  1. How cool is that. https://www.stewmac.com/luthier-tools-and-supplies/types-of-tools/routers-and-bits/bits/guitar-screw-rescue-kit
  2. I did think that, but you'd still have to lift the bridge to get the copper tape under. Unless you soldered the tape to the bridge plate, but it'd take a lot of heat and might not look so neat.
  3. Not really, there's no way the drill would stay on the screw and not slip down and into the wood.
  4. Out of interest, how would a professional extract screws that had snapped flush with the surface of the wood?
  5. I've got a face like a slapped arse and play like a drunken gibbon. I could 'mentor*' some of your pretty virtuosos. *dementor?
  6. There was always plenty of footage of close-ups on Pete's guitar while John's playing his solo on My Generation!
  7. You could likely clean the bridge with a wet and dry sanding block without removing it. Just protect the paintwork (!) with a few layers of gaffer tape. I'd be very wary of shearing the screws; they'd be a bugger to extract if they lost their heads
  8. Looks good...usual questions, what nut width, how deep is the neck behind 1st fret, weight? cheers
  9. I need to try that. Turning up the bridge pup seems to fight the (juicy) neck pup when wired 'normal'
  10. So they did, hadn't noticed that! I guess the badge rotates 🙂
  11. Definitely paint it black. Or vinyl wrap it.
  12. You could paint it black 😀
  13. That bright box was clearly designed not to offer any brightness to anyone not standing directly in front of it
  14. If the store has a reasonable returns policy, I'm fine with buying blind.
  15. I think Tokai made my Fender badged precision neck. It's a corker.
  16. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/b00776mx "Paul Gambaccini recalls The Stax Volt Tour of 1967 which brought to Europe soul greats Otis Redding, Sam and Dave, and Booker T and the MGs"
  17. I'm on a Micky Xenon bilge rat!
  18. That's interesting...any idea how they came to that conclusion? Is this behind the Music Man 3+1? I'd always thought it partly a novelty, partly a neck-dive cure.
  19. "I'll have what they're taking!"
  20. I had one. Sounded superb.
  21. Ftfy 😉 The answers to OPs original question are 100% good points well made.
  22. You can use the front panel tape in, but you'll need to bypass the input selector switch, as it will apply tape eq when tape input is selected. It's easy though,just wire it to the junction of C3 and R7 on the schematic I posted (I assume your mono version has the same numbering)
