Yeah, a good setup can often make a near-unplayable guitar a dream-come-true. Congrats!

Only one thing as important as setup.....and that is tune up! From beginners on, make sure your guitar is in tune before playing!!!

A good set up is like a finely tuned engine.

My luthier/repairer is incredible and can turn trash into treasure! So a decent Gibson becomes-----a work of art? The Guitar Whisperer!


So one time I asked him if he knew a mechanic 'like him' - and he gave me the phone number of one!
I took the car to meet him, the 'Car Whisperer'! While we met, his hands were already tinkering with my car, and he pointed out a couple of things that the NITWITS at 2 local garages had missed and then he sprayed stuff and fiddled and said I needed this and this and I would be without the car for a week, and I agreed readily. On the way home from this first meeting the car ran like it had not done in years! (And still IS).

My dog still needs the Dog Whisperer....

Don't worry you're not alone in that department.
