Frozen PuP poles


Recommended Posts

At thhe suggestion of another member I have moved this to the repair forum.

 

I have a 1955 ES 125 with the single soapbar, not a thinline but maybe someday. A couple of the adjustable poles seem frozen. I picked up the guitar about a year ago and had to have some top separation work done so I'm just getting to tweak it. What's the best way to loosen these without force. Some WD? Glad for any help because it's all original except for the tuners, the ends had done the shrink like a Lima bean dance so they were replaced with modern replicas but I saved the originals for province. Thanks

Either the previous owner, or one before, brought some of them up in a way that doesn't give a balanced response, it's a little bass heavy, and with the action it would be nice to adjust those back. One of the frozen ones is for the B string and it throws off the E response.
