on the neck. What is the standard neck relief for say a Strat?
Is it as or more important to establish the correct curve for each bridge saddle first, before attempting to alter the TR?
I just love that Tele. The burst , the belly cut. What is that model and year?
would have liked to be a fly on the wall while Dave was chatting with Beck's guitar tech.
Beautiful Tele!
Hope all is well Dave.
PEACE 💀👽🎸🎵🎶👍
I just got the deluxe Nashville telle caster the strings are a little high up at top of neck from th high e area towards the pick up. Do I need to adjust bridge saddles ? Thanks subscribed. The neck is straight. I'm nervous about adjusting the saddles. Thanks subscribed.
lol this was entertaining to watch, your personality is too funny. Also thx for the tutorial!!!
TELE!
❤️
Noice!
like the straw trick
Nice string hack
Dave...if the solid strings dont stretch...then how can you bend them to a higher pitch (note)??....am i an idiot cuz i dont understand...but then again...im just a dumb guitar player!!!!
Dave, thanks for the straw trick! Thanks to you, I can pretty much set up my Tele. Mine has a 3(compensated) saddle bridge, would love to see you intonate one and hear your thoughts on that sometime...
Nice little trick with the straw. A little something in every video. Why didn't I think of that?
1/8th is thinner then 3/16 :)
Did you mean 3/32 for the pickup height on the high e?
I would love that one in German speech.
Your saddles should be parallel with the body or body plate but they should also have a very slight arch from the E to E string.
The E stings should be the lowest, the A and B string should be slightly higher and the D and G should be the highest.
Just like the strings on a violin.
bullshit
You skipped the part of the video where you set the pickup heights hahaha, just what I wanted to see. I have a Telecaster from 2011 that has the neck pickup screwed to the pickup guard just like that one. Any ide on how to adjust that? It doesn't give me much room to move before the screws start going off... I mean, I screw in the direction to loosen and the screw starts to go off the pickup guard... is that normal? Thanks
I made bigger holes on the pickguard and put other longer and thicker screws which gave stability and control to it, also changed the rubber for springs.
Solid wire does stretch a bit, or you wouldn't be able to turn the top three tuners.
Make a BIG noise!
Ooooooo,tele!
wish you were close to me to set up my tele
When George Carlin is your guitar tech…
What do you mean by the term "four sixty fours"? I have the same string height tool you have and I am seeing a mark that says .040 on the metric side and nothing with a 4 in it on the other side. Please clarify.. Thanks beforehand.
he's using imperial measurement, not metric, so its 4/64
Hey Dave! I've always wondered, why the paper on the bench? Cheers!
That way gunk / schmutz / etc gets on the paper and you can replace it before the next job. No worries about something there that could get on another guitar.
Did you set each string to exactly 4/64? What radius is the neck? Will 4/64 work on a 7.25 ?radius?
string height must follow the radius..set all strings the same..you have that radius
Weird! just got a tele just like this one.. 2012 American Standard
the reason you cant find much to do to improve this guitar is because it is a MIA Fender instrument ....crafted with pride . expensive and worth it !
Skully Shoemaker?
Hey my name is Peezy, whats up?
I cant stop laughing at pink...ball...sacks... help
No reference to Happy Gilmore?
Does he really mean 20,000th of an inch at the nut? Or is it 2,000th?
What could go wrong? Its a telecaster!
+1,000,000 for the Gong reference!
St* M*c is now selling guitar shipping boxes.
Did you ever hang out with Gordon Lightfoot?
@@DavesWorldofFunStuff One of many underrated guitar players out there, I hope to see him in Gettysburg sometime in November.
Damn, i only understand milimeters
Telecaster! The ultimate 6 string phallic symbol!
Is this instructional ? Vague.
Dont be afraid to gooch up somebody else's git
Tele's only look basic. They're finnicky. If to ne is off for whatever reason they screech. Far easier to deal with an L.P. and easier to play. No offence to the Gibsonites out there.
Thanks to Dave for sharing his knowledge. He knows what he's doing.
Fender's Bi-Flex truss rod...............(sound of vomiting)
Your straw/tube solution at 6:00 tells me that you are a natural born engineer! Many people are under the misconception that you have to be skilled in mathematics to be an engineer. Nothing could be further from the truth! A good mechanical engineer is a natural born problem solver when faced with mechanical difficulties/problems. Either your mind has the ability to visualize and figure out a solution to any mechanical situation, or it does not. Mathematics has nothing to do with that ability. You can know every math style, formula in the world but if your mind is incapable of seeing solutions to mechanical difficulties you shall not solve them, hence mathematicians who often get jobs as engineered are not good engineers. People like Dave here, he's a natural born engineer and I believe he could resolve almost every mechanical issue before him. In the field, in the shop~or wherever he may be, a natural born engineer like Dave is capable of visualizing a workable solution to mechanical problems that will indeed completely stump mathematicians.
Good work Dave!
P.S. I was an artist who starved so I became a self taught engineer and eventually a senior engineer. So I am speaking from a life time of real world experience working with mathematicians who have engineering degrees and are actually incapable of solving mechanical difficulties. Even those with a P.E. Title (Professional Engineer Degree). Of course some do have mechanical aptitude but the mathematicians rarely do. If you can't think with your hands you are not all that smart at all. Also don't touch anything!
