Just hoping that my body doesn't continue to fall to bits too rapidly and that I'm able to keep gigging for another year.

Great review as usual Discreet

I used Lemon Oil for years and never had any problems with it but for the last year or so, since my wife bought my a bottle, I've been using this. I'm really impressed with it, only a tiny amount is needed and it can be used not only for the fret board but the whole instrument, including strings and hardware. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Dr-Ducks-String-Electric-Acoustic-guitars/dp/B00FA3GROU

Happy to start a thread and recommend Signal Path. Bought a gig bag from me, great comms and paid immediately.

What a great find and a good looker. Give us an update, once you've bonded a bit

Nice work, looks great

They both had brilliant house bands. They both turned out material that I loved and some that didn't do it for me.

For the first time in well over twenty years my house is a Wal free zone and I don't like it I will be looking to get another I think, even though I'm pretty sure most of them are too heavy for me to gig with these days. There are a whole lot of lovely instruments to consider. I would be taking my time, doing the research and looking at Dingwall, Lull, Spector, Fender, G&L, Alpha, ACG etc.

Do you play Mustang Sally? Do you play Brown Eyed Girl? Do you play Alright Now? Do you play Johnny B Goode?

What a splendid outcome, like you say, shame it took so long to get there. Although maybe that makes it all the sweeter

When I hit a wrong 'un, everyone scowls but guitarist faux pas seem to mostly go unnoticed.

I would probably have gone for this if the colour was more to my liking. Great instruments and very shoulder friendly

Unless you have a very high tech insulation system, it's got to be a no no. Temperature variations are just too extreme.

A few years back I modded a VM Jazz. The biggest improvement and by far the most worthwhile mod, was replacing the already fairly decent pups with a set of Wizard 64's. I did also replace the bridge with a Baddass, which arguably looked better but I can't say, actually made any difference tonally. Personally if I were considering modding another one, I probably wouldn't change the existing bridge but if it needed changing, then my choice would be a Gotoh 201, which I think is better value, better looking and better for getting a lower string height, without the need to shim the neck.

I've used this site a few times for saddle screws and other bits and pieces http://www.allparts.uk.com/collections/screws-and-springs
