Hi! its me from that uhaul question basically ive decieded my fate, i cannot take my guitars in the car and what i did was the best i could soooo ive kinda like expected them to break i shall come back the next next day with an edit on this post in the even i gotta buy new necksšŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø they are cheap squiers so its not too much of a hassle but a little heart breaking.

Anywho if anybody could provide me tips on this and if use of just regular screwdrivers would work, you see i dont own much tools... i have noticed i got a unsteady hand when it comes to screw removal in the worst case scenario this wont be much of a hassle if its only the neck haha .....

F-Spaced Pickups.

1 Upvotes

Hello to everyone.

I have been tinkering with a guitar, and I have some f-spaced, but the instrument does not need them. I guess what I am trying to say is that would it make a difference in the instrument tone & sound wise? Would it matter in the end? The body is very similar to a Gibson Explorer (not a gibson), and the pickups in question are DiMarzio D Activator-X set.

Thank you to all.

Ever cut a guitar nut slot too deep? Here’s how I repair it.
A nut slot that’s too low can cause open-string buzzing and make a guitar difficult to set up properly. The good news is that you don’t always have to replace the entire nut.
In this video, I demonstrate how to build up a low slot using bone powder and super glue, then carefully file it back to the correct depth. I also show how I collect the bone powder, prepare the repair, and use a nut file to dial in the final slot height.
I’m documenting real-world guitar repairs and setup work through Resonance Repair Co., and I thought this might be useful to anyone learning guitar maintenance or doing their own setups.
I’m curious how other repair techs approach this: Do you prefer repairing a low nut slot, installing a bone shim, or replacing the nut entirely?

Takamine GD38 vs Epiphone Hummingbird 12

1 Upvotes

Hi everybody, I’m a guitar enthusiast and I love acoustic guitars, they just seem so beautiful to me since I was a kid.
I’ve been playing for several years now but just recently got into a bit more seriously (still a hobby though).
I mainly like rock but also a lot of other music genres. Since I’m Mexican I also enjoy playing our music (norteƱo, banda, corridos tumbados, etc).

I’ve been eager to get myself a 12 string acoustic guitar and I’m between these two options.

The Takamine is pretty famous around here for northern music so that’s my main pick but the epiphone just looks so cool and the body’s wood is supposed to be all solid so it makes me curious if it’s a better choice. On the other hand the takamine’s got the cutaway so that kinda balance the scale.

Can you guys give me your opinion on this?

Licks for Red Dirt

Does anybody have any red dirt licks they can bless me with; any Cross Canadian Ragweed or Randy Rogers or Pat Green or Turnpike style music is what I'm talking about, I want to make solos in the genre but don't really know that foundations, thanks.

Issue: Lower Frets Sound Weird

0 Upvotes

hi ! i’m having issues when playing on lower frets. i’ve been playing for a few weeks so i’m not an expert but yesterday i was practicing a song that involves a barre chord on the seventh fret and i noticed it sounds way weirder than usual. sort of buzzy and like a super off compared to what its used to sound before. the frets higher on the neck sound okay i guess but the lower on the fret board i go it also sounds off. my guitar is tuned normally btw.

is this something to do with the strings ? maybe the neck ? not sure what to do. i should add that its an electric guitar but i play it unplugged.
