  1. I’m an old man who is tech challenged. I will be visiting my son and grandsons tomorrow, they will be able to help me post pictures.

    I believe after seeing the photos, most would agree that there is an issue. Whether or not something gets done, I won’t hold my breathe!

     

  2. I bought a new L-00 Standard a year ago in May 2021.

    Last week I noticed the finish flaked off of the fretboard side, the length of the first fret. This would be the area where neck binding would be. Then I noticed the finish was defective along the tire length of the nut!

    When I first got the guitar the last 5 or 6 frets along the surface of the fretboard was covered with a white substance that I just can’t remove. I thought, oh well, I can live with it, but the finish flaking off is, to me, not acceptable on a $2700.00 guitar.

    A well known online supplier said it is normal wear, caused by hands. That is not true, even thumb over fretting doesn’t touch that area. I was told that’s just the way it is with that type of finish.

    If I knew how to post photos I would.

    Any L-00 owners out there with newer models having this same issue?

  3. I’m contemplating adding a strap button to the treble side of the neck heel on my L-00 Standard manufactured in 2021.

    I will attempt this on my own, but first I’ll try on a Recording King parlor.

    My question is what strap button and where to purchase it? Are there buttons for acoustics only?

    I don’t care for the headstock attachment varieties.  I have a PRS parlor that came with both strap buttons and I love it!

    Any assistance is appreciated. By the way, I tried a search to no avail.
