Or is it the staytrem........
Let the battle commence
Congrats.
Having had a good fiddle with it last night (stop sniggering at the back there) I reckon I can get this one adjusted to where I want it - but it's going to be a right pita when swapping strings etc.
At the very least I'm going to have to swap out the springs on the intonation adjustment screws as they are old and have lost most of their spring.. Which means the saddles are moving around more than is ideal.
I also need to pull the trem off and have a look at the spring there as the spring screw is very stiff.
Is there a way of talking about this without it being a total innuendo fest?
Start with the staytrem, it's half the price and if you don't like it you can sell it on for £50-£55. I personally prefer it with the fatter posts.
I said maybe.....
B&B Jags do look the biz.
Indoor pics do look a bit more natural.
Got the old ruler out and measured the fret height. Well under 1mm on all frets. Eek. Original frets and they are waaaay low.
So it's been dropped off for a refret. This one is a player and I don't want to compromise just to keep originality. Slightly more complicated as its bound edge but there you go. Tech is also putting a proper maple shim in the neck rather than the factory fag packet special as well..
This vintage guitar business is a whole different world when you are used to new guitars!! (Even with the worn frets it plays better than my 2016 LP which is scary enough!)
